Joined once again by our younger siblings, Erin and Akinde, we dive right into Sarah J Maas's A Court of Thorns and Roses and A Court of Mist and Fury spoilers in part two of our discussion. To kick things off, we start with our complicated feelings on main character Feyre. We also ask the hard hitting questions, like: are these sex scenes sexy? Why is there so much growling? And what would actually happen if the wings of the Illyrians were really that sensitive? As a heads up for people who adore these books: we're not here to kill your vibe! Still, while we do appreciate a lot of what Maas is doing, as well as her wider influence on pop culture, we do have some bones to pick. Also, we drop a few spoilers for some of the later books, so if you care about spoilers for books 3, 4 or 5, please be forewarned! Sorry for the delay on this one, folks!

John links up with Snarky Puppy founder and band leader Michael League to talk about how he wrote, recorded and produced the band's latest record ‘Empire Central', as well as works from Varijashree Venugopal and a new project, Ellipsis.  Michael League is an American producer, multi-instrumentalist, and founder of jazz fusion ensemble Snarky Puppy. Now with a reputation as one of the most innovative bands of the 21st century, constantly pushing the boundaries of improvisation and the styles they draw from, Snarky Puppy's 20 year back catalogue includes 16 albums, and five Grammy wins. Outside of the band, Michael has shared his production and writing talents on records from David Crosby, Becca Stevens, Varijashree Venugopal and many more. Speaking from his home studio in Spain, Michael digs into his production process, from crafting rough Logic demos and editing lengthy improvisations to blending global influences with Western jazz. He also shares the technical details of Snarky Puppy's vast recording setup and treats us to a live demo of his current go-to, the Danelectro Sitar.

Welcome to Episode #136 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with the Edinburgh-based duo, Edy Forey, to discuss their sensational debut album, 'Culture Today'. Ultimately coming to the table from vastly different musical backgrounds, Polish-born singer-songwriter Edy Szewy and Parisian pianist Guilhem Forey were able to find common ground through each of their unwavering passions for music. With Szewy predominately influenced by neo-soul and hip-hop, and Forey a devoted jazz fan, their combined efforts resulted in a sublime sonic palette that paid due praise to each's musical affections. 'Culture Today' showcases an inspired perspective on contemporary jazz-inspired neo-soul and is a project bolstered by some incredible guests including Ezra Collective's Femi Koleoso and Snarky Puppy's Michael League and Mark Lettieri. The album boasts the added distinction of Bob Power's studio wizardry throughout. We were thrilled to spend time with Edy and Guilhem to discuss how they met, the creative process, 'Culture Today' and navigating the music industry as independent artists. For more details on Edy Forey, please visit her website below: https://www.edyforey.com/ www.blueingreenradio.com www.blueingreenradio.com/p/listenlive.html TuneIn: bit.ly/2LBK0BD The Blue-in-Green:PODCAST runs in conjunction with the online radio station, Blue-in-Green:RADIO which celebrates 21st century soul, jazz, funk, Latin & hip-hop music.

Für seine Band, übersetzt «Bissiges Hündchen», schreibt Michael League kurzweilige Arrangements und kreiert eine hochkomplexe Maschinerie. Etwas kopflastig vielleicht – wäre da nicht der allgegenwärtige Groove. Und da gibts noch viel mehr zu entdecken - nebst seiner Erfolgscombo. Mit «Snarky Puppy» trifft Michael League vor 10 Jahren einen Nerv. Diese Gruppe von Musikern aus dem Raum Texas ist international gefeierte Liveband, Darling vieler Polls und multiple Grammygewinnerin. Am liebsten hält sich Michael League im Hintergrund seiner grossen Combo und sorgt von dort aus für den richtigen Groove. «Als Bassist stellt er den Song und nicht sich selbst ins Zentrum, unterstützt durch sein tiefes rhythmisches Wissen» sagt Ursula Wienken. Leagues interaktive und immer musikdienliche Haltung fasziniert die deutsch-polnische Bassistin, die schon als 10jährige von ihrem Bruder eine Snarky Puppy-CD geschenkt bekommen hat und seither sein Schaffen verfolgt. Ganz besonders schätzt sie an Michael League, wie er sich als Bassist, Komponist und Produzent von diversen Musikstilen inspirieren lässt – stets im Bemühen um musikalische Begegnungen auf Augenhöhe. Ein Gespräch über das breite Schaffen dieses 40jährigen Musikers, der seit einigen Jahren in Barcelona lebt und nebst einem Label auch ein eigenes Festival gegründet hat, gibts in der Jazz Collection mit Ursula Wienken.

Cuban-born pianist and composer HAROLD LÓPEZ-NUSSA begins an exciting new chapter of his fascinating career with his Blue Note debut, Timba a la Americana, a vibrant album teeming with joy and pathos that was inspired by the pianist's recent decision to leave his Cuban homeland and begin a new life in France. Produced by Snarky Puppy bandleader Michael League, Timba a la Americana unveils a brand-new sound across ten dynamic original compositions performed by a tight-knit band featuring harmonica virtuoso Grégoire Maret, Luques Curtis on bass, Bárbaro “Machito” Crespo on congas, and Harold's brother Ruy Adrián López-Nussa on drums. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/backstagejazz/message

Snarky Puppy: Transmissions From Deep Ellum

In episode two of Transmissions From Deep Ellum, the band members give us an unprecedented look inside the creation and refinement of the songs that came to make up their new album, the Grammy®-nominated Empire Central. Though the collective has recorded in front of live audiences before, shaking off two years of pandemic lockdown added a new level of intensity to the process. Band members discuss what it felt like to get back into rehearsals and realign as a group in order to execute on the musical direction inspired by bandleader Michael League.Snarky Puppy seamlessly fuses a deep knowledge and respect for musical tradition with sonic and conceptual innovation in a way that is able to reach the most critical- or most carefree- audience. After a decade of relentless touring and recording in all but complete obscurity, the Texas-bred/New York-based quasi-collective suddenly found itself held up by the press and public as one of the major figures in the jazz world. But as the category names for all four of the band's Grammy® awards would indicate (Best R&B Performance in 2014, Best Contemporary Instrumental Album in 2016, 2017, and 2021), Snarky Puppy isn't exactly a jazz band. It's not a fusion band, and it's definitely not a jam band. It's probably best to take Nate Chinen of the New York Times' advice, as stated in an online discussion about the group, to “take them for what they are, rather than judge them for what they're not.”Transmissions From Deep Ellum is produced by Eric Lense and Jamie Margulies of GroundUp Music, and is narrated by Alex Ariff.

Since 2004, Michael League has remained Snarky Puppy's one constant. For every album and every show, the bass player has been there to help shape the amorphous jazz collective. Empire Central is a rare concept album of sorts – a musical homage to Dallas, the city near the University of North Texas, where the band began life. The area is now half a world away from Spain, where League now calls home. He phoned me from Catalonia to discuss the new record, which is also the final recorded appearance by the group's mentor, Berna Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jeff Berlin, who has been called “the greatest bass player in the world”, was a personal friend of Jack's and wanted to record his songs in remembrance of how Jack helped Jeff to find his own musical path.Says Jeff, “Recording the music of Jack Bruce has been the most emotional recording project of my career. Jack was the greatest bass influence I ever had. In the center of his music were these strange and wonderful bass lines weaving in and out of the key, reaching for resolutions and finding them, again, and again. Jack's playing was a living evolving improvisation.Guest performers:Sammy Hagar, Alex Lifeson, Geddy Lee, Gregg Bissonette, Gary Husband, Eric Johnson, Bill Frisell, Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal, Alex Ligertwood, Scott Henderson, Marcus Miller, Ron Carter, Tony Levin, Michael League, Nathan East, Mark King, Bruce Guttridge, Billy Sheehan and Johnny Hiland!Website: https://www.jeffberlinmusicgroup.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lumpyjazz/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/jberlinbasseducation/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JBerlinMusicGroupFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jbplaysjbThanks for tuning in, please be sure to click that subscribe button and give this a thumbs up!!Email: thevibesbroadcast@gmail.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/listen_to_the_vibes_/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thevibesbroadcastnetworkLinktree: https://linktr.ee/the_vibes_broadcastTikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMeuTVRv2/Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheVibesBrdcstTruth: https://truthsocial.com/@KoyoteAnd Now!!!
