In a world with lots of content noise, play to the silences. Let your messaging be simple and clear, and even short. In this episode, we're learning from the musician who let there be simplicity and space. Who played his trumpet in a sparse style so that each note was beautiful and carefully chosen. That's Miles Davis.And with our special guest, Ben Lempert, Director of Content & Web at Heap, we're talking about creating simple messaging, capturing different voices, leaving room for spontaneity, and the importance of feeling in your marketing.About our guest, Ben LempertBen Lempert is Director of Content & Web at Heap.

He has over 10 years of experience in content strategy, brand, comms, creative, editing, and leadership.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Kind of Blue:Create simple messaging. Distill your message into plain but pointed language directed at your particular audience. Ben says, “What people respond to in Kind of Blue, and I think what people often respond to best in good content, is a simple, clear, open, direct message. I think a lot of companies get very complex in talking about the nuances of their solution and the technical advantages their product offers. I think it's worth it in the content world for most companies to think about what your fundamental message is, whether that's one sentence or one paragraph or four words. What's the thing that people will respond to that explains what you do and why it matters in a unique way? It's very hard to get to. I don't think many companies do it well. It's very easy to come up with something that's too abstract to be meaningful.”Capture different voices. Feature quotes from both your customers and colleagues in your content. Gather info and input from all of them and work it into your content. You don't have to operate all alone on a marketing island. Ben says, “Jazz, like content, is a team activity. I think one of the great things about Kind of Blue is that there's room for lots of individual voices. When we think about representing our company through our content, it's worth recognizing that there are plenty of voices across the company. And they all have different ways of expressing what's important. So it's okay to vary the voice and story you're telling, as long as you have a fundamental story that is simple and clear. What's on top of it involves orchestrating these different voices in a way that hits people in different ways and allows for nuance and complexity to be added to your story.”Leave room for spontaneity. Yes, get your work done. But then leave a little time to experiment and play. Ben says, “We are all extraordinarily busy. But sometimes the best marketing comes from carving out time for free form group thinking. Brainstorming, coming up with ideas that are new and off the wall, having that be a prompt.”Mood and feeling matter. Instead of getting into the nitty gritty technical details, focus on how you make the customer feel. Ben says, “Kind of Blue has that impact on you because of the way it sounds. You're not listening to every single note and you're not listening to Coltrane saying, ‘Oh, he played a flat 13 there. Whoa, that's wild!' It impacted you on a deeper, more emotional level. And we often forget that as content writers, that our audience are not robotic automatons. They're people. And we want to hit their emotions. That's where you reach people.” So ask yourself, “How do I want to make my audience feel?”Quotes*”[Kind of Blue] is one of the very few jazz records that most people who are not jazz fans own and listen to actively. And I think there are lots of reasons for that. And I think that gives us a pretty interesting lens for thinking about how content works, given that lots of content is directed towards people who may not be aware of the intricacies of your technical solutions, but still want to be compelled by what you have to say and want to be interested in it.” - Ben Lempert*”Miles was famous for having a very sparse style, very much interested in playing space. And for him, he was very actively thinking about how to play the silence and the space between notes as much as he was playing the actual notes. So he was super minimalist, would play one or two notes, but they would be absolutely beautiful and absolutely brilliant and took a sort of courage to play those one or two notes that very few musicians have. It's much easier to play a lot of notes and hope you get something right. It's much harder to have that one pithy statement and let it hang there.” - Ben Lempert*”Always strive to create a simple, communicable foundation that ideally everyone in the company can embody. And when the audience receives it, they understand right away. And then you build complexity on top of that.” - Ben LempertTime Stamps[0:55] Meet Ben Lempert, Director of Content & Web at Heap[4:37] Ben Lempert's Journey from Jazz Musician to Director of Content[8:47] The Making of Kind of Blue: A Revolutionary Jazz Album[10:20] Miles Davis' Vision and the Birth of Modal Jazz[23:59] Kind of Blue's Legacy and Impact on Jazz and Beyond[28:24] Exploring the Creative Process and Expectations[29:51] The Power of Minimalism in Music and Marketing[33:44] Improvisation: Jazz Lessons for Conversational and Creative Skills[36:12] Marketing Wisdom from Jazz: Simplicity, Emotion, and Spontaneity[48:38] Heap's Content Strategy: Blending Business Goals with Creative Storytelling[55:12] Embracing Experimentation and Spontaneity in Content CreationLinksListen to Kind of BlueConnect with Ben on LinkedInLearn more about HeapAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Miles Davis is one of, if not, THE greatest Jazz musician of all time. From the Birth of the Cool, to Kind of Blue, to Bitches Brew, the one thing that remained constant in his career was innovation.

Joe and Paul review their 1st Jazz album of the series. But what kind of Jazz? Big Band & Swing Music, Bebop, Gypsy Jazz, Hard Bop, Modal Jazz or Latin Jazz? How about the style of Hollywood actress Molly Ringwald. How will they Rate That Album?
After Miles Davis’ Kind of Blue took the jazz world by storm, jazz musicians and fans expressed much excitement about what has been termed ‘modal jazz’. This is a sub-genre that uses long passages of unchanging harmony based on different scales rather than a series of chords. In this podcast I talk about the history…Continue reading Episode 169: Modal Jazz

In the late 50s, Miles Davis was tired of what he thought was repetitive jazz and he decided to adopt a much more complex form called Modal Jazz. And to the amazement of just about everyone in the music world, instead of putting listeners off, the complex music actually sold like hot cakes. Indeed, his album, Kind of Blue, became one of the highest selling jazz albums of all time!

Michial Farmer talks with David Grubbs and Nathan Gilmour about the Miles Davis jazz album "Kind of Blue."
1959 was arguably the most creative year in all of jazz history. Bird had already passed away, and this year would see the passings of Lester Young and Billie Holiday. Musically speaking, when we read jazz history texts or see the labels among the many diverse styles of jazz (i.e "Free Jazz," "Modal Jazz," "Third Stream," etc...), we tend to separate these different styles into alternate universes. In fact, many of the contributions we now consider to be jazz "classics" all happened around the same time. To fully understand the realm of jazz today, or all the different possibilities that could occur tomorrow, we must understand that there wasn't a defining time in which Miles Davis woke up and said..."I'm going to make the most influential jazz album of all time [ Kind of Blue ] today." The same goes for Ornette Coleman, or Dave Brubeck, etc...In this spirit, we now explore the major jazz albums and contributions of 1959—the year that changed jazz.
The forecast for this cast is . . . well, we're doing a show about four alto sax players named Sonny. Make your own meteorological joke. Sonny Stitt – REARIN’ BACK/ TRIBUTE TO ELLINGTON; Sonny Fortune – SERENGETI MINSTREL; Sonny Criss – SONNY’S DREAM; Sonny Simmons – BURNING SPIRITS.
In this podcast, musicians Herbie Hancock, David Amram and Jimmy Cobb address the music theory behind Kind of Blue, and how the feeling of the musicians was equally as important as the compositions themselves in its creation. Considered “Modal Jazz” as it is written from a few basic notes that form the [...]
(April 18, 2009) Loren Schoenberg, director, National Jazz museum in Harlem, gives a mini tutorial on modal jazz and the way that Miles Davis changed jazz forever.
It's been over half a year since our last show! That is nothing short of a tragedy. We intend to compensate for our negligence with tonnes and tonnes of good music.
After eight years, Waxing Deep's presence on campus-community radio comes to a close. The show will continue largely unchanged as a podcast, but we thought we should use this last CHSR show to celebrate all the classic Waxing Deep cuts that defined us over the years.
DJ Ferrari mixes South American psych and funk
Rich Haupt of Rockadelic Records selects nearly 90 minutes of psych heat
Two hours of the classic Waxing Deep mix-up!
This week we make up for two pre-emptions by playing as much music as we can fit into two hours and still meet our CRTC obligations
This week we explore some pre-revolutionary Cuban sounds, introduce a very rare and extremely choice Cuban version of "Vehicle"--destined for vol. 2 of "Si, Para Usted"--and enjoy Latin selections from Joe Tallarico.
Waxing Deep returns for 2008 with the regular mix-up
Tom Wieland shares some selections and a little Tribe jazz.
Adrian Leach generously provides another Happy Jazz session that we follow with a thirty minute cosmic excursion from the Unobstructed Universe.
Reynaldo shares an hour of bugalu and we showcase the infamous Matthew Larkin Cassell LP. The regular mix-up follows. Not to be missed.
Nothing more than as much good music as we can fit into two hours (including three tracks from the Dancer's Inferno LP
Japan’s Black Vinyl Junky shares a selection of his favourite “rare-grooves”—16 extremely rare, storied, and obscure tracks. It’s a master class in Japanese funk collecting and a treat for people interested in finally hearing the likes of Mike Taylor, Marvin Whoremonger, and the Sidewinders. We follow Black Vinyl Junky with some jazz, disco, bossa, and mpb, which is to say the regular Waxing Deep mix-up.
This week it's further explorations of recorded Canadiana, a jaw-dropping new Cuban funk discovery, some classics, and the regular Waxing Deep mix-up.
Paul Goncalves of Superfly Records shares “Nasara”, a mix of African, Central American, and Caribbean music. Check the track listing for more details. We follow with some quirky singles from Canada and abroad, including an infectious white label version of “Down by the River” by The Bells.
A four month hiatus means an embarrassing backlog of music to share! We start with selections from our favourite recent compilations, including offerings from the Numero Group, VampiSoul, and Votary. A tribute to the late Doug Riley follows and then jazz, some obligatory Cuban cuts, and the regular Waxing Deep mix-up. Enjoy!
It's classic Waxing Deep: two tracks of previously unreleased Webster Lewis (courtesy of the good people at Plastic Strip), fun with obscure Canadian singles, some excellent Israeli jazz by The Platina, and much more.
The infamous Reynaldo offers a glimpe into his Latin collection with an exclusive mix for Waxing Deep. With the remaining time we share a noteworthy cut from Ronnie April, a funky track from the storied Klute OST, and some bugalu.
DJ Bongohead aka Pablo Yglesias shares his "Las 4 Culturas" mix: selections of Latin funk, soul, bugalu, and psych. Heavy!
It's another two hours of classic Waxing Deep! Superb, sometimes overlooked music from the world over with a mini-feature on the productions of Ben McPeek.
Adrian Leach provides another Happy Jazz session, which we follow with a quirky mix-up of bossa, psych, funk, and jazz.
This week we bring a superb exclusive mix from DJ Yosaku filled with monster jazz and funk selections. We also commit to more timely updates to the podcast!
This week we meander through obscure Canadian prog, Italian jazz waltzes, Romanian scat vocals, island funk, a little Sussex fun, some disco, and a great deal more.
Paulo of superflyrecords.com brings a mix of funky obscurities during hour one. We follow as best we can with a selection Brazilian records that have been on the top of our ‘to play’ stack for much too long.
We celebrate the release of "Si, Para Usted", our compilation of Cuban Funk on Waxing Deep Records, with some heavy tracks from the album. Pysch, garage, jazz, and Brazilian music follow in classic Waxing Deep fashion.
Waxing Deep eases into 2007 with a mix from the talented DJ Catalist and our first ever, much anticipated playlist!
Last week we had so much fun keeping the entire show to ourselves that we decided to postpone General Eclectic's guest mix and do it again! And so we happily, if somewhat selfishly, present two eclectic hours of classic Waxing Deep.
As the pile of records we have yet to air towered above us, it seemed like a good time for a classic Waxing Deep. We shelved the guest mix for another week and settled down in the studio for two hours of good music. The selection is as eclectic as you’ve come to expect; we slide between jazz, funk, Brazilian, and fusion and had a blast doing it.
San Francisco’s DJ Ferrari, a Silicone Valley executive by day and über-collector by night, provides an outstanding Afro-Brazilian mix for the first hour and a half of the show. Even jaded Brazilian collectors will appreciate the intelligence and deftness of Ferrari’s mixing. Hour two--what there is of it--features eastern jazz, some funk, the obligatory Cuban track, and another brilliant cut from Augusto Martelli’s “Black Sounds From White People”.
Adrian Leach brings the first Happy Jazz session of the season and, as you would expect, it’s superb. Augusto Martelli, Rimona Francis, the Free Design, and a little pachanga keep things moving during hour two.
This week it’s our great pleasure to share the a recent set from Toronto’s Foot Prints Collective—Jason Palma, General Eclectic, and DJ Stu. Foot Prints is one of the world’s few club nights where a crowd enthusiastically dances to the sort of music we play on Waxing Deep. With this set, the Collective digs deep to provide a taste of the scene they’ve lovingly built in Toronto. Unfortunately, a misbehaving CD recorder cuts the show’s second hour and introduces some frustrating distortion. Bare with us; we’ll have the bug fixed for the next show.
Edition Two of the Soulpusher African sessions! We received a hugely enthusiastic response to the first part and the tracks Soulpusher has selected for this week are just as good.
DJ Soulpusher is currently living in Freetown, Sierra Leone, a city he uses as the starting point for regular West African digging trips. On this edition of Waxing Deep, Soulpusher shares some of his favourite recent finds in the first of a two part series. The regular Waxing Deep mix-up follows, including a standout rendition of the “The Best Has Yet To Come”.
The mysterious Senior Vishal generously shares his Trouble for Travel mix of tropical funk. Vishal is a frequent guest at Toronto’s infamous Turning Point party and recently travelled throughout Africa and South America on a digging mission. His selections are heavy. We follow with lots of great jazz. This is a great edition!
This edition of Waxing Deep sees our regular mix-up happily interrupted by a brief mix from the infamous Beatdawg. Direct from his secretive Toronto studio, Beatdawg shares Japanese modern soul, library funk, and enough breaks and beats to make even the jaded producers salivate. A little digital distortion towards the show’s end courtesy of CHSR’s shoddy CD recorder is no match for the quality of this edition’s selections.
Tom Noble of Lotusland Records joins Waxing Deep to discuss his label’s new releases. Tom also shares a heavy hour-long selection of sweet soul, modern soul, and funk—the perfect sound for a sunny fall afternoon. We follow Tom’s mix with the regular Waxing Deep mix-up, including a reissue from the new French label Sausage Records.
Waxing Deep returns after a four month hiatus. We share tonnes of incredible new records and announce the first release on our new record label, Waxing Deep records.
We celebrate the last in-studio Waxing Deep for several months with another instalment of Adrian Leach's Happy Jazz sessions. Put simply, it's brilliant. The second hour is filled with Canadian obscurities and dancefloor sounds.
