The Godfather, AJ and NYC strip clubs, Ago's accident on the Bada Bing! March Sadness and RIP George Foreman

Mario Bauza считается изобретателем латиноамериканского джаза в 40-х годах в Нью-Йорке. Но вскоре мейнстримовые джазовые музыканты стали смешивать два стиля — в то время афро-кубинский, в частности, с джазом. Dizzy Gillespie и Chano Pozo с хитом «Manteca» ввели латиноамериканский джаз в стандартный репертуар. А в 50-х годах латиноамериканский джаз взорвался, Tito Puente стал одной из его величайших звезд. Чуть позже Stan Getz получит признание за то, что присоединил бразильскую музыку к латиноамериканскому джазу. Когда я приехал в Сан-Франциско, там была яркая латиноамериканская джазовая сцена — John Santos, Roy Obiedo, Omar Sosa, Wayne Wallace, Dr. Loco и еще дюжина групп играли по всему городу. Я научился играть на фортепиано монтуну (кубинская древняя музыка) у великого Josh Jones, а также научился играть румбу в ночных клубах. Пианист George Shearing сделал 5 записей латинского джаза между 1957 -61 годами, 4 из них для Capitol Records и одну для MGM, все с вибрафоном в качестве ведущего инструмента. Я всегда любил эти альбомы Ширинга и искал возможность создать ​​группу с вибрафоном. Спустя 20 лет после отъезда из Сан-Франциско и 3 года назад я стал штатным пианистом и музыкальным руководителем частного ресторана в роскошных высотных резиденциях Park 432. В своих попытках программировать разные виды музыки и при поддержке генерального директора Will Simons я создал эту группу, которая получила большой отклик. После множества концертов в 432 мы начали выступать по городу, получив еще больше откликов. И снова Denny Abrams понравилась идея, он включился в процесс и сделал запись. Я безмерно ему благодарен за это. Пьеса Шерига есть только на одном треке альбома. Но, проведя небольшое исследование, я выяснил, что отклик на участников его альбомов, есть на всх композициях, и я хотел бы перечислить их здесь: Armando Peraza, Toots Thielman, Emil Richards, Cal Tjader, Warren Chiasson, Al McKibbon, Percy Brice, Carl Pruitt, Roy Haynes, Bill Clark, Joe Roland, Denzil Best, Marcus Foster, Calino Rolon, Candido Camero и Dick Garcia.

Born and raised in Georgia, Marlon Patton is a New York-based drummer and music producer/engineer. Hailing from a long line of drummers dating back to his grandfather, Phil Patton who played in the Chicago big band circuit, Marlon keeps his schedule interesting and packed full of all types of music. He is the first call for so many musicians not just because of his impeccable time, but because of the incredible musicality of what he delivers. He plays within a huge dynamic range, making him the perfect match for quiet piano jazz performances to hard- hitting rock gigs. He can play with everything from precision to reckless abandon and make it truly his own. He currently is a member of Kenosha Kid, Weisshund, Nelson Patton, Lonnie Holley, The Trey Wright Trio and The Mace Hibbard Quintet. He has toured, performed and/or recorded with Liv Warfield, The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, Jim White, Larkin Poe, Lonnie Holley, Jeff Coffin, Shahzad Ismaily, Col. Bruce Hampton, John Patitucci, Randy Brecker, Rufus Reid, Marcus Printup, and Wycliffe Gordon. He has recorded for labels such as Sony, Universal, Jagjaguwar, RH Music, Yep Roc, Ropeadope plus many more independent releases. His drumming has been in soundtracks on Adult Swim, ABC, and HBO.  In the studio, Marlon has carved a name for himself recording, mixing, and producing. Some recent projects he's worked on are Lonnie Holley's MITH, Liv Warfield's Live at Cafe Wha, Jim White's Where It Hits You, Leah Calvert's Satellite, Daniel Clay's 10,000 Things, Kenosha Kid's Fahrenheit 451, ILL's Gotten Gains, and Blair Dunlop/Larkin Poe's Killing Time.  In this episode, Marlon talks about: Being willing to abandon "correct" technique in favor of a sound, feel, or idea How New York has changed his musical priorities and identity What true collaboration really means Improvising vs. "composing in the moment" Moving away from Atlanta with the goal of expanding, personally and musically Tapping into old relationships in a new place Sharing studio space with Jordan Rose and mixing Liv Warfield's latest record

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.

My guest today is Ben Rubin a producer, mixer, bassist, and composer in Brooklyn NY. Whether he's melding hip-hop and jazz with legends like Masta Ace and Donny McCaslin, playing upright bass at the Newport Jazz Festival with Dred Scott Trio, remixing Karsh Kale or WuTang's Killah Priest, rockin' on electric bass with Marshall Crenshaw, or producing Peter Bernstein solo jazz guitar, Grammy-nominated producer/(re)mixer/bassist/composer Ben Rubin (aka Benny Cha Cha) is renowned for making records that are pure or genre-bending or both. Picked seven times as a “Rising Star Producer” in DownBeat Magazine's International Critics' Poll, Rubin has well over 100 album credits to his name. Lately, he has been working with a diversity of artists including Queen Esther, Erik Deutsch & Theo Bleckmann, Steve Conte (New York Dolls), Stripmall Ballads, Rachel Eckroth (St Vincent), Lower Power, Caleb Wheeler Curtis, Drifter feat. Lucy Woodward, Buzzed Armstrong, and Jon Irabagon, as well as labels like Ropeadope, Sunnyside and Imani. Most recently, Rubin's attention has focused on Analog Players Society at the Bridge Studio in Brooklyn with APS founder Amon Drum creating cut-up hip-hop instrumental records and jazz albums released on Ropeadope and described by Downbeat Magazine as “truly compelling.” featuring legendary Juice Crew MC Masta Ace described as “in the direct lineage of classics like A Tribe Called Quest's Low-End Theory, and Guru's Jazzmatazz.” Bens production and mixing credits include Walking Distance feat. Jason Moran, Grammy nominated composer/pianist Emilio Solla, and many recordings for Smalls Live Records releasing more than 30 records with jazz greats including Larry Goldings, Louis Hayes, Tom Harrell, Johnny O'Neal, Chris Potter, Tim Ries, Roy Hargrove, Mulgrew Miller, Seamus Blake, and Cyrille Aimeé to name just a few. As a bassist, Ben has toured and recorded both upright and electric bass with a diversity of artists, including Dred Scott Trio, Patti Smith, James Maddock, Courtney Love, Mary J. Blige, Moby, Bill Frisell, and his own acclaimed, genre-bending band Mudville which I believe my brother Nate played in at one point. Ben has also composed scores for features and short films, including director Nelson Kim's feature film debut, Someone Else, which premiered at the Miami International Film Festival in 2015.

"Snarky Puppy" are an American instrumental ensemble led by bassist Michael League.The group's formation can be traced back to 2004, after Micheal League's second year at the University of North Texas. He says that he was so bad as a musician he wasn't able to play with any school ensembles, so creating "Snarky Puppy" was his way of getting to play live.Straight out of the gate the group consisted of 10 members. Since those early days they have gone on to release 14 albums, toured the world, and collaborated with an ever evolving carousel of live musicians as well as with solo artists and orchestras. As usual, there is much more to know, so tune in to Jay and Jesse as they discuss this unique collective on Roots to Grooves.To listen to the full episode, including the featured music, visit... signlradio.com"Roots to Grooves" is a production of SIGNL.https://www.signlradio.comhttps://www.instagram.com/signlradiohttps://www.twitter.com/signlradiohttps://www.facebook.com/signlradiohttps://www.mixcloud.com/signlhttps://open.spotify.com/user/96mhz6qfjoztxbl2dpm0uj903?si=aAZpsoEnRAKdx85kr1QWhg

As such, this conversation takes a number of twists and turns, historical and philosophical alike. In addition to mining the embryonic inclinations and aspirations of lespecial, and rinsing the processes and concepts behind the masterful new album, Jonny G rabbit holes include the timeless classical opus “Hall of the Mountain King”, Flying Lotus, Aphex Twin, Lettuce/Break Science, White Zombie, Jackson Whalen, plus assorted homies, ancient or otherwise.   Vibe Junkie JAMS “Tonberry” - lespecial  (off latest LP ‘Ancient Homies) “Accordian” > “Meat Grinder” MF DOOM/Madlib -  Madvillainy    BRAND NEW PATREON! https://www.patreon.com/upfullife   LARGE UP to our sponsors Path to Panacea: LUMINOSITEA, and Herb An' Music: The Healing of the Nations EMAIL the SHOW!

Ropeadope is a collaborative community, a brand, a moving force with a life of its own that is larger than life. Founded at the close of the last century, Ropeadope has taken the path less traveled, always following the music where it wants to go. From historically significant records with celebrity names to completely unknown artists, Ropeadope has crossed boundaries and defied music business logic to create a truly unique company that continues to release great music. Ropeadope is a story of inclusion. We view the world as a place of one, where music is a unifying force connecting all of us. We accept that musicians know their art better than businessmen do. We know that this concept, this thing called Ropeadope, is larger than any of us. And so we follow wherever Ropeadope may lead. -------------------For more information on Ropeadope, visit:Ropeadope.comfacebook:  @ropeadope99IG: @ropeadopeTW: @ropeadopeRopeadope on BandcampYouTube: 21Soul-------------------Music courtesy of Ropeadope:"I Can't Breathe" (feat.

Bright Dog Red is perhaps the most unique band to grace the halls of Ropeadope, and that's quite an accomplishment. Founded by drummer and composer Joe Pignato, BDR is comprised of a rotating cast of players. Their new album, How's by You? , features founding members Cody Davies (electronics) and Anthony Berman (bass), as well as long standing members Mike LaBombard (tenor sax) and MC Cully (rhyming and freestyling). The collective has its genesis in a series of freewheeling jam sessions led by Pignato, a professor at the State University of New York, Oneonta. Bright Dog Red hits the stage without charts or set list - they simply start playing and improvise, taking cues from each other and from the audience and room. It's adventurous, and due to the skill and rapport of the players, surprisingly cohesive. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

BLUKE is BluRum13, known to us as a member of the seminal band Bullfrog, and Luke Vibert, known to the world as an elusive performer and master sampler. The duo met in late 90's at a live gig as NinjaTune labelmates. Their first recording together, Smell The Urgency, emerged from the shelves in recent years, and pushed them to record again. Their followup, Sense The Urgency, was released this year on Ropeadope. It is rare that Luke Vibert grants an interview, so we were honored to get some casual time to discuss their mission to save that old school Hip-Hop vibe. "Sense The Urgency" available at https://bluke.bandcamp.com/album/sense-the-urgency Produced by Nick Perri & Steve Eshewsky. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Today on the show - Mr Nathan Paul. A multi-instrumentalist from Cleveland, Nathan's band The Admirables has been cooking this year, touring with Moon Hooch and Dwele and opening for artists like Cory Henry & Kamasi Washington. Nathan does not consider himself a jazz musician, though improvisation and groove are heavy elements of his sound. The singles Flute-a-Loo and Catch Me If You Can were released through Ropeadope this year as we pave the road for more to come from this continually creative mind. Nathan speaks frankly about his upbringing, and leads us through his songwriting process.

This week, Louis catches up with the great Doobie Powell, who came to Ropeadope through Sput Searight's RSVP records. Doobie's father was a musician who founded the band Wood, Brass, & Steel, featuring the young Doug Wimbish. This is the band that eventually became the Sugar Hill Gang, so you can see right away that Doobie's background in the Church was accentuated with secular experience. Doobie's new album, Finding Myself Again, came out in Spring of 2019, and his blend of all those musical experiences makes for a groundbreaking ride.
