Jazz Matters

The mix is an electro selection of underground and other less obscure tracks. Not all are rarities. What was once underground eventually comes to the surface as in the well-known Deep House classic Deja Vu by DJ Larry Heard or other House Classics A Naked Theme by Joey Negro and Lost Illusions by Shazz. Underground is the scene where Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti - Chris & Casey - have been in many parts of their music career which started with Throwing Gristle. Their production Exotica is a catchy dance electro-pop tune. Another great tune is by the late J. Dilla from his experimental EP “Ruff Draft” (warning of explicit lyrics). Return to the Underground mix also features Dilla’s friend and producer Madlib in his experimental electro hip hop Jazz band, Yesterday New Quintet. Music gems such as Trompetas al Anochecer by electro hip-hop band from Barcelona, Barnabasstars or the Hippie Session 2069 by the Venezuelan duet of Masseratti 2 LTS. De Phazz is a nu-jazz and downtempo from Germany whose contribution in this selection Depression Royale adds soul to the mix. Bogdan Irkük a.k.a Bulgari is a Rare Avis artist in the dance music world. His real name Måns Swanberg is a Swedish designer, illustrator and animator who has masterly translated his visual concepts into unique music production. We cannot forget the eponymous track that gives name to the mix. Aybee is the alias of Armon Bazile a recording artist who has forged an eclectic music career from the turn of the millennium as dj, producer and artist in its own genre. Bazile takes various musical sources for his productions and with those he assembles his electro rhythms that transport you to a profound mystical experience on the dance floor.

 Africa is not a country” is a programme dedicated to the diversity of modern African Music. From North to South, from East to West. Surrounded by four seas (Mediterranean, Atlantic, Red and Indian), Africa is a rich natural source of life and biodiversity. The cradle of humankind is also the root of modern popular Music. Call it Blues, Jazz, Rock & Roll, Soul, Reggae Funk, Latin or House. These modern forms of popular music would not have existed without Africa's musical legacy. Mestizo Sounds show is bringing Music back home.

This is the first in a series of Cuban music shows that will introduce some of the classics of Cuban music. Cuba, La Isla Bonita where Madonna sings in her eponymous hit is also a musical paradise and one of the most musical places in the world. The creation of a vast number of music styles produced as a result of the combination of European and African musical patterns is outstanding. Son, Rhumba, Habanera, fillin, Mambo, Cha Cha Cha, guajira, trova, guaracha are just among the styles developed in the pearl of the Antilles.

In the first show, Sabor Añejo will introduce the old music styles before Fidel Castro and the bearded men took over the running of Cuba. In the 1940s the Tim Pan Alley Publishing house in the US considered the immense appeal of Cuban music and were jealous of the perennial best-sellers Cuba produced compared to the average hits they only managed to make, that only lasted for a few months. Peanut Vendor (El Manisero), La Paloma or Guantanamera are some of these perennial compositions.

The only music style included in this first show which was not produced in Cuba is the Latin Jazz groundbreaking piece of Manteca. This jazz hybrid is a composition by the Cuban Conga player Chano Pozo in the Dizzy Gillespie Big Band. Manteca opened a new genre in Jazz form. What was called Cuban Bop, then Cuban Jazz and now Latin Jazz?

Antonio Machin, Chano Pozo, Beni More, Arsenio Rodriguez, Guillermo Portabales, Miguelito Valdes, Cachao, Mongo Santamaria, Bebo Valdes, Celina, Perez Prado, Graciela, La Lupe, Machito & his Afro Cubans, Francisco Aguabella, Cuarteto D’Aida, El Gran Fellove and the Buena Vista Social Club are essential names of Cuban music. All of them are included in Sabor Añejo of the Cuban Music.

This is a particular selection by Mestizo Sounds of music produced in Spain. The scope of the music covers from pop to dance with hip hop, flamenco rumba and rock. Mostly uptempo beat but also a couple of mid-tempo tunes with great lyrics (in Spanish). BLURB: "Spanish Bombs" was a song by the Clash in the essential album “London Calling”. Since then this has been the title adopted by some music compilers to select some of the most remarkable Spanish Music. My selection is based on my formative years as a music fan. Some of the tracks are from the era known in Spain as “La Movida”. This is a period between the late seventies and mid-eighties when the young people free of the political oppression brought by the dictatorship once Franco died in 1975 expressed themselves through music with the creation of hundreds of record Indi labels and bands influenced by the Punk and Post Punk movement in the UK and US. I have included a native style of music such as rumba Flamenca, always part of the most popular Spanish music played on the radio, especially in the summer season, with the classic song of A Chili Pu by Dolores Vargas “La Terremoto” from 1971. There is also a new millenium take on rumba with the track "Vacileo" produced by Macaco, a notable contemporary solo artist, who was a member of the internationally acclaimed band Ojos de Brujo. Extremoduro is one of the greatest bands of Spanish rock music. Their hard rock music influenced by Frank Zappa has always had a very strong lyrical aspect. Pop, Hip hop and Dance music are also included by various artists in most of the cases from this millennium.

The show will look at his music from the days before Inspiral Carpets to these days.

 Due to the damage caused by a mains water pipe bursting in our new studio building – NuDirections FM will be off air for all of June 2022 and a few weeks of July 2022 - due to the damage caused to the building structure and our equipment - we will be back – better, bigger and boulder.

I took the decision to move into bigger premises as NDFMmusic is growing to a global listenership of over 32,000 in 43 countries – sadly our plans to expand will be delayed – but I would like to thank you all personally for the overwhelming support you have given NDFMmusic
