  • Balance Digs Jazz Matters – June 23

     Welcome to my Balance Jazz Matters mix, this mix is a small taster of the Jazz that is bursting from the vibrant UK Jazz scene to the point of exploding.

    I shall try to give you a spread of just some of the exquisite jazz music that is around, it’s the music that has either caught my ears, been told about and I would love to share with you.

    The music I love ranges from Rare Grooves, Jazz, Jazz Fusion, Jazz Dance, NuJazz, Soul, Funk, Balearic and World Music, and past, present and future flavours from far and wide with a little nod to the left side and a little sprinkling of electronica.

    My playlists are always uncompromising, bold and sometimes challenging, often changing in tempo and style to avoid getting stuck into the same groove.

    Bringing together music I think the world needs to hear, and mainstream music channels so often overlook.

  • JAZZ THING MIX JUNE 23

    Mestizo Sounds presents, Jazz Thing Mix, a music selection incorporating a jazz element.

    Acid Jazz and Talkin' Loud were recording labels in the House music era of raves in the late eighties and nineties that took jazz as inspiration for a new form of the club dance scene.

    Schema is a record label from Milan created in 1997 that took the baton of those labels. These labels influenced the emerging jazz club scene of the 90s. Schema produced a sophisticated catalogue of Latin jazz tinge music. Funk, Soul, Hip hop and Electronic music also merge well in this eclectic scene.

    At the end of the last century, Jazz lovers, remind us that this music was not old hat but current and lively, so I have also included prominent Latin percussionists such as Puertorican Jose Mengual 'Buyú', Master Cuban conguero Aguabella and Brazilian Mamao (Ivan Conti), drummer of the great Azymuth. The latter joins with hip hop, producer and multiinstrumentalist Madlib (Otis Jackson Jr) in the track chosen from their mutual album Sujinho. Pharoah Sanders and Dr Lonnie Smith are two undisputed music legends.

    Jazz Thing mix brings the music of these two great innovators that sadly passed away recently with one year between them.

  • Balance Digs Forgotten Treasures

     I’m in the process of digitizing my music collection, and it’s taken ages and ages as I’m copying it in real-time and all my digitized music is stored using wav files, and of course I'm coming across music I’ve not listened to for some time.

    So I decided to do a series of mixes Forgotten Treasures, based upon some of my rediscoveries, there is no planning, no genre, no sequencing to balance the mix, it's just some of my forgotten treasures.


    The music I love ranges from Rare Grooves, Jazz, Jazz Fusion, Jazz Dance, NuJazz, Soul, Funk, Balearic and World Music, and past, present and future flavours from far and wide with a little nod to the left side and a little sprinkling of electronica.

    My playlists are always uncompromising, bold and sometimes challenging, often changing in tempo and style to avoid getting stuck into the same groove

  • Balance Digs Balearic

    This mix leans heavily on music I adore from Latrama, whose music can only be described as global beats with deep Indian music influences and a sprinkling of music from the legendary Jose Padilla.

    This mix is for the end of daylight as the sun is sinking below the horizon and darkness arrives, with the cocktail of music that has either caught my ears, been told about or I would love to share with you.

    The music I love ranges from Rare Grooves, Jazz, Jazz Fusion, Jazz Dance, NuJazz, Soul, Funk Balearic and World Music, and past, present and future flavours from far and wide with a little nod to the left side and a little sprinkling of electronica.

    My playlists are always uncompromising, bold and sometimes challenging, often changing in tempo and style to avoid getting stuck into the same groove.

  • Mestizo Sounds Presents Cuban Music 2

    The New Sounds of the Revolution (1960 - 1989)

    The show continues the series of Cuban music that started with the "Sabor Añejo" show made last year in July 2022.

    This new Cuban programme is about the years of the revolution in the sixties, seventies and eighties. The music includes diverse genres and styles from traditional Son to modern Jazz Funk music but also new styles created in those years in Cuba like Mozambique, Songo or Nueva Trova.

    In addition, Cuban doo Wop with the group Los Zafiro. This band became popular in the sixties in Western countries such as France, where they played on the same bill as the Beatles in Paris. Irakere, Los Vanvan and Orquesta Aragón with the songwriter music of Pablo Milanes and Silvio Rodriguez, the jazzer Gonzalo Rubalcaba and the Sonero Adalberto Alvarez are some of the most remarkable artists included in the selection.

About Jazz Matters

From the publisher's feed

I built Jazz Matters as my home for contemporary jazz, nu-jazz, and world music — and now it’s also home to a small number of guest shows and mixes from people I rate.
