Quiet Brilliance Lost Sessions #11
The fourth of nine lost sessions.
Between July and December 2019 I delivered 22 shows to Jazzuary FM, only 13 of which got to the archive. Thus, I have dug through the hard drives in order to retrieve the 9 lost sessions.
This was the #11th Quiet Brilliance show to “air”, the third one that Jazzuary didn’t make available after “airing”, and my fourth post in this series…
“Weekly adventures in quietly and brilliantly grooving ark-ival jazz,
soul and related sounds and spirits, spanning the planet and recorded
history – classics and future classics, dug-for treasures, materials
variously recombined and reworked. The quiet (and sometimes not-so
quiet), and the brilliant, so-labelled in reference to Ken Quashie’s and
Kodwo Eshun’s respective guidebooks for such a sonic journey. The
luminaries inevitably feature, meaning names and sounds like Coltrane,
Herbie, Stevie, Minnie, Dilla, Dego, and plenty of less-commonly
mentioned but just as significant characters, a healthy dose of latin,
and African sounds, broken beat for sure, smatterings of gospel, folk,
Indian classical, no doubt occasional hip-hop, drum & bass, and new
electronic mutations thereof, all wrung through the machinery of
electronic music and performed afresh as befitting a present era
producing-performing-DJ augmented by the tools of the times.”
