This Island Earth
Sunday March 4th, 2018 with PeterB
From an original Cool Jazz ground breaker, to New Classical, to Indo-fusions, to Afrobeats!
All over the pan-galactic musical map today. Starting off with a cool-jazz classic, and odd variations. Winding through a new Steve Reich release. To new woman's' vocal raga/fusion sounds. To South America. Huge Afrobeats. Etc...
Fasten your seatbelts.
Please do hit us up on the Interactive Thingy (over there ==>). We'd love to hear from you!!
| Starting off with a brain-teaser, on the classic Dave Brubeck "Take 5". The challenge is ON to see if you can count the many rhythms going on in the 2nd re-mix one here. ;^) And some other "puppy hears a new sound" stuff too. |
