Favoriting Music For a Free World with Dave Sewelson: Playlist from September 5, 2020 Favoriting

Dave Sewelson's avatar View Dave Sewelson's profile Favoriting

Charles Mingus said jazz was a word invented to separate musicians from their money. Music for a Free World brings us together, drawing listeners to the healing power of smooth free jazz. Each week, surprise guests bring their own sides to spin and their instruments of choice to spontaneously jam.

This should be a weekly show, great playlist. YK did influence the movement. NYC/brooklyn/queens artists continue to create music in this genre: listen to IndofunkSatish, SnehasishMozumder, Mission:on Mars, and BrooklynRagaMassive !✔️

Nitin Sawhney has done some music for dance. Great with Akram Khan for Kaash, not so great for Vertical Road, and a huge disappointment with Honji Wang and Sebastien Ramirez. Not sure how much I should praise or blame him in each case though

@Dave If it appears OK to you, then it's OK!

@indofunk: These ADF shows were in 2003-2005 maybe. I really loved the dhol solo parts, though now I guess it was gimmicky. Getting old sucks this way. They had Adrian Sherwood opening a couple of times
Avatar 3:11pm
indofunk:

If you want to hear some non-gimmicky dhol, listen to Red Baraat with my boy Sunny Jain!!

Talvin Singh, wow. Takes me even further back. I first saw him something like 20 years ago, he did a classical tabla duo open before switching to his more electronic stuff

Yes to Dave, Sem and Fred. This should be a weekly show, there's new-music like this too out there! @Snehasish @BklynRagaMassive @MissionOnMars @IndofunkSatish

I agree Liftoff! There’s a deep well of this beautiful music that should be drawn from on a weekly show.

I feel bad about calling the ADF dhol solo "gimmicky". The guy was jumping around and getting everybody fired up. It was appropriate to a show like that
