Favoriting Music For a Free World with Dave Sewelson: Playlist from January 27, 2024 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.

Mitchell's part (beneath the sax blowing) sounds composed? But could also just be you gave him voicings and rhythms and counted on his understanding of the composition? Walks the line between sounding like comping and reading.

I made a manual adjustment of my focusrite...but shouldn't have to...odd....

Yes, the channels are more even now. But no worries. It wasn't a big issue before. It's been sounding fantastic from the start.
