Taking it Easy Lyrics:  Irina

What can I do?

Can I count me plus you?
What do you see?
Can you count you plus me?

Does it make any sense?
Tacit romance...

We are taking it easy
Taking it easy...

What can I do?
What if it is me minus you?
What do you see?
Is it you minus me?

Does it make any sense?
Tacit romance...

We are taking it easy
Taking it easy...

"Jazz is really about the human experience. It’s about the ability of human beings to take the worst of circumstances and struggles and turn it into something creative and constructive. That’s something that’s built into the fiber of every human being. And I think that’s why people can respond to it. They feel the freedom in it. And the attributes of jazz are also admirable. It’s about dialogue. It’s about sharing. And teamwork. It’s in the moment, and it's nonjudgmental."
–Herbie Hancock

This is about one of those friends that not only is a great dj, a true music lover, obsessed with photography and politics but always happen to be at a particular place in most of your life-changing sets and shares the same joy, goosebumps and transcends at every beat, bassline, every drop and every mix with you (#nofilter - haha). 

Clovis is one of those people, the type who would sit in a room with me for endless hours listening to a set and sharing that "bass face" of pain....

.....needless to say our music exchange goes beyond dance music. Clovis has been recording some jazz sets lately, ones I listen to all the time. With them and our musical exchange in mind, I asked him if he would record us one of those sets for the mix series and here we have it, the first of this series to step out of electronic sounds and bring us into more organic sounds. 

Thanks Clovis for this amazing set, tracklist and quote by Herbie.
