Jazz Mix 5 here, just in time for warm summer nights, with a Latin Jazz / Afro Cuban / Mambo focus. This was extremely fun for me as I knew very little about these genres and had a lot of fun exploring them and compiling over the past few months, though I still feel I've hardly scratched the surface. The stories behind some of the musicians are absolutely legendary, like the Palmieri brothers or the king himself, Tito Puente. This mix takes you over a 20 year time span from 1952-1972, with some classics of the genre and a few lesser known albums. I hope you enjoy!

Yoyaku Instore Session - Serious A

Download enabled. Originally for @cannedgoodsmusic 

Oddly this is the first jazz mix I have ever compiled. More of a curated playlist than a mix, though I did some editing for levels and to make all the gaps between songs just the right length. It's mostly more recent favorite discoveries of mine with a lot of the classics I remember my Dad playing regularly while growing up, and a couple more obscure items that I've come across, like Charlie Mingus playing solo piano to open the mix. Most of this jazz is from the same era, more or less. There were some older and some more contemporary pieces I wanted to include but I found they threw the sound and the vibe off somewhat, since the quality of recordings varies so greatly. There is also a lot more weird and more experimental jazz I adore that I did not include in favor of keeping this more relaxed and smooth. It was so much fun to compile, for almost 2 weeks straight I listened to pretty much exclusively jazz, and assembled around 5 hours of music which I then reduced to this shorter ride. Enjoy

Clovis - Jazz Mix Vol. 1 (Winter 2017)

"If you feel like tapping your feet, tap your feet. If you feel like clapping your hands, clap your hands. And if you feel like taking off your shoes, take off your shoes. We are here to have a ball. So we want you to leave your worldly troubles outside and come in here and swing."
―Art Blakey

It was time for a new one! I listened to a lot of records I had never heard before for this, and also included some favorites of course. The format is similar to the first one, I like doing blocks of 2-3 songs from a particular album or group, and Bill Evans is always great to start with. The time period is roughly the same, late 50s through the 60s, though it ends with a bit more experimental works from Pharoah Sanders from the 70s. Although it's almost an hour longer, there is a bit less variety of artists because lot of the pieces are longer ones, all really great works in my opinion.

Jazz Mix Vol. 4 (Winter 2020)

This august would have been my first visit to Crato for a very special happening, Waking Life

The name itself carries a very deep meaning for me as it is shared with a film that has a very significant importance in my life.

Well, we all know what happened to the summer of 2020.. instead we gathered in an enchanted land behind the screen, called "The Space Between".

Chats at the beach bar and exploring our dreams underneath the stars.

This was my contribution, a trip through consciousness with eyes wide shut, traveling to the party that could have been.

Maximum gratitude for the invitation @Wakinglifeportugal
