MR BOP - EXACTLY UNDER THE SUN 4.0

Full track list and notes: https://www.waxpoetics.com/listen/jazz-45-vol-6-mixtape-the-classics

The sixth installment of trumpeter/arranger/producer/bandleader Todd Simon’s #JazzOn45 series focuses on some classics found within the genre. For the return of Wax Poetics, Todd has put together some of the more well-known gems found on 7-inch vinyl. Thanks to artists such as Kamasi Washington and Sons of Kemet, we have seen a newly found resurgence of this incredibly expressive and beautiful art form worldwide. Whether you are fairly new to digging into Jazz, or well-versed in it, you will enjoy listening to these selections at 45 rpm. Note that certain selections from this include both sides edited together.

Jazz on 45 Vol. 6 Mixtape – The Classics

Trumpeter/arranger/producer/bandleader Todd Simon’s initial Jazz on 45 Mixtape presents some true jazz heavies.

Jazz on 45 Vol. 1 Mixtape – The Beginning

An amazing record recently landed in my post office box, an absolute classic of an album I honestly never thought I’d see in person let alone get a copy of: Winston Mankunku Ngozi’s quartet masterpiece “Yakhal Inkomo” - I insist everyone at least take a listen to this on Spotify or elsewhere. On this episode I've included the title track to start off the set. There is also an excellent interview with South African jazz scholars Percy Mabandu, Kevin Davidson, Nduduzo Makhathini and Salim Washington discussing the importance of this recording, available at: https://www.allaboutjazz.com/yakhal-inkomo-a-south-african-masterpiece-at-fifty-winston-mankunku-ngozi-by-seton-hawkins

Anyway, I decided to partner it on this podcast with a few other horn-heavy selections. Hope you dig!

Tracklist: Mankunku Quartet, Azar Lawrence, Lee Morgan, Sahib Shihab, John Coltrane

We’re happy to present this exclusive guest mix coming from Henry Wu, part of the new wave of London’s electronic producers. I discovered him only a few weeks ago through his release on a mysterious label called 22a Music which pressed only 100 copies of both of their first releases.

We’re huge fans of the organic and slightly abstract approach to electronic music which would be the best way to describe Henry Wu’s productions. For fans of Theo Parrish, Romare, Peven Everett and Mo Kolours (who is actually his label mate’s brother). We also featured Henry Wu’s amazing “Misled” track on our last monthly MIMS Radio Show.

Henry Wu, Jeen Bassa, Al Dobson Jr and Tenderlonious are the 4 featured artists on the two 22a releases so it’s great to see they are represented well on this mix with a few tracks each.

Tracklist

1. Reggie Mamode IV – Disco Cut
2. Jeen Bassa – Disco Cut pt. 2
3. Henry Wu – Bush Funk
4. Tenderlonious – Things That I
5. Henry Wu – Altilude
6. DOC Mastermind – Avenue d-italie 2.am
7. Henry Wu – Mislead (Talk About It)
8. Reggie Mamode IV – Talking About
9. Tenderlonious – Track 9
10. Tenderlonious – Little D
11. Al Dobson Jr – Nankoo on Keys
12. Henry Wu – Back to Broken pt 7
13. Al Dobson Jr – Mr Mellow/ Much Love

MIMS Guest Mix: HENRY WU (22a Music, London)

In STEALTH by Sonallah Ibrahim, the narrator, a boy living in Cairo sneaks around the city spying on its citzens. By taking in its sights, sounds, and smells, the boy creates a portraint of 1950s Cairo. In a previous post, we explored those sights with an animation by Nathaniel Whitcomb who created a motion collage from the mid-century Cairo photographs of Don Church. Now, we present to you a mix of popular 1950s Egytian music compiled by Brian Shimkovitz of Awesome Tapes From Africa. 

1. Samia Gamal “Ay Ya Zein” [Oh Beautiful] (from the film Valley of the Kings) 
2. Um Kalthoum “Howa Sahih El-Hawa Ghallab” [Is It True That Love Is Irresistible?]
3. Laila Murad “Men Al Qalb Lel-Qalb Rasool” [Heart to Heart] (from the film Heart to Heart)
4. Fareed al-Atrash “Hebeena Hebeena” [Love Us, Love Us] (from the film Nagham Fi Hayati)
5. Mohamed Abdel Wahab “El Sudan”
6. Laila Mourad “Abgad Hawaz”
7. Mohamed Abdel Wahab “Ahebo Mahma Ashof Meno”
8. Farid Shawqi & Yehia Chahine with dancer Naemat Mokhtar [title unknown] (from the film The Black Knight)
9. Um Kalthoum “Ya Hobena Al Kabir” [Oh Great Love] 
10. Mohamed Fawzi “Ta'ab el-Hawa Albi” [Oh the Sweetness of Love] (from the film Banat Hawaa) 
11.  Laila Murad “Aahd El Hawa” (from the film Flirtation of Girls)

Harvest Time

This dedication mix is long overdue. In 1996, my friend Dave played me "Journey to Satchidanada" and I was blown away. A year or two later, I recovered a weathered copy of the record from a book and record store on East 7th Street in Manhattan while digging around with the same friend and it became a prized possession. Over the coming years I educated myself on more of her music, digging up copies here and there, and feel a bit lucky to have grabbed most of her records before the "craze" hit sometime in the late 2000s. It's truly unique and beautiful music - I admit that I can't totally stomach some of the more free-leaning cuts she recorded, in the same way I can't get into the late work of her also-legendary husband, but when I put these albums on the turntable it truly is a bit of an "inter-dimensional" experience, like the cover art of her "World Galaxy" album.

Belated happy birthday to Alice Coltrane! Besides the first track, which is a clip from a seminal session she did with Marian McPartland for NPR's "Piano Jazz" series, these are all from my personal copies of her albums.

Kidus aka dj Mitmitta (@Mitmitta) is one of the main record collectors based in Ethiopia. He runs the Mitmitta Muzika record label where he re-released, in collab with Domino Sound from New Orleans, a compilation of traditional wedding songs by Getatchew Degefu & friends. Another release is planned for 2016, so check it. Mitmitta is that spicy powder very muched used in Ethiopian cuisine. After having released numerous successful mixtapes, mostly under K7, Kidus wanted to release something live. He invited me in his house for an afternoon session in his house in Addis. This mix includes some of his latest discoveries including Ethiopian and Eritrean songs, mostly slow grooves, melodic and musical. If you’re not into the Ethiopian music digging scene, you might not realize it, but this mix is exactly in the actual vibe of the moment, people are digging more and more this kind of sounds right now. Here are all the records used in this mix.
