Oftentimes we find ourselves moved to provide a soundtrack for our present moment, and on this night at Gospël in New York City, I felt particularly moved to soundtrack the exceptionally elegant room where I was playing.  

This is just the start of an all night set, one that shifted gears into another realm later on.  But the moment expressed here was one of sophisticated invitation as people started their night in a truly gorgeous space. 

This is 4-deck DJ set, which allows for significantly more creative explorations of sound than a typical 2-deck DJ set. I also had my concert flute and a few Native American style flutes on hand which allowed me to add my own melodic ideas to the mix, and elevate the live moment.  My ukulele also makes a short appearance, although I did not play it much during this set due to unforeseen technical issues with the instrument.  

Everything was recorded live with no alterations to the content in post-processing.  The set continues on for another 2.5 hours after this mix finishes, perhaps I'll post the rest at another point.  But I feel as if this is a journey of itself as the room evolved from a place of lounging and socializing to a wild party over the course of this excerpt.

Thank you for listening,
~Jeff
