Gilles Peterson's Balkan Jazz Mix

Tête de pont d’un jazz français débridé, en quête d’un groove moderne aux ramifications riches, le Florian Pellissier Quintet agite depuis ses débuts en 2002 une musique avec des envies d’ailleurs évidentes ; évoquées sur les précédentes sorties mais aujourd’hui clairement mis en avant sur ce quatrième album, Bijou Voyou Caillou.

Ses  précédent album « biches bleues »  et le « cap de Bonne esperance » a eu 4 étoiles dans jazzmag, choc Jazznews, playlist TSF et Jazz radio, « disque de la semaine » dans jazz à fip, playlist sur Radio Nova et selection dans leur coffret de fin d’année.

Ce nouvel album devrait asseoir un peu plus le nom de Pellissier sur la scène jazz française mais aussi international. Ce musicien hyperactif est toute l’année sur scène et notamment derrière de nombreux projets, que ce soit le live band de GUTS, celui d’Anthony Joseph, Cotonete, Akalé wubé,  Setanta, Camarao Orchestra, Luzmila Carpio… mais c’est avec son quintet qu’il s’epanouit pleinement.

Day 3 - Proverbs Explained | Part 5 (Chapters 21-25)

Here's a little mix I did today from some fine music that was lying around.
I hope you enjoy these arabic tendencies with a touch of modalism etceteraaaaa..

Here's the game..
You must name the tracks and artists and the first one to get it right will receive a proper bundle of vinyl from Brownswood records and from the basement - some old and new in there....but I don't think you'll get it so I might as well throw in a copy of Donald Byrd's Kofi if I can find my second one!

Good luck and good digging!
