Musical Energy: A Transformational Journey via Digital Violin. A special collection of magical performance moments captured during Dixon's recent North American tours.

I am so excited to share this music with you! It has now been 2 years since I left the corporate world to followup this dream full-time, and likewise 2 years since my last CD. So much has changed - it's a completely new world, and I feel like the luckiest person alive! I am so grateful to you all for listening and spreading the word, and to the folks that create the spaces where I can share what I do live.

Special thanks to my Love, Leslie "Light Bearer" Blackburn - you are my goddess, my sweetie. I am honored to be your Jade Dragon.

The Demon Diaries

Clap Your Hands

2014 has been filled with many ups and downs. A lot of different events in the past year really made me think twice about what everything means, both in my career and my life. I feel like I’m a pretty ambitious person, but recently I have been contemplating WHY I want to be successful as a producer/musician. I’ve come to realize that my ego was hard at work. The need to impress people, to be the best, and to showoff were some of my motivators to reach  success. I’m hoping to completely change that in the new year. 

I don’t want to change my goals and aspirations, they’re bigger and more ambitious than ever. However, what I DO want to change are the intentions for those goals (the WHY). Instead of stroking my ego, I want to make the best music I can make simply for the sake of spreading joy and progressing the art. Instead of putting unique sounds in my songs to seem “cool” or  “different” from other producers, I want a listener to be inspired to make something unique themselves.

So for 2015, I want to take a big mental shift away from my ego. Just drop that motherfucker and free up mental space to really make great music for the sake of great music. That’s what comes first! The branding, marketing, merch, etc. come second. Honestly just writing this stuff down and sharing it with you feels really good. 

I hope that we all have a sweet 2015 ahead of us! I deeply appreciate all the support you guys have given me so far. I have a ton of news (I know I keep saying that) that I will be sharing shortly! Cheers!

P.S. Here is new song for you to take into the new year with you ;)

For this record I first went out to New York to record with some of the daptone records guys to get the main groove Of the tune. Then I had to travel out to Van Nyus to record a children's choir, which was the most nerve racking thing I have done in my entire life! Having a group of 7-11 year olds sing your song is quite the feeling. I then finished up the song with Mike Avery in Chicago. He was one super soulful dude and really captured the golden era funk vibes that I love so much. Overall, this is a song that is a total funk dance party. Enjoy with friends, preferably in a room full of disco balls :)

Say It Loud is an album that took me all around the United States recording sounds from funk jam sessions to children's choirs, trumpet solos in the forest to saxophone lines in the boiler room of my house - it is an album for everyone. This music is meant to be experienced, danced to, sang along with, felt… that's what it's all about.

BASSNECTAR - UNLIMITED - OUT NOW
www.bassnectar.net/unlimited

This is one of my favorite songs on the new album. I have listened to that 1st "drop" on loop approximately 18 zillion times; it reminds me of the sparkling melodic downtempo I fell so deeply in love with back in the day - exploring the side rooms & chill rooms with avant-garde sound-systems playing music from left field… or spiraling liquid abstract downtempo that would play during sunrise at a free outdoor full-moon celebration. Listening to this style of music was one of the 1st times I really registered in my mind that I was hearing an 808 bass, and it began a whole side-genre for me as a producer: using those drums to strengthen any other genre or sound. And who doesn't love a good vocoder… also a classic sound to my ears from the 1990s rave scene. This one says "We're reaching out to set you free" and it captures that healing energy of feeling rescued by friends (or angels) - this is one of the most important effects music has had on my life: making me feel healed.
