Ever since making the first family jazz mix in 2020, I knew I’d want to put together another to showcase more of my family’s music in this way. So when I got asked to play a family jazz set as part of the Tipper & Friends takeover at Secret Dreams festival this year, I knew it was the perfect opportunity to do so.

This project felt like a collage to me - spent a lot of time gathering old recordings from family members, piecing together with electronic tracks, and doing new recordings on top of that. It would not be possible without all the musicians and producers whose music I featured in this curation so be sure to see the full track list below. Special shoutouts to my dad Paul Barbato, Uncle Joe “Sonny” Barbato, Uncle Artie Barbato, and family friend Bill Jones for doing many recording sessions with me and making this set extra special.

Lots of love was put into this mix and I do hope you enjoy. As I said after making the first one, I am grateful for having a family that taught me music as one of the greatest pleasures in life, and I hope that this helps keep the vibrant genre of jazz alive and celebrated.

Live at Tipper & Friends 4321 Event

Here is the newest Shanti Planti series episode by PATHWEY.

Pathwey is the brainchild of Asheville based producer, composer, instrumentalist, visual artist, and DJ, Andrew Bunyan. Through the fusion of cutting edge sound design, hyper detailed production, and unique composition, Pathwey masterfully constructs captivating auditory experiences. His immersive soundscapes are alive with organic textures, mind-bending basslines, dynamic instrumentations, and evolving rhythms that move the body, mind, and soul. Pathwey has released music through a number of different labels, including Merkaba Music and Aquatic Collective, and has performed at festivals and events across the US and Canada.

With influences covering the spectrum of electronic music, from psychedelic, dubstep, drum’n’bass, and glitch-hop, to downtempo, IDM, ambient, and world music, Pathwey takes listeners on a journey beyond the boundaries of genre into new and unknown realms of sound. His inspiration stems from many sources including his past experiences, the beauty of nature, cultures from around the world, deep visionary states, and the unsolved mysteries of life. With these catalysts, Pathwey boldly explores the depth of human emotion, forging a path from our ancient past to our distant future to create a moment of pure self expression.

The intention behind the project is to make a positive impact on the world and its inhabitants. Through fundraising and promoting progressive ideas, Pathwey is not only a journey through sound, but also a vehicle for positive environmental and social transformation. In an industry driven by trends and consumerism, Pathwey diverges from the herd and carves his own passage through the world of music. Guided solely by the heart and the forces of inspiration, there is no telling where the journey might take us…

I am here to immerse myself in the captivating exploration of the psychological and experiential dimensions of music. Crafting sonic compositions from sine waves, zeroes and ones, translated through the medium of air vibrations, establishes a unique connection between the artist's conceptualized emotion or idea and the listener's subjective experience. The process of transmitting these coded messages, whether through the internet or a sound system, resonating with ear drums, unfolds as a truly captivating phenomenon.
As listeners unpack this sonic code, the interpretation becomes a deeply personal and subjective journey, shaped by the intricate prism of their individual life experiences and associations. Music's remarkable ability to connect individuals on a profound emotional level is extraordinary—it possesses the power to unite people, transcend boundaries, and cultivate a shared, collective experience. Music unlocks body expression and frees the emotions. In essence, the collective miracle of music lies in its capacity to evoke emotions, bridge gaps, and weave a shared tapestry of human experience.
