Monk, Bunk, And Vice Versa is the first track from arranger/bandleader Mark Masters' new recording Blue Skylight.  On the CD, he reimagines the music of iconic jazz composers Charles Mingus and Gerry Mulligan.

The album features the Mark Masters Ensemble with veteran players Putter Smith, Gary Foster and Gene Cipriano, among others.

Monk, Bunk And Vice Versa - Mark Masters

"Convection" is the first track from the Satoko Fujii Quartet's new album "Live at Jazz Room Cortez," available October 20, 2017 via Cortez Sound.

The quartet features pianist Fujii, trumpeter Natsuki Tamura, drummer Takashi Itani, and violinist Keisuke Ohta. Something told Fujii to use violinist Ohta instead of a bassist and she went with her gut feeling. The result is an album with a unique group sound and vision that brings fresh insight into her compositions.

Propensity is the first track from guitarist/composer Rez Abbasi's strikingly original album "Unfiltered Universe" out November 10 via Whirlwind Recordings.

The album features Abbasi's South Asian-inspired supergroup Invocation with saxophonist Rudresh Mahanthappa, pianist Vijay Iyer, bassist Johannes Weidenmueller, and drummer Dan Weiss, as well as guest cellist Elizabeth Mikhael.

It's the third album in a trilogy exploring different South Asian musics.  Where Invocation's 2008 debut Things To Come highlighted the influences of North Indian Hindustani music with guest vocalist Kiran Ahluwalia, and their 2011 follow-up Suno Suno, the Qawwali music of Abbasi's native Pakistan, Unfiltered Universe takes as its point of departure the Carnatic music of South India.

In the beginning, there was only darkness---there was blackness. From this blackness sprung forth an atom. That atom realized itself and became. It became and shaped itself into this universe, this world, and into our being. 

This Spirit Jazz mix highlights the mystery, the intrigue, the insurmountable strength and power, the abundance, the nurturance, the everlasting beauty that has sprung forth from that darkness and is encapsulated in nature as well as within Black people. Blackness: it is this unknown, receptive energy that absorbs and has the power to destroy, transform, and create something new. This energy, seen as threatening, unholy, a mystery, feared for it has been misunderstood, is the means for creation. For the blackest soil holds the richness nutrients and from darkness births light.

Here is my rendition of How High the Moon. I think the chords sound super great as a ballad so I will usually start it off slow, then have my band kick in halfway and play it regular speed. Such a good song. I did the ballad in one take, then improv'd the rest of the song.

The charismatic Molina (Geena/Antinote) hits again on his well named Worldwide Zen label with a eight tracks album! It has this exotic lover vibe, with delay, eighties synths and drums. 
Bamboo Cell starts with a tropical vibe, that puts you in the mood for the rest. The flute and some sort of melodica enchants you, you’re almost on a cloud in the jungle without having to fight with what ever creature.
Through the bonus CD, D.K. presents his own interpretation of the track.

Nick Walters & The Paradox Ensemble - Dear Old Thing (STW Premiere)

Leipzig label Kontrapunkt’s inaugural record presents a richly diverse collection of music that spans from world music infused house in the vein of many Sex Tags releases to break ridden, hard hitting, low-fi techno through to considered ambient music. Despite the variation Kontra is held together by a unifying underground style that every track shares.
