Exactly a century ago, George Gershwin made history with „Rhapsody In Blue“. A work that not only united jazz and classical music but also became a symbol of American (music) culture. Inspired by the blue notes which are typical for jazz, Gershwin chose the form of the rhapsody for his work. Without a fixed structure and with plenty of room for interpretation, he filled his work with the optimism and freedom that America stood those days.
Arrived in the year 2024, Chris Wayfarer adds a further note to the masterpiece. With the focus on central themes of the original, the artist brings the track to the dance floor. And so „Rhapsody For The Floor“ is melting house music, jazz and classical music with a four- four-time. A tribute to liberty and 100 years of Americas music history.

Early preview of a downbeat and mournful, reflective, Sunday morning in the sun kind of instrumental arrangement of Summer-Time (by George Gershwin).
For the lovely girl who served me breakfast and got off work 2 hours early due to how quiet it was (really? quiet? moi?)
Using S.W.A.M. instruments by http://AudioModeling.com played with a ROLI Rise-49 Seaboard and good old Behringer UMX-490 standard MIDI keyboard.
(...with foot-pedals for breathiness / formant and seaboard faders controlling growl / flutter / 'harmonic structure')
For now it's just a quick chords reference for me to learn to perform correctly

Sumtime (Piano-Sax)

Sincilious - Sumtime (Sax-Piano) (Summer Time by George Gershwin)

This is my impression from conversations, images, scenes, and stories of urban life--in particular, a dream I had in which George Gershwin's Concerto in F kept looping against a black & white "movie" of 1920s New York City. Rather than feel overwhelmed by metropolis, I harmonized with it and let it absorb me. The music bed is from Cafe Khufu live improv sessions in lower East Side Manhattan, with the lovely Frisell-ian guitar work of Richie Devletian and the spot-on dumbek-beatwork of my friend and colleague Felipe Torres. It’s track #6 on my recently reissued I LIKE THE STREET album.

Three Priorities in UK, if you've not noticed things are icky and we're all doom scrolling instead of listening and caring (skills I've sadly not fed till quite recently) but if you can, be kind, give, clothes in good condition, food or goods that free up room etc. Also don't overburden the NHS and if possible go private (as I/others with Auto-Immune conditions on the Paleo diet avoiding soy/lecithins and wheat have to do). But also... did I hear the magic word "Change" ?

Ambient Electronica based in Cardiff with visuals - all my own work, that's right - I'm an art thief (: Poser3D has long come free with skeleton 3D Models and a material that is meant to be stained glass windows, someone else's work and all I did was drag the one onto the other, simples :)

Began making ambient noises before learning to speak - mind you, up until that point everything HAD been satisfactory. Black and Decker, the radiators humming and singing maybe? Oh yes, and a loon or two.

Basically, play a couple of vids in different tabs you can make your own mixtape, whadyaneed me for? I'm learning to eat/rest properly and to draw... ta-rara-bit.

About 20 years ago I entered suspended animation (extreme ME/CFS + "Gut Dysbiosis" - mould/allergy problems) am now on mend, in fact better yet I'm hopeful it is possible to go several days, tidy up and donate etc, without a 'Post-Exertional Malaise Crash" aka a PEM Crash - this is what led to spoon theory but I do a form of mindfulness where I mind NOT to subscribe, say yes, bend or pick up sbwriel and where possible observe a sort of body/mind speed limit of a monk, around 1.5 mph unless they're running late.

Blasting Music (space-invaders themed jam) came from Euro-Techno mate jam on 3rd floor, we each heard whoops, bleeps, sirens, asked "Is that you?" - later friends came back from a techno night, pointed out ash & smoke two doors down with fire/ambulance crews attending. Everyone was OK (phew) and thus from some weird sort of crucible it was born... Lovingly rescued & restored from C-90 tape (with mid 90s tech/software) it was well-received by more hard-core acid-techno fans, as well as 'the touched'

Blasted Mutants (blasting music reblasted 2025/6) will be what then bandmate wanted all along. "Scurried" is but a whisper of a flavour of what's in store.

Forthcoming singles from Through the Wormhole and Impeachy include "Preponderous" and "Going Critical" (versions of which can be found on youtube and reverbnation) - videos coming too, to a mid-2025 near you - watch space!

On a somewhat personal (medical) note - I'm Kif (in artworks) but the band name is Doktor Kif in honour of a 'right person' for the job... getting it

In other news: resting till 2025/recovering from mould-related ME/CFS problem (search "ME/CFS Gut Dysbiosis")

A dietician helped form weight-loss/deficiency treatment of key vitamins & minerals (did thesis on villi getting out of sync leading to non-absorption):

Eat v slowly, 30m, savour the flavour, 3-5 days
Clear out eg clothes/boxes, bag everything to clean later with mould treatment (softener draw)
Flush radiator surfaces (put soapy water down them with bag/blanket below to catch water/dust)
EG Shark vacuum/Air Purifier (in extreme cases)
Rescue (1st week)
Pro-Biotics
EnsurePlus (take 'as needed' I guess 1/day?)

My regimen (just an example, taking some on alternate days):

This first one is important - apparently the body will not be able to do anything with some of these without others hence my previous regimen taking the Floradix Vitamin B complex massively missed the mark and I still struggled a lot.

"Vitamin B Complex Capsules B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7 B9, B12 UK Clean Supplements" from e-Bay supplier "uknutrilifesupplements" aka "Healthy Life supplements LTD" of County Tyrone, Ireland.

IRON (lifesaver! Ferrate something? Have got it written down at home)
Selenium with Vitamins A, C & E
Equazen Omega cpsules (EPAs / long-chain fatty acids)
Magnesium
Co-Enzyme Q10
Zinc
Rude Health Coconut Milk with Calcium and Vitamin D2 (lifesaver)

Tried BuckThorn juice for a while but was told even half a bottle is too high a dose and it did feel like it was pushing my metabolism. Two weeks on zinc etc and vits A-E and avoiding wheat while having pro-biotics and omega 3+6 long-chain fatty acid high EPA capsules? Peachy, just put on most of a kg somewhere this week, weight-loss stabilised and hopefully reversed. Will be nice to see if I should have a belly, or be 'svelt' when finally consult the right specialists (up to 6 month wait sometimes, but optimistic, stopped my weight loss and at least can 'pinch an inch' like the ads used to say... happy days)

Live well, Love Well, SLEEP well
But above all, EAT well and BE well

Entertainer, songwriter, and “Singer at Large” Johnny J. Blair is known for his brand of “pop music with a twist,” influenced by Americana, British Invasion rock, old school soul/r’n’b, psychedelia, and punk/new wave, with melodicism breathed by classical, gospel, jazz, and world music. 

As a solo acoustic act or when fronting a band, Johnny engages an audience. He was called “a white James Brown” by Brown’s legendary drummer, Clyde Stubblefield. Johnny’s current itinerary includes performing in assisted living homes for people with disabilities and dementia: “Music goes through the brain into places where math and language don’t reach. It heals, and it makes a difference.”

Since the 80s, Johnny has issued full-length recordings to a global audience— from the “new wave concept album” DOOR IN THE WATER, to the soulful masterwork FIRE, to the bare-knuckled acoustic “agitpop” of TREADMARKS, to the “Ziggy Stardust meets PET SOUNDS” of GRATEFUL to the glam-tango tinged masterwork I LIKE THE STREET (with musical support from The Badlees, Eric Biondo/Beyondo, and Mike Garson, David Bowie’s pianist).

Johnny has worked with a range of acts—most prominently with Davy Jones of The Monkees (“I learned valuable stagecraft from David”). Johnny played and worked with Jones for 20 years, and he was the touring bassist/vocalist with The Monkees 45th Anniversary Tour of the UK and USA. Other artists Johnny has played with are John Bechdel (Ministry), David Cassidy, Buddy & Julie Miller, and Al Stewart (“Year of the Cat”). 

For 2019, Johnny on the beat with fresh material and a new album in the works, WE’RE GETTING CLOSER TO THE SUN. He says, “I’ve played the Royal Albert Hall, CBGB’s, Disney, The Fillmore, Las Vegas, Mabuhay Gardens, the Tokyo Billboard, holy temples in India, desert islands, Caribbean cruise ships, churches, prisons, garages, biker bars, and picnics, but I’ll really hit it big when I play for you!”
