It’s muggy in San Antonio. I’ve got a cold and I don’t feel like my head is in the game. I’m falling behind on all kinds of stuff. We’re going a little lower energy this week. Nevertheless, when do I take this show low energy? That’s got to be an interesting change up in itself.

The Line-Up for 26 April 2013

Dayna Stephens – Dah Dot Dah

I’m still hyping the new releases and Dayna Stephens’ That Nepenthetic Place is certainly worthy of such hype.

Rel – Heart Beat On It

Darcy James Argue‘s Secret Society – Missing Parts

Today’s the last day Brooklyn Babylon is streaming at NPR, but now you have the chance to buy the album to enjoy for yourself.

Christian McBride & Inside Straight – Gang Gang

I’ve been waiting for this album for a little while now ever since I saw McBride come to town a couple months ago. It was a great evening wherein he and Inside Straight laid out some new material. Now we finally have this material for posterity’s sake.

Radiohead – Climbing Up the Walls (Zero 7 Remix)

Gilad Hekselman – Nothing Personal

New and mellow is the theme for the week and this Hekselman track fit the bill.

Uri Gurvich – Camelao

This Uri Gurvich track isn’t as mellow but it’s certainly new. BabEl is out now!

Pazes – Etacarinae

Eldar Djangirov – Morning Bell

About a week or so ago, I heard this song playing on the air at just the right time to spur me into copping the album. I’m a sucker for a Radiohead cover.

(U)nity – Creepin’

It’s a bit of a jolt to get used to this song with such an irregular beat but it pays off.

Butcher Brown – The River

I’m not often one to play softer tracks on the show but this song demanded it. I knew I’d find the right show for it at some point. Butcher Brown is great for all occasions.

Nujabes – The Space Between Two Worlds

Eddie Moore and the Outer Circle – Houston Vision

I’ve been enjoying The Freedom of Expression but haven’t played enough of it on the air. Also, Moore started following me on Twitter which brought his work back to mind. Also, I needed a mellow closer.

Beastie Boys – To All The Girls

I was under time this week and this felt like the perfect filler.

My mind is mostly on getting the Jazz for the Masses Party on March 13th together. How this show came to be and as good as it is is beyond me. There’s just a lot of talented musicians out there.

The Line-Up for 22 February 2013

Ian Carey Quintet +1 – Count Up
I had gotten Roads & Cones a few weeks ago but in my inbox it sat. Now upon its release, I figured it was time to let it out and give it a chance.
Flying Lotus All the Secrets feat. Austin Peralta
Nadje Noordhuis – Le Fin
Noordhuis’ album is another release I’ve been sleeping on that I need to give its due attention.
Bob Reynolds – Can’t Wait for Perfect
This was the only track the computer place in the hour that I decded to keep. Reynolds recently released some more live recrdings that are also worth checking out.
Mostly Other People Do the Killing – Yo, Yeo, Yough
Oddly enough, this is the second track from MOPDtK’s Slippery Rock that I’ve played on the show even though it’s their first “single”.
MF DOOM – Licorice
Poyser, Riggins, Jackson – Funky Butt
Daniel Ori – Back It Up
As I was putting this show together, I had a two and a half minute hole that needed filling. I ran across bassist Daniel Ori and now I must know more about this dude.
NEXT Collective – Fly or Die
Cover Art finally graces the world this week. Are you ready for it?
Beastie Boys – Multilateral Nuclear Disarmament
Darryl Reeves – Star of Detroit
I’ve been playing Darryl Reeves like crazy lately. Listen to this and you can see why.
Chris Dave – Afrika… I Freak Her
If you haven’t copped the Chris Dave and the Drumhedz Mixtape, stop being a fool.
Teebs – _for phil
Mark de Clive-Lowe & the Rotterdam Jazz Orchestra – Take the Space Trane
This is a great track, isn’t it? You should get Take the Space Trane. In fact, this is the only track from the album that I have. Why don’t I have this album?

This was a painstaking process, cobbling together newness and stuff that may have been passed over in other arenas but fit quite well here. This week’s show is also a bit heavier in the vocals, though I’m not sure why.

The Line-Up for 18 January 2013

Wayne Shorter Quartet – S.S. Golden Mean
I’ve been kind of obsessed with the new Wayne Shorter album, Without a Net, since I’ve had it. He’s still a legend and he still comes with fire.
Mister Barrington – Helter’s Kelter
Ben Goldberg – The Because Of
I had been playing tracks from Unfold Ordinary Mind so oten that it seemed onl fair to also feature something from Subatomic Particle Homesick Blues.
Marquis Hill – Clearfield’s
This track is all about Josh Moshier’s piano work. Too cool.
Christian McBride & Inside Straight – Brother Mister
Christian McBride is playing The Carver in February. This almost snuck up on me.
Nujabes – The Space Between Two Worlds
Christian Scott – Bartlett
I felt a bit down this week and this somber track was a go to for me. It’s also one of my favorite songs on Christian aTunde Adjuah
Donny McCaslin – Losing Track of Daylight
I wanted an excuse to make wubwubwub sounds on the radio.
Flying Lotus – Breathe . Something/Stellar STar
Michael Kiwanuka – Tell Me a Tale
Michael Kiwanuka is a man outside of time.
José James – Vanguard
I’m not sure who will say it, but “Vanguard” is possibly the coolest track on James’ new album (which drops tomorrow).
#ProducedByTheVamp – Let Me feat. DrewVision & (U)nity
I’ve had my eyes out for (U)nity for a minute now just waiting for them to release some material. This isn’t theirs specifically but it’ll do for now.
Rel – Heart Beat On It
Chris Dave – Cosmic Slop
Chris “Daddy” Dave put out a free mixtape, so if you’re reading this, you may be required by law to cop it. I’m not sure, though; I’m not a lawyer or anything.

This show is an interesting little hodgepodge of new and old. I rather like it.

The Line-Up for 25 January 2013

Gretchen Parlato – E.S.P.
I’ve had this song sitting on a list of prospective songs for the show for months now but I only recently made the effort to fit it in. It’ll come to mind from time to time, singing Parlato’s arrangement absentmindedly while walking.
Hiatus Kaiyote – Nakamarra (Bendaur’s Double Rainbow Mix)
Menahan Street Band – Lights Out
The computer actually picked this one, all it needed was its proper home in the hour.
Eric Harland – Voyager
The computer picked this one, too, and I so love Harland’s Voyager: Live By Night. I may play this album for myself just for bringing it up. You should, too. You owe it to yourself.
Radiohead – Meeting in the Aisle
Kurt Rosenwinkel – Homage A’Mitch
Since my column last week used a Facebook discourse with Aaron Parks as the opening premise, I felt it necessary to feature him, so I pulled up the new Rosenwinkel album once again.
Brad Mehldau Trio – 26
Ode has been growing on me more and more.
Karriem Riggins – daooooh!!
ELEW – Thanksgiving
Last week, ELEW took to Twitter at length haranguing about his lack of jazz radio play, so I gave him some radio play.
Yaron Herman Quartet – Homemade
A nice thing about regularly commuting again is playing music on the show from the commute again.
Chris Dave – Fly Girl
You copped Chris Dave’s new mixtape already, right?
Space Ghost – Starship 2091
Doctor Magnum – ALL CAPS/NY State of Mind
These guys out of Albany, NY, emailed me a couple times so I finally checked them out (I get a lot of email). You should, too.
