Push the Fader Radio (Latin Jazz Especial) – February 2012February 9th, 2012
*All Vinyl Mix From my studio to where ever you may be in the world- welcome to the latest installment of Push the Fader Radio! This month’s podcast is dedicated to two of my musical loves- Jazz and Latin music. The place where they meet is beautiful, artists from both genres lighting up each other’s sessions, running off of pure influence and inspiration. From reading the backs of the LPs covers, you see certain Latin artists featured as session musicians, often on classic Jazz recordings, while more than a few Jazz players have recorded on timeless Salsa LPs. That blend has created some incredible music and this mix is just a few of those moments that I’ve been listening to lately. Enjoy!

Fresh and new for 2012! Push the Fader Radio is back this month, featuring a mix of both unreleased and classic selections of music in Soul, Jazz, Latin, Brazilian and Hip-Hop. A good number of cover tunes played on this month’s show, from Tall Black Guy Productions‘ version of MJ’s Thriller with Renee Dion, to the Jazz Crusaders version of “Eleanor Rigby”. I got a thing for covers, especially when an artist can take a classic and make it their own. Okay, enough talking, let’s get to the Center Bumps…to the great year to come!

To be honest, I could have easily kept running back Robert Glasper’s “Afro Blue feat Erykah Badu” for the entire hour of this month’s radio podcast. It’s one of them tunes! I can’t seem to stop repeating that one ever since I first received an advance of it at Electric Lady Studios a couple weeks back. Still, that would be a major de-service to you all, simply because this months show is packed with that many goodies! New, unreleased, exclusive and timeless music from The Robert Glasper Experiment, J.Rawls & The Liquid Crystal Project, Zaki Ibrahim, Tall Black Guy, Joe Blaxx + The Temptations, José James, Jamie Woon, Damian ‘Jr. Gong’ Marley and much, much more. Tune in, download and enjoy! Happy Holidays to you and yours from the Push the Fader family!

November is here and with it the next installment of Push the Fader Radio has arrived!

Packed with music I’ve come across, been bumping in the studio and/or have experienced live. From Will Sessions’ beautiful instrumental take on Nas + Q-Tip’s classic, “One Love”, to taking in Nicola Conte’s jazz outfit live at LPR in NYC- the music has been flowing.

* All Vinyl Mix | Cover Artwork by Andrés Jiménez This month’s podcast mix comes to you courtesy of the Paris based website for all things soulful, funky and deep – Paris DJs. I’ve been checking for Paris DJs for a number of years now, always updated with the latest info on some of my favorite artists and releases. When the opportunity came to do an exclusive mix for their site, I was more than happy to put this together. Below are a couple questions you may have regarding the mix and you’ll find the link to download it straight to your digital player here. What are Center Bumps? Center Bumps are tunes that I’m feeling that particular week and/or month. They are songs in constant rotation and highlight new and old music that I’ve dug up in that respective time period. I use to include charts in my mailing list emails and people would always write back asking how they could hear that music. Well, now you can courtesy of these monthly mixes. Why did you choose to do an all Vinyl mix? To be honest I’m still high off of Everything in Time being released on vinyl. Vinyl is still my favorite way to listen to music. I have so many gems that haven’t been released digitally, so it made sense to spread love the analog way. Why Paris DJs? Djouls and crew been putting it down for years on that side of the Atlantic, always keeping it fresh. With so many people in common, it was only a matter of time til we connected online for a release! Live at Devil’s Pie, NYC (Download)September 6th, 2011
There’s something about putting together a classic Brooklyn party vibe, in a sexy Williamsburg basement lounge, with a packed house of folks from both coasts and the lands inbetween. I bring to you my set live from Devil’s Pie, NYC. Hosted by Dee Phunk. Enjoy.

*All Vinyl Mix | Cover Artwork by Haylow for the Roy Ayers Project It’s been just over three weeks since Gil’s passing. Like all death, it is extremely hard to initially get the news, but as time goes on, we find ways to move on and the reality of someone passing fades, deep into our memories. Well, to me, this one is different. The reality of Gil’s passing and the void that has been left with his absence, has been hanging over me since Friday, May 27th. Gil had a voice and spirit like no other- beautiful, soulful and real, with every word he spoke. Whether it was through his critique of America and the ‘deals in back alleys where politicians often hide’ or his call to unify the Black community, shining light on the injustices done to people of color, Gil did it like no other and to the death.

*note: track listing is available by clicking the fourth button from the top left on the player above I had a ball putting together this mix for the W Hotels DJ App that launched this week. The premise was to take some of my favorite tunes (new and old) and blend them into a continuous mix, creating a musical atmosphere for the listener in the comfort of their pocket hand held. You can instantly purchase any of the tunes from iTunes as you hear them and the App is free. My ‘Push the Fader – Worldwide‘ mix can be found in the ‘Living Room‘ section of the App, (screenshot below). You can also listen to the mixes online here.
