The Musik Lounge

Some big changes are taking place around the Lounge! After three years in the same space it’s time to move into a more permanent location. Big things, big things! Excitement around what this shall bring in the creative realm is not to be understated. But first the present. Here goes episode number 78 of this Sabbath Sessions mix series. As we prepare fo this move and take a look at how we want to move forward Mizo & I decided we are going to take the month of May off and regroup, brainstorm and see how we want to return. You will still be able to catch us on the air at KXSU.org Saturday nights at 10 and Sunday mornings at 10 and there are countless hours of our mixes here for you to digest if you feel so inclined and miss us! Thank you for walking this journey with us and we look forward to what’s next. Press play on this here all jazz extravaganza and stay tuned!  Lester Bowie “Rope-A-Dope” David Axelrod “Ain’t For You” Nat Adderley Sextet ft. Rick Holmes “Space Spiritual” T...

  And we back, we back, we baaaaccccckkkkkk! Not like we ever left! Welcome to another Sabbath Sessions, hopefully your Sunday is off to a fantastic start. Today we have another in our line of all jazz mixes, we drop one of these off every six episodes, so if you do the math that would make this the 10th go round! While we do love the grab bag, play whatever we dig up mixes, these do hold a special place for us as the sounds of classic and modern social music are where Mizo and I truly collide and intersect our ears. Press play, turn it up, relax, burn some palo santo, sage, or whatever else you like, get your meditation or yoga on - really this is just meant to be a soundtrack to your day. Thank you for listening and be sure to check out our slightly more dialed in, sonically focused radio show “The Social Fusions Hour” on KXSU.org every Saturday night at 10 PM with an encore Sunday mornings at 10 AM! Thanks for rocking with us, we won’t stop, we love sharing these sounds with y’...

  Mizo and I linked up one mo' gin! As the end of the year approaches and we start contemplating the best sounds we heard this year (many documented right here, crazy to think we have been at this Sunday vibes thing for over three months now!) we knew it was time to lay down one more pure Jazz sesh. Given that one volume of our best of the year mixes will be entirely Jazz we figured this round would be best served to touch base on older sounds of this improvised social music we both love. We open with a Cannonball Adderley and David Axelrod jam espousing the traits of a Gemini over an atmospheric groove. As it plays along you will see some familiar names from the past and the more recent scene. Mizo dropped in a Freddie Hubbard jam and the tunes spoke to me in a way that I couldn't refuse an Irreversible Entanglements tune from their debut I recently swooped from IA's bandcamp. Hopefully the sounds here will soundtrack this gray and drizzly Sunday with peace, joy and som...
