Sit & Listen Sundays

Tycho – Awake

This album is best heard through headphones or some decent monitor speakers. Listen and you will hear so many great subtleties with top notch production value. It’s no surprise his name is appearing in many of the major festivals of late. When listening to this artist one gets a feeling of utter control. Nothing you hear is out of place even as the sounds move around in your spacial perception so vividly. After all this sonic experience there’s still the great design of his covers. Tycho is definitely an artful experience.

Horace Silver’s Blue Note Years – Mix

If you have work to do ’round your house this sunday or you’re simply relaxing reading a book or procrastinating from prepping for Monday madness, this mix is for you. A groovy backround to chores or a fixating addition to your lazy nothing time.

Horace Silver died last year much to my dismay. I discovered this mix as tribute to his legacy on my friend’s soundcloud account. Rest in peace you jazz legend. I wish you didn’t have to die for me to notice your incredible body of work in jazz.
