For this episode of EXT SRC I’m going back to Brazil, this time focusing on more contemporary artists mostly in the realm of jazz and MPB.

I’m pretty familiar with 60’s and 70’s Brazilian jazz so I wanted to expand into some post-2000’s artists. I’ve spent the past week digging through Discogs, show posters, Instagram, recommmendation algorithms and my own collection to found some beautiful work. I’m looking forward to sharing!

For today’s show I’m revisiting one of my favorite styles of electronic jazz, broken beat; a diverse blend of different genres and styles from early aughts West London, born out of admiration for the likes of 70’s-era Herbie Hancock and George Duke, combined with the traditions of jungle, house, hip-hop, dub and more over African and Latin-inspired polyrhythms.

Initially I wanted to dig deeper and find tracks and artists that I wasn’t familiar with. And I did! But I couldn’t help but throw in some classics and old favorites as well. Enjoy!

A collection of new and old tracks sitting somewhere between electronic, soul, jazz and hip-hop. A few ripped straight from my driving playlist.

For today’s show I’m bringing in the new year with some 60’s-era bebop, post-bop, modal and a little bit of hard-bop jazz.

I’m not digging too deep this time around. Just some old favorites with a few new finds mixed in. A lot of Blue Note albums I’d find in the Barnes & Noble CD section in high school and proceed to blast out of my ‘96 Jeep Cherokee on the way home just to see people’s reactions. Perhaps you too can blast jazz out of your Jeep.

Finding Sounds / Outer Focus presents:

Today’s episode of Finding Sounds is very special because our guest is my late grandfather, James W Black aka Jimmy Black. He was a renown jazz pianist from here in Richmond, Virginia. He played many years and countless events with so many great musicians. His focus was mainly dixieland and swing, but he played many styles ranging from country to big band to lounge jazz to flirting with classical music in his practice time. He passed away in 2004, and there is a vcu jazz building named in his honor by his longtime friend and jazz patron Bill Singleton.
He left behind a vast collection of music. Thanks to my friend Herbert, who lent me a Portastudio, i have begun digitizing his collection. This mix is exclusively from his cassettes and includes live bootleg recordings, home practice sessions, radio rips and more very rare and likely previously unheard recordings. This is a huge project for me to digitize and archive his catalogue but its very necessary. If it werent for him I would not be here. He gave my brother and I instruments at a very young age, which we both pursued later in life. I am very grateful to him, and it is a special feeling to connect to these moments. It is like time traveling in a way.
Keep an ear out for the small conversations between songs in the live recordings. They are a real slice of life from a world which now feels so distant. Enjoy these 2 hours of piano music. Much love to you Big D. I know youre here with us.
Thank you for listening, enjoy the show.

Today I’m doing a bit of an origin story, reflecting on albums that live rent-free in my brain. That’s a weird way of saying I’m making a playlist of my favorite albums, excluding anything before 1997 because if we dig into vinyl this playlist would be 10+ hours long. These are albums that set standards for me and introduced me to new genres and styles. Maybe we share some favorites?
