Favoriting Music For a Free World with Dave Sewelson: Playlist from May 15, 2021 Favoriting

Dave Sewelson's avatar View Dave Sewelson's profile Favoriting

Charles Mingus said jazz was a word invented to separate musicians from their money. Music for a Free World brings us together, drawing listeners to the healing power of smooth free jazz. Each week, surprise guests bring their own sides to spin and their instruments of choice to spontaneously jam.

Favoriting May 15, 2021: Aron Namenwirth is a Brooklyn guitarist. His current associates in crime include: Daniel Carter, Luisa Muhr, Ayumi Ishito, Eric Plaks, Yutaka Takahashi, Zach Swanson, and Jon Panikkar in a group called Playfield.
The 3 volume trilogy is currently available on orbit 577 records. He is particularly fond of drummers whom he finds closest to trees in personality- including John Loggia, Joe Hertenstein and Kevin Shea. Their deep roots in the vibrations of nature nurtures his motives. Aron’s most joy however, comes from 2 incredible woman Nancy Horowitz and Jane Wirth, responsible for endless daily inspiration, wisdom, and purpose. Never mind keeping him on his toes and sunscreen on his nose.

@Dave: the last four bandcamp links on the playlist are broken: they show up right, but the links go to wfmu.org..., which doesn't go anywhere

Thanks Aron and Dave! The song "Where Is Home" is dedicated to all those who are exiled, displaced, fucked up by state violence.

Recorded in Seattle by the dude who helped launch Grunge by producing Seattle Grunge pioneers' first few albums. He's in album credits with pseudonym, as one of members of Roses & Roaches, because of the state violence instilled fear.

@fred....thanks for the heads up....Try now

Rose:

This song "Locust Tree" on air now is a Sichuan folk song, sung in Sichuanese/English. My visual artist mother taught me this song. She's self taught. Every track on the album "And Yet We Ain't Alone" was recorded in a single take. I met drummer for the first time n the studio. No rehearsals of discussions prior to the recording. I rapped the song "Locusts and Roaches" on the spot. Thanks guys!

thanks Aron & Dave for the interview. I didn't expected to be interviewed at all. Was making coffee when Aron called, didn't hear coz my espresso machine is very loud and old. Glad the phone worked in the end. Thank YOU so much!! xoxo

Rose:

And many thanks @btanjr for your encouragement and support! HK is in a very dire situation because of the Chinese government's colonial dictatorship and multinationals just want China as a market and sweatshop, never mind people's human rights and freedoms!

Thank you Dave (and WFMU and Kenzo) for bringing us the sounds and information. Thank you Aron, Rose, and all the other for creating the sounds and expressions. I just subscribed to 577 on bandcamp last bc Friday. Still exploring the many many great recordings. The Free World episode today has given me lots of help in that exploration.

Thanks to all for Free World expressions for human rights and dignity.
