Seems like everyday we’re losing another legend. 💔 RIP to the incomparable icon Roy Ayers. Roy Ayer’s was a true master & god of his craft, a man that wore many hats. He was a funk/soul/jazz composer, vibraphone player, music producer, pioneer, visionary, innovator & icon. Not only did he pioneer jazz-funk, but he has been dubbed 'The Godfather of Neo Soul' — in other words, where would your favorite artist be without Roy Ayers legacy. He’s best known for the tune that I know you all are familiar with 'Everybody Loves the Sunshine' , ‘Searchin' & 'Running Away’. At one time, he was even said to have had more sampled hits by rappers than any other artist. Rest in Peace & Power Roy. Thanks to you, music has been forever changed & your legacy will never die.

This week’s #saturdaysound is Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence ( Also known as Furyo). I fell in love with the title track in Undergrad and found myself drawn to the beautiful melody. Background on the soundtrack: This was originally a soundtrack for the 1983 movie which stars David Bowie, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Takeshi Kitano and Jack Thompson.

Most of the melodies are attributed to only Ryuichi Sakamoto & David Sylvain ( who also sings Forbidden Colors). Translucent Orange was the Barnes and Noble’s exclusive edition.

Trigger warning: This movie deals with themes of war and prisoners of war.
