HEAR HERE :: WKNON.017 "NIGHT SKIES + EVERGREEN" THE LATEST INSTALLATION OF OUR BI-WEEKLY RADIO-CAST! [See our insta-fam bio-link] ▪︎ Nor-so-suddenly realized that our every-other-week mock digi-radio show has slipped off the calendar track. . We've all been a bit distracted by stuff, things and the world around us. . Look for a new [2 hour] episode of fresh picks and legacy faves, each or every other week... We like to be agile! . The twenty tunes and tracks we feature this week include a few we have loved [post-2000] mixed in with a model majority of music from the last couple of years... with a heavy emphasis on the new-new! . We Hope You Love It As We Do! [Link+Sync in our Insta-fam Bio] ▪︎ #Jazz #NotJazz #JazzNotJazz #ModernJazz #TheNonsemble #ContemporaryJazz #NewJazz #JazzAtLeftOfCenter (at Ghost Town Venice) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGOWiIrgBpz/?igshid=ysht2jo90g0z

HERE HEAR :: AUSTRA-SOUL TIANA KHASI :: MEGHALAYA :: It seems there is something in the water... That surrounds and runs through the sunshine state of Australia, including Brisbane, the home base of the loverly miss Tiana Khasi (say: Kah-see). The Brisbane-based artist is another product of the current thriving jazz/soul incubator in Australia, delivering a sound that is unique to her eclectic lineage, a colourful heritage threading back to the hills of India and the sands of Samoa, Tiana Khasi (say: Kah-see) is carefully carving her name – and voice – across the national stage. Soul singer, jazz musician, songwriter, performer - pick any of these and you’re only just scratching the surface. :: As a trained Jazz vocalist and member of the 7-piece Jazz-Hop band, Astro Travellers, Tiana is no stranger to variation, improvisation and/or collaboration... in the instance of her debut EP "MEGHALAYA" [7 songs. One song short of an LP? Is that still considered a Maxi-Single?] the 'collaborator' is Maestre DJ/Producer, Sampology whose sample based and beat-science rich, tracks form a perfectly organic feeling earth-bed for Tiana Khasi's heartfelt, soulful lyrics and vocal song-slinging. :: Another of the Alternative Soul-Jazz jinxes seemingly in abundance in the antipodes.  :: Welcome aboard, little sister. We're rooting for you out here! :: @TianaKhasi @Sampology @SoulHasNoTempo #Jazz #NotJazz #JazzNotJazz #JazzVox #JazzInBrisbane #JazzInAustralia #AustralianJazz #SoulJazzFusion #ModernJazz #PostModernJazz #JazzAtLeftOfCenter (at Brisbane, Queensland, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwdezG0jTkD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19vdmxevalyq6

HEAR HERE :: THE COSMIC RANGE ALBUM: THE GRATITUDE PRINCIPLE :: Odds are, not many of us were looking to Toronto, Ontario, Canadiah [Oh. Canada] for a hard dose of "... an intoxicating swirl of ambient drones, hypnotic Afro-funk, synth-powered psychedelia, and drifting piano reveries". - as Pitchfork once described their the band's sound. At the same time, The Wire declared thatTHE COSMIC RANGE, "...makes bamboozling leaps back and forth between prog, krautrock, funk, Afrobeat and free jazz" :: THE NONSEMBLE will simply say... Bravo, to and for: As their debut album was hitting the shelves, Kieran Adams [Drums & Electronics], Jonathan Adjemian [Keys & Synths], Isla Craig [Vox & Fute], Matthew "Doc" Dunn [Organ, Bass, Vibes & Synths], Andy Haas [Saxophone & Electronics], Mike Smith [Keys & Bass], Maximilian Turnbull [Guitar, Wah-wah String Machine] and Brandon Valdivia [Percussion]. .

HEAR HERE :: BLACK FLOWER NEW ALBUM :: FUTURE FLORA :: Yes. Ethiopian Phsycho-Dub-Rock straight out of ... Yes. Belgium.  :: The Nathan Daems and the BLACK FLOWER gang are hardly new to this... several strong releases in, Saxophonist, Composer and band-leader, Nathan Daems also contributes several more instruments and a hand to this band and many others. . Jon Birdsong rounds out the two-handed horn section herein, playing Cornet and Cornetto [he's also played with and for another favorite of THE NONSEMBLE, during his former stint with The Flat Earth Society]. Except here, he also plays sea shells.  . Wouter Haest kills the keys - Organ and Clavinet - while the heavy rhythms are cooked up, carried and crushed by Simon Segers at the snare behind the set and Bassist, Filip Vanderbil. . If you are as much a fan of the master, Mulatu Astatke and his descendents as we are here at THE NONSEMBLE [think Imperial Tiger, The Sorcerers and Ethio-Cali] then you will perhaps LOVE the songs, sounds and styles of this music which BLACK FLOWER describes as, "...Psyche-delicious and accessible 21st century Ethiodubjazz. As if John Zorn put on Fela Kuti’s shoes and imbibed..." . In Deed. Get Into It.  :: #Jazz #NotJazz #JazzNotJazz #JazzInBelgium #JazzInBrussels #JazzInGent #JazzInAntwerp #EthiopianJazz #EthioJazz #JazzFusion #PostModernJazz #TheNonsemble #AfroJazz #JazzAtLeftOfCenter #AfroBeat #dub #PsychedelicJazzFusion (at Brussels, Belgium) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwU3K-TjNpS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=h8hyp2n2t96h
