Total Sonic Media

15 years ago today, this album by the magnificent Sharon Jones was released, mastered by yours truly directly off of 1/4" 15ips 2-track analog tape reels at the original Total Sonic Media studio in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. I will always be grateful to the fine folks at Daptone Records for choosing to work with me for a good number of their projects then. Rest In Power Ms. Jones & thank you for the music!

Beim Handykauf war mir die Qualität der Kamera egal, da ich ja sowieso immer eine (halb-)richtige™ Kamera mit mir führe. Bis man letztere dann halt irgenwie zuhause vergisst und mit schlechten Pixeln hinter seinem Funkturm sitzt.

…What's the frequency, Kenneth?…

Die meisten Nutzer von solchen Funksystemen für Headsets wissen nicht, wie man die Frequenzen einstellt. Auch gegen die Feedback-Anfälligkeit der Mics mit Kugel-Charakteristik haben sie keine Waffen (oder wissen nicht, wie man sie bedient). Naja. Das sind so die kleinen Dinge, die mir den Job sicherer machen.

Noch. In Zukunft macht das KI.

Stretch. Why Did You Do It

Written in response to a music business 'betrayal' Stretch's only hit single is a great bit of rock-funk. Its a driving funk rhythm with a great sparse production including some great horn playing and backing its signature gravelly vocals. Its a bit like a sort of mutant Average White Band, which they never managed to repeat (perhaps they poured all the outrage into this one song?)

Funk.net: Jahrhundertgift PFAS: Wie die Chemie-Lobby Verbote verhindert


Der Meeresschaum an deutschen Küsten ist mit Chemikalien belastet – sogenannten PFAS. Diese "Ewigkeitschemikalien" verschwinden nicht einfach wieder, sondern reichern sich in der Umwelt und sogar in uns Menschen an. Und das kann gesundheitliche Folgen haben, zum Beispiel ein erhöhtes Krebsrisiko. Dabei steckt PFAS in vielen Alltagsprodukten – von Antihaft-Pfannen über Kosmetika und Pizzakartons bis hin zu Medizingeräten. Die EU will diese Chemikalien einschränken, doch die Chemie-Lobby wehrt sich mit aller Kraft und hat in der Politik sogar schon Erfolge erzielt. Dabei ist klar: Die Chemikalien sind ein riesiges Problem – warum sind sie noch nicht verboten?

O’Donel Levy – Simba (1974, US)

Our next spotlight is on number 303 on The List, submitted by weirdofhermiston. And, hot damn, this is one funky album! This is the fourth "solo" album from Baltimore jazz guitarist Levy, with a brass-heavy backing band that is sure to have some names many of you are familiar with, such as a certain Tony Levin on bass and Steve Gadd on drums. Hit. Play. Now.

O’Donel Levy – Simba (1974, US)

Our next spotlight is on number 303 on The List, submitted by weirdofhermiston.

Well hot damn, this is one funky album!

This is the fourth solo album from Baltimore jazz guitarist Levy, his fourth on Sonny Lester’s Groove Merchant album, third to be arranged by Manny Albam, and first to contain solely Levy’s own (or co-written) compositions.

What the stoic album cover doesn’t tell you is that contained within is a Levy-led brass-heavy band with members some of you may be familiar with, particularly in the rhythm section: Eddie Daniels on flute, piccolo, and baritone saxophone; Jon Faddis and Ernie Royal on trumpet; Burt Collins and Lew Soloff on both flugelhorn and trumpet; Cecil Bridgewater and Alan Rubin on flugelhorn; Bill Watrous on trombone; Warren Bernhardt on electric piano; Tony Levin – yes, the Tony Levin – on bass; and, *drum roll please* Steve Gadd on drums.

Have you hit play yet?!

Happy listening, all!

The cover art is mostly a close-up photo of some architectural detail (perhaps in a wood door?) that has a carving of a lion head inset inside a round cut-out. The sun (off-camera) is shining on the carving so that half of it is in shadow. A dark red band is above the photo along the top edge, with the album name in large white/cream font on the left and the artist name in smaller font on the right, with "ARRANGED BY MANNY ALBUM" underneath in even smaller font.
