Nate Harasim ]|[ RUSH – [TRIPPIN & RHYTHM, 2011]

Not one to be quiet about making an entrance, producer/keyboardist Nate Harasim’s Trippin N’ Rhythm label debut, is one sure to place him firmly in the new class and crop of emerging talent, highlighted by a cameo vocal performance from young Maxine Hardcastle daughter of mega-hit maker Paul Hardcastle.

With Harasim’s recent 30 minute performance showcase on Fox news Detroit, writing and producing the theme song for the 2010 American Smooth Jazz Awards and coming off an 8 week run at #1 on the National radio charts with ‘Fun In The Sun,’ a track he produced for guitarist Steve Oliver, the media and radio in unison, have taken notice of his burgeoning talent. Rush highlights the many sides of a young man with a keen ear, serious chops, strong pop sensibilities and displays his break out of the box mentality and his willingness to the push the envelope.

With assists from label mates Cindy Bradley and Darren Rahn and a payback from Steve Oliver, Rush is a soulful, fresh and funky ride through 11 sparkling sides, yet one that as the title suggests, you won’t want to rush through but take your time to savor the journey.

Wayne Wallace Latin Jazz Quintet - TO HEAR FROM THERE

Wayne Wallace Latin Jazz Quintet -][- TO HEAR FROM THERE – [Patois Records, 2010]

The moment of creation can induce trance and give glimpses of the previously unseen. One can feel the echoes of the ancestors, learn to hear the silence between the words and notes so we can embrace the rhythm of the unknown in life. Improvisation is a pathway in the transformation of abstract thought to reality via the creative process. In even the smallest aspects of the day to day, it constantly reminds of us of where we have been and who we are.

Music, dance and myth give comfort to the vital parts of the artistic being and can take us beyond paradox to communing with the divine. To Hear From There is a musical celebration of the freedom that improvisation allows us in the modern cultural landscape. The songs and performances draw deeply from the history of the musical nexus of Africa and the Americas with an ear to the potential the future holds. It is an honor to share our joy, creativity and enthusiasm with you. We hope the music inspires your heart and moves your soul to express it’s artistic spirit. ¡Bienvenida! –Amazon.com
