Peace & Blessings to ALL! I present to you a musical interpretation celebrating Black History Month. Since last year during the world spread of the pandemic we have bared witness to the marginalization and degradation of the poor, which has been amplified by the virus. Police brutality continues to operate unchecked and both Black & Brown lives continue to be murdered unarmed. The United States leads the world in human rights violations and remains to this day the highest incarceration rate of Black & Brown people in the world. This musical journey begins with spoken word artist Amanda Gorman with her incredible inauguration speech "The Hill We Climb". Listen to the soulful voices blare "Let The Sunshine In" we are incapsulated by the stories told of the Black diaspora, infused by the songs of often pain and liberation. The 2nd hour I present Black music in this body of work also known as House Music, bringing the journey to a climatic dance of freedom and spiritual insurrection.

Marvin Gaye is perhaps one of my personal favorite music artist of all times. Since I was a young boy playing my fathers record collection I was always fascinated with the sounds, tones and vocals which infused so much love, pain and conviction in his songs. In the 1970's he recorded two concept albums where he had complete creative control on the recordings. Both titles "What's Going On" & "Let's Get It On" would combine R&B, Blues and Orchestrated textures that were unlike anything ever recorded in that time. Today Marvin's music has influenced so much of what we hear, this mix was created as a tribute to display the many combinations of soundscapes and melodies he has evoked from his artistry. I began the mix with a live classic ballad "Wholy Holy"... The finale features a remix I did, creating a dubbed version of "What's Going On" which highlights the instruments and a ghostly vocal, bringing Marvin home! With so-much happening in our world today especially in the U.S., Civil unrest and a BLM Movement that has spread around the world, it's no-wonder that Marvin saw his pain of being a Black Man in America a threat . . . but a threat to a priviledged society that would still to this day demean and violate the very common human rights of an American!!! (FULL CIRCLE) Marvin Lives in Infamy!
