    Good on ya mate. Very nice mix! Could you please tell me the name of the songs at 48 mins and 59 mins? I can't quite figure it out by the tracklisting.
    Cheers, mate!

    Thanks!

    at 48 mins, it's Francois Tusques "Le Musichien".. saxophone, piano, perc... there's little bit Moshi still here and there (you know the chant from the beginning of the album) then it goes to Haki Madhubuti (flute solo)...
    then Ted Daniel's tune starts, you know the one with the vibes and trumpet..it's still on at 59 mins,but when the trumpet solos over about 1:00:30 you can start hearing cymbals from Coalitions "Marionette" and from Khan Jamal's tune "inner peace", you can hear flute from Milt Simon's Jasis album (really great album btw.!!), and those deep drums are from Lonergan/Hannibal LP (but only in the back ground).. I played a bit with the vibes from "Mfecane" tunes.. and, yeah, then it's E.W.Wainwright's "Mfecane".. but actually it's two different versions mixed together and one live version from Nimbus Collective's great double cd :) hope this info helps :)

    Thanks for your elaborate answer! Only now have I realised how much work you must have put into this. You really produced this rather than mixed it. I am not too familiar with spiritual jazz hence my question and not realising the many songs at a time. I looked up this Tusques LP, amongst others, but 180 € is a bit too much for me at the moment. ;-) Fortunately, someone posted the Flac on a different blog.

    Thanks again.

    Yeah no problem :)

    I think it's really sad that that Tusques album is so expensive these days, maybe because Gilles played it on his show??hahah! but there where times when you could get it a lot cheaper.

    I guess not that many listeners realises how much work there's done for these "mixes"? don't know? but still, it's my choice to try to do things a bit different and try to develop you know :) ..it feels great of course if someone appreciates the work I've put into these things, but that's something extra.

    ..and i don't know if it matters that much if one recognizes these songs played or not, it's all music and the most important thing is that how it makes you feel.. enjoy it, let it heal you etc.

    Just discovered your site. I'm a big fan of spiritual jazz since discovering Pharoah's "Karma" LP way back. I'll be using your track list to check out a few names I haven't yet come across.
