Thanks for the add and hello :)

Greetings and thanks for accepting James! So nice to have friends with super musical compatibility!

Thanks for checking it out! Agreed, re: Atmosphere. Put the humanity in rap.

The live instrumentation on Lemons is great as well, differs greatly from the usual production on hip hop albums (loops and more loops).

Thanks for the shout out, I am digging your playlist too. I might have to check out some of these artists you got, some I've never heard off!

Thanks! same to you, yeah they're both great

:) hey there, thanks for the request ! i'll check some of your top artists as well !

Thanks for the request, you have good music taste :)

Yeah Sadistik caught me off guard. He was extremely humble and has quite the humor. I hope to catch another show of his at a bigger venue. Smooth charts by the way!

Hey, thank you for the nice feedback! I'm really proud of my "listening style" as well. I admire your music taste, too. Be healthy, James from Seattle! :]

Thanks for the add. Nice library! :)

hi, thanks. a lot of inspiration in your library, too!

Hugs to you

Thank U for the request :) interesting library ! xx

Hi James! Thanks for connecting too! And I'm a Pat Metheny fan too!!

Also, the Norwegian quintet "Farmers Market" is remarkable. They mix jazz, balkan traditions, pop, indian, and recently fusion of the 70s with (sometimes annoying amounts of) humour. I regret that I did not go and see them play with Michael B in 2003, won't get that chance again.

Thanks, much appreciated. If you need me to drop some artist names I'd be happy to do so, as I know most of them, a few would be a bit hard to dig up however...but yeah, no problem, you should give me some jazz recs...greetings and salutations and all that stuff.

of my overall tops? You should definitely check out a few of them. And I honestly listen to anything, I think that is why I have so many artists in my library haha. Pretty much love everything but modern day country music

Thanks! I agree that the mix is great! If you agree, I recommend that you listen to some of my non-jazz favourites: Elysian Fields, Marcelo Camelo... I will check out some of your frequent listens/scrobbles that I know less well. All the best at the Metheny concert! Wish he would play here (Oslo) again.

hey, thanks for an invitation. is it because our musical compatibility is Super ? :) so you have a great music taste, man!

likewise

cheers!

Hey! Sorry for the long delay, I'm from NY - but the music coming out of the Northwest is phenomenal right now!

Hey, nice playlists! Thanks for connecting. Reminds me I need to beef up my Pat Metheny collection. Peace ~I

Hi James, Thanks for connecting! The "Bert en Ernie" tracks are for my kids. It is from Sesamestreet. Grtz, Rogier

It's very hard to pick one. I've grown up hearing Pat Metheny's music and it is a part of my life. If I had to pick one, "Secret Story" is one I'd definitly talk about. I love his solo projects as well as PTG and his collaboration with Brad Mehldau. I've seen him a couple of weeks ago with Chris Potter and Antonio Sanchez in his Unity Band. It was my second Pat Metheny gig. I Loved it! It was great! :)

That's awesome man, what kind of music do you make then and how was it to be on stage with someone like that?

Hey Amigo! Thx for reaching out! We have some very similar musical tastes! My latest musical obsession is Joss Stone

greetings from Warsaw ;) i saw that you play in jazz band, cheers!

That's awesome! I know so few people who are into Lateef at all. I'm looking forward to eyeballing your musical interests and to exploring some of them. I'm kind of all over the map, myself, in some ways.

Thank you,your taste is great as well.cheers from Istanbul:))

I should check my messages more! I have to say, yes, I'm so obsessed with the music coming out of the Northwest!

Really interesting thing. Love the rap music with real instruments. In Poland we also have a lot of good rap musicians. I especially reccomend you Ortega Cartel. These guys are from Poland, but they are living in Canada: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vn4Gycwvkc Really nice sound. Unfortunately, they don't singing in english a lot

Great music man, really great. From Seattle I like also Grieves. He is a fantastic raper too. Btw: Seattle is a one of my favorite cities around the world :)

Yes. we have good agreement between the musicians. Cheers from Kiev)

Thanks for listening!
