Chocolate Grinder Mix 08


"Michelle Obama Playlist No. 1"

[April 2009]

(MP3 DOWNLOAD) - (PODCAST)

I’ve been watching Ken Burns’ Jazz documentary miniseries lately. Through all the talking head hyperbole, the earliest incarnations of the music — "minstrel music" and ragtime — expose steady rhythm and heavy syncopation as the broader genre’s first massive innovation. A lot of people have trouble believing that jazz and swing were once America’s form of popular music, but as the youth’s first real exposure to driving rhythm, it’s no wonder. Since then, harmony has become increasingly homogenized —losing its regional associations — while rhythm has continued to be boiled down to basic elements. Popular music is still very much about the "beat." I put together this mix with that simple truth in mind.
