Podcast #20: 09.05.11 Nik Weston (Mukatsuku)
As we prepare for this Sunday’s Jazz Meet Live event at The Shoreditch, we present to you another 50 minute selection of killer jazz flavours from Jazz Meet resident (and Mukatsuku Records boss) Nik Weston. Currently away touring Japan, he left us this mix to post up in his absence just before boarding his plane to the Land of the Rising Sun. So while he may not be playing on Sunday, we hope this’ll tide you over till he makes his return next week.
He kick things off this time around with ‘Love Is On The Way’ by the Bruce Cameron Jazz Ensemble, a superb vocal jazz fusion masterpiece with an absolutely epic intro… just hold tight for the drop! Next up, we slip into some Japanese jazz from the original master and his oh so funky jazz band, Fumio Itabashi and a little Pat Britt. The piano driven jazz of the Kazuo Yashihiro Trio and some soundtrack bizness from Michel Magne soon follow, before a late date from Milt Jackson and Monty Alexander, a Donald Byrd jazz funk classic and a stunning piano composition from Joe Sample take us home.
We hope you enjoy the listen, and remember if you want to cop the download in our weekly newsletter, just hit the subscribe button at the top of this page. If you are around this Sunday, things kick off at 2pm as usual, with Rob Coley and new monthly residents Jarred Rice and Sid Ford on the decks and live sets from The Jazz Meet house band lead by Jake Telford on sax and Jessica Lauren on keys. We also welcome back into the fold our drummer Francesco Mendolia, who has just finished a stint playing with Incognito. It should be a hot one!
