There is no pause given to greatness, ████ ████ and legends can vanish amidst the churn of the ████ ████ hit parade. It is no minor miracle, then, that ████ ████ in the face of a deadly pandemic and faltering ████ ████ supply chain, Jazz Is Dead has returned with ████ ████ another offering of top-shelf recordings, ████ ████ paying tribute to past legends and new school ████ ████ torchbearers alike. Whether youÆve known the ████ ████ names of Jazz Is Dead Series 2Æs featured ████ ████ guests, or are just meeting them for the first ████ ████ time, prepare to be blown away. ████ ████ For Adrian Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad, ████ ████ collaborating with music icons and personal ████ ████ heroes is a dream come true. As Younge notes, ████ ████ ôA lot of the luminaries have been forgotten, ████ ████ and we want to get people excited again. For ████ ████ me, there is nothing more rewarding than that.ö ████ ████ However, completing such a monumental task ████ ████ while facing the ongoing unprecedented ████ ████ challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic meant ████ ████ taking careful steps to ensure each artistÆs ████ ████ safety and contending with obstacles brought by ████ ████ a global supply chain slowdown, all while ████ ████ keeping the initial vision for the label and ████ ████ production house intact. ôDue to the pandemic, ████ ████ we werenÆt able to have live eventsö, says ████ ████ Muhammad. ôWe launched the label during the ████ ████ pandemic, unsure how we would be able to ████ ████ promote the music when the world was in chaos ████ ████ and turmoil, and suffering such loss. We ████ ████ weren't even sure if the music mattered. But ████ ████ what we discovered was these albums helped ease ████ ████ some of the adversities and difficulties. ████ ████ There's no greater prize than your music having ████ ████ a positive impact on a person.ö ████ ████ With Jazz Is Dead Series 2, Younge and Muhammad ████ ████ have once again, together with a roster of ████ ████ world-renowned legends, crate digger patron ████ ████ saints, and an exciting vanguard of young ████ ████ talent, have delivered another unimpeachable ████ ████ collection of fresh and captivating recordings ████ ████ inspired by JazzÆs past, present, and future. ████ ████ There are names that some may already be ████ ████ familiar with, such as Lonnie Liston Smith, ████ ████ Jean Carne, and Tony Allen, and those less so, ████ ████ like Henry Franklin, Phil Ranelin, Wendell ████ ████ Harrison, Garrett Saracho, & Katalyst. What ████ ████ unites each new collaborator is their unbent ████ ████ dedication to remaining original, preserving ████ ████ their creativity and sharing it with the ████ ████ world.. ████ ████ Few can claim to have shaped Jazz-Funk to the ████ ████ extent that Lonnie Liston Smith has. ôTo have ████ ████ Lonnie Liston Smith in the studio was an ████ ████ immense honor. Once he stepped in and saw the ████ ████ analog equipment, he became young again, and ████ ████ took us all to space,ö says Younge. Known for ████ ████ her incredible vocal acrobatics that span from ████ ████ Spiritual Jazz to Disco and R&B, Jean Carne ████ ████ dazzled those in attendance for her session. As ████ ████ Muhammad puts it, ôJean Carne walked through ████ ████ the door, and her grace and positive spirit ████ ████ filled more than a room. It was a playland, ████ ████ there were no challenges.ö As the drummer for ████ ████ Fela KutiÆs Africa 70, legendary drummer Tony ████ ████ Allen brought Afrobeat to the world, and ████ ████ reinvented the possibilities of rhythm. ôItÆs ████ ████ bittersweetö, says Younge. ôWe just feel very ████ ████ fortunate that weÆre given the privilege to add ████ ████ to his indelible legacy. To be able to record ████ ████ with him in the studio, on my drumset...I feel ████ ████ like it should be in a museum.ö ████ ████ Best known to curious ears for his work on the ████ ████ trailblazing independent Black Jazz label, ████ ████ Henry ôThe Skipperö Franklin reconfigured the ████ ████ bass into the emotive focal point of some of ████ ████ the labelÆs most well-regarded releases. ôHe ████ ████ was so cool about everything that was ████ ████ happening, one slide on that bass and the whole ████ ████ universe shiftedö, recalls Muhammad. ████ ████ ô(FranklinÆs former collaborator) Hugh Masekela ████ ████ had just passed. ItÆs hard to highlight how ████ ████ something so subtle gets into the music, but it ████ ████ does.ö ôWorking with Henry was like a warm ████ ████ Spring dayö, adds Younge. As founders of the ████ ████ legendary Tribe Records, Phil Ranelin and ████ ████ Wendell Harrison led a Jazz underground ████ ████ renaissance in Detroit, forming a model for ████ ████ creative independence that is still followed ████ ████ today. ôIt was great working with Phil and ████ ████ Wendell, they definitely set the blueprintö, ████ ████ says Muhammad. Virtually forgotten after the ████ ████ botched release of his head-spinning debut ████ ████ album, Garrett Saracho returned to the studio ████ ████ after a decades-long hiatus with unflappable ████ ████ poise. ôThe LA Latin sound, built on Black and ████ ████ Brown unity, deeply resonates with meö, says ████ ████ Younge. And although Jazz insiders around Los ████ ████ Angeles may have already known for some time, ████ ████ Katalyst is bridging the timeless sounds of ████ ████ past generations forward for a new audience. ████ ████ ôIt is important for us to include the younger ████ ████ generationö, says Muhammad. ôWe feel that they ████ ████ are legends in the making.ö ████ ████ For both Younge and Muhammad, preserving and ████ ████ sharing these legacies remains at the core of ████ ████ their mission. ôWe do this work with reverence, ████ ████ for the people who came before us, thatÆs our ████ ████ intent,ö says Muhammad. In an era of streaming ████ ████ and rapid devaluation of music, and with the ████ ████ lingering uncertainty of running a new ████ ████ independent label in the time of COVID, Jazz Is ████ ████ Dead continues with Series 2. ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ████ ▄▀▀███▓▄ ▄▓███▀▀▄ ████ ████ ■ ███▓█ .···.
