III. Oil & Water Don't Mix

Featuring the music of Gustavo Cortiñas
Duration: 7:00

Chicago-based drummer and composer Gustavo Cortiñas takes on the climate crisis on his forthcoming album, The Crisis Knows No Border. Movement III, "Oil & Water Don't Mix" features the drummer alongside Mark Feldman, Jon Irabagon, & Dave Miller.

Our economy and society are heavily reliant on fossil fuels, yet our existence hinges on vital natural resources like water. This piece delves into contrasting liquid textures, rubato melodic counterpoints, and the interplay of dry and wet sounds to depict the conflict between these essential needs. It highlights how our short-term economic desires often overshadow sustainability, leading us to compromise our future by depleting water and resources in pursuit of economic growth.

"The music of this album is inspired by global warming and its far-reaching socio-political implications, which transcend borders and manifest in tragic humanitarian crises such as armed conflicts, poverty, famine, climate disasters, and immigration. While my previous projects delved into the history of colonialism and immigration, I now aim to confront the existential threat posed to our civilization by addressing this pressing issue, and the repercussions it has on our society and our humanity," shared Cortiñas. "My hope is to send a message of unity and empathy in these trying times, through music that makes the crisis and its urgency palpable, and a message that humbles us and finds our destinies intertwined in this world and on the path forward."

Dig What I Say

Featuring the music of Tony Adamo
Duration: 3:32

Deep Latin-funk percussion, wailing tenor, and a peppering B-3 launch the single Dig What I Say before Tony Adamo enters with what he calls is “the new jazz vibe.” Adamo, a true rhapsode (no pun intended), spews his classic hipster sing-speak over the driving bed and propels us into a spectacular envisioned jazz space. Dropping names and brilliantly characterizing jazz greats now and past – Miles, “the boxer,” for example, Adamo knows and values all these greats. One can hear that in the timbre of his voice and in his uniquely inventive speak-stylings.

Adamo’s preaching, best described as sing-speak (as opposed to pure rap) has great substance. It’s historical heroin, as there’s mention and pungent reflection as the names are popped without corn. He’s a jazz matador swirling his verbal cape as the groove-beast bursts by. Tenor man, Gary Steinberg is a perfect partner for Adamo and this environment. Laying down solid soul, he’s got a virile edge and an edgy sound that’s deep cut with funk. The rhythm bed with Tim Campbell’s B-3 and programmed drums is muscular and holds nothing back, but definitely holds court.

Jazz has a long history of scatting and its counterpart, vocalise, where words are applied to well-known solos. Ella Fitgerald, Mel Torme, Eddie Jefferson, Jon Hendricks, and Giacomo Gates are some in that pantheon. However, Adamo’s sing-speak technique is unique verbiage as he’s a griot, a ferocious jazz story-spinner both simultaneously hot and very cool, as you will hear.

Dig What I Say – and for that matter, all of Adamo’s efforts in his voluminous bag of goodies are an enjoyable and a very unique experience. You dig?
