Born from the higher powers of creation, there is a place many artists can describe as their “zone”, “nirvana”, or what freestyle MCs call getting open. This metaphysical realm is when paint, chords, camera angles, notes, words, or medium of choice escape the artist, with little need for cognition, to simply take form from pure impulsive imagination. The guests we present tonight mold their clay from similar instinctive sites.

Tonight’s first featured guest, SF local DJ JB, described forming his sets as “on the fly”–meaning that he’ll have a rough estimate of the genres he’d like to vibe, but ultimately creates his sets in the moment. We also feature an interview with performance artists, Chris Sullivan aka Shockwave and Anthony Veneziale aka Two Touch, from the improv collective Freestyle Love Supreme. In a live pre-recorded interview (I know, the term “live pre-recorded” sounds oximoronic, but the interview was soooo off the hook when we recorded live, I had to disclaim!), breakdown their improv talents as analogous to free jazz.

To honor the free flowing spirits of our guests, Honey Knuckles and I also decided to wing-it, and ended up masterfully bringing-it; evident in the cohesion between banter and mixes which gracefully vibe almost as pure as Coltrane’s Love Supreme!…Haha, I wish! But I do give props to Honey Kunckles who not only spun two short sets so we could present the Freestyle Love Supreme interview within context of some boundary breaking artists, but mixed background for the interview impromptu…ahh that’s good skill.

Feelin the free~
