Available as a flac download at his site. I found Giveton Gelin through a review posted by Nate Chinen. The influence of Roy Hargrove is undeniable. Toss him $9.00 and enjoy!

New EP from Aoife O'Donovan out this week, Bullfrogs Croon. The main suite of three songs are based on a poem that she was commissioned to translate into song.

Sorry if this question has been addressed but I have not been an owner for all that long. Is there a software/product path for a web or mobile interface for the Aurender family of units? Will it always be iOS tablet? Thanks.

With Ellis Marsalis passing this week, I went back to listen to the 1996 duet with his son Branford, Loved Ones. A collection of songs with women's names in the titles. This album really stands the test of time and is just as enjoyable today.

I am all in on music during these times. I am an Aurender user so I don't have Roon. I do enjoy having my laptop handy while listening to do Roon like research on artists. I recently found Chris Dingman via Sasha Berliner who is a peer of hers. Just glancing at Chris's recordings it became a no brainer for me to buy his stuff (his albums feature Linda May Han Oh, Ambrose Akinmusire, Fabian Almazan, and Justin Brown. I love all of them). Just take some time to see who your favorite musicians are either listening to, or performing with. Pull that thread and explore. With a lot of listening time potentially on our hands, it's a great time to do this.

I just discovered vibraphone player Chris Dingman. You can get his entire catalogue on Bandcamp. https://chrisdingman.bandcamp.com/ All three of his albums are very good. Waking Dreams features a really solid line up with familiar names Ambrose Akinmusire – trumpet, Loren Stillman – saxophones, Fabian Almazan – piano, Joe Sanders – bass, Justin Brown – drums, Chris Dingman – vibraphone. The Subliminal and Sublime brings in Linda May Han Oh on bass. The most recent album is Embrace. Give them a quick stream and if you like what you hear, all three are a no brainer to pick up.

I need to keep chipping away at this podcast. I actually skipped over the BK as they are not fully my cup of tea. Will add it to the queue on your recommendation. Some really good discussions here.

Article: Audiophile Style State of the Union

Thank you very much for this addition. Honestly, the bickering really made step back for a while. I am here for the music. The sweet, sweet music. The gear is only a means to that end. When the opinions and facts start flying, I think all would be best served by just....maybe go listen to some music. -
Indeed, awards are very subjective and not the end all measure. I kind of always took the the "continuum" album art to either be a visual to link that title to a "continuous" circle, or ouroboros maybe. Cheers!
