Phil tunes into jazz. Nice.
azz. a cunnrng mrx of blend and fusron. a blendrng of fused mrxrngs,
Jazz'y mixes. fusing fusrons. When you Jazz rt up. yOu bend the ends of
the notes and the rhythms to meet other ones. It is blending these ends together as a way of representing the truth that there rs no start to one and a beginning of another . . . style. beat. colour. I love many of the musics filed under the 1827 section. I love the way the sectrons just make trouble fer themselves . . 's'cuse me. where's the 'fusron‘ sectron’? . . 'yeah man its over there between TV themes and rndustrral folk.‘
People might feel they have categorrsed the musrc they love and then resist lookrng for rt in 'pop’. Sales must be dropping. They c0uld be a bit more Ja/xy and have sections Wrthout ends that segue the overlaps more into each other's already shared area — like eating your way around the middle e; st vra different aubergrne dishes at the National Refugee Week buffet. A Jazzy tnrxrng of blended flavours staying on and affecting the reality of the ingredients of the new flax/Ours being savoured.
Jazz can play wrth time: in advance rt goes along a standard line rn your mind. messrng arOund then meetrng you there at the end of the bar. Jazz plays wrth the tune you know from before wrth the new DNA twrsty curl arOund on the new tune in trrne now.
If you talk over musrc you can sometrmes let yOur sense be dictated by the feel of the sound and rt can gurde you to meanings that are garnered from the words that have come.
Imagine yOur brarn rs gurck enough to use these apparently too short spaces to actually rust let belrefs form in. I type thrs at Glastonbury wrth the muSICS of many stages cornrng to me all at once.
