And the big news is that I will be releasing four albums in the next twelve months! And I’ve set up a subscription service on @bandcamp so that you can support my music, and make sure you get all of my new releases. The albums I’ll be releasing are “Beatology” in October 2016, “Slow Waves” in November 2016, “Instrumental Palm Wine Music” by Who Is John Smith in February 2017, and the new album by James_ Yas in March 2017. The James_Yas album is a collaboration between myself and Parisian slam poet/Rapper Yas. She and I previously worked together on the Mean Deep track “Goodabbad (les écolos)” and the DJ Baba James track “Abbad Superstar.” For 36 dollars—3 bucks a month—you’ll get 41 tracks over the next twelve months. You’ll get, on average, at least, 3 tracks per month. You’ll be able to stream and/or download the tracks via the Bandcamp site and Bandcamp mobile app. You’ll get the tracks before anyone else, and you’ll get tracks from my new albums before the albums are up on Bandcamp and also other sites such as iTunes, Spotify, etc. Immediately with your purchase of a subscription, you’ll get my Man With a Movie Camera album, the Reidemeister Moves single, and the next two tracks on “Beatology.” If you already have the Man With a Movie Camera album, I’ll be happy to get you a different release of your choice from my back catalog.

Listen to my new fountain mix on my Mixcloud page. It's a good mix for playing in the fountain or chilling in the shade. Six exclusive instrumental mixes & edits in the mix... @seattlecenter #InternationalFountain #music #djmixes #jameswhetzel #mixcloud #sunshine #Seattle #SeattleCenter #summer
Because we all needed more holiday music we could bob our heads to, and because we sometimes get tired of the words of the songs, and because there really was far far too little sarod in Christmas, Hanukkah, and Solstice music. Far far too little sarod... ;)
BTW: this album is really good, and not cheesy, but don't just take my word for it. Listen to it, and consider these words as well:
"This could easily have been a train wreck: Traditional carols played on Indian classical instruments. But the deep spirituality inherent in the sarod (to Western ears at least) combines magically with the familiar melodies to put a remarkably endearing spin on well-trod music." Randy Lewis, LA Times. "Dishy with sarod, accordion, mandolin, bendir, darbouka and tabla, Sarod & Beats doles out holiday tunes through the prism of a South Asian sensibility. Mr. Whetzel conjures up elegance on the sarod and all without a cheesy version in sight." TJ Nelson, World Music Central.
"Take a song like “We Three Kings.” We’ve all heard the original, written to recall the Middle Eastern roots of Christmas. As a track by James Whetzel, it sounds more like you imagine it was supposed to sound. This Seattle sarod player and International Fountain DJ makes holiday music feel both ancient and fresh.” Mohini Patel Glanz, Mango Power Girl.
"These carols are not the same carols you were forced to sing at school. Holiday: Sarod & Beats is a great reinvention of classic seasonal songs with a hint of the East. Pack it away with the decorations and bring out year after year." Dee Kay, Sari-Clad Speakers.
And regarding track number 4--The Dreidel Sarod: "Strangest and possibly best ever version of Dreidel Dreidel ever." Rusty Hodge, Founder and General Manager, Soma FM
PS I warned you I'd be sharing my Holiday music with you...
Getting Ready to Say Walla Walla, Walla Walla, Walla Walla...
This is what it looks like I'm getting ready to say the word "Walla Walla" speedily and repeatedly. Why would I do that? I'm making a video for this catchy little ditty http://jameswhetzel.bandcamp.com/track/washington-state
Fingers crossed, the video will be completed by the end of August...

JamesWhetzel - Beat and the Pulse (Austra cover)
Interesting version... sitar, sarod, accordion, bass, his trademark acoustic drums and darbouka are featured in this mix.
