HEAR HERE :: WKNON.017 "NIGHT SKIES + EVERGREEN" THE LATEST INSTALLATION OF OUR BI-WEEKLY RADIO-CAST! [See our insta-fam bio-link] ▪︎ Nor-so-suddenly realized that our every-other-week mock digi-radio show has slipped off the calendar track. . We've all been a bit distracted by stuff, things and the world around us. . Look for a new [2 hour] episode of fresh picks and legacy faves, each or every other week... We like to be agile! . The twenty tunes and tracks we feature this week include a few we have loved [post-2000] mixed in with a model majority of music from the last couple of years... with a heavy emphasis on the new-new! . We Hope You Love It As We Do!

HEAR HERE :: TAKUYA KURODA 'FLY MOON DIE SOON' - ALBUM [First Word Records - 2020] ▪︎ Trumpeter Takuya Kuroda, born in Kobe, Japan, big in New York has been playing for moons, first following in the footsteps of his brother [a Trombonist] + playing big bands, Kuroda then moved to New York to attend the New School and has played with everyone from Akoya Afrobeat to DJ Premier's BADDER band - and then some. . This album, his sixth, was recordiled in a whirlwhind set of sessions at a Brooklyn, NY studio and brings together the Hip Hop, Soul, Broken and even post-modern / post-bop groove that he's plyed to and through over the years and is a banger by any measure! ▪︎ #Jazz #NotJazz #JazzNotJazz #TakuyaKuroda #JazzTrumpet #JapaneseJazz #JazzInJapan #JazzInKobe #FirstWordRecords (at Brooklyn, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CF8-nYvguZN/?igshid=85g13s747oj6
