About this Episode

When I close my eyes, whether the purpose is to settle down and relax, nap for a few or call it quits for the night and fall asleep, I like having those slow, melodic tunes by my side with the volume just right. Lullabies and ballads. It just 'does something' to you. My inquisitive nature about what that some thing is led me to do some research.

We've heard it said that music has charms to sooth a savage breast. An article I found helps make sense of that adage. The National Sleep Foundation (www.sleepfoundation.org) posted the article, "Can Music Help You Calm Down and Sleep Better?" The answer is a definite yes and they go on to explain why. Music has a positive effect, an almost enchanting effect on us biologically and that is quite relevant to this mix and its purpose.
So......with that info in mind, let's dive in.
It's time to fade to black. RELAX and ENJOY!

This one is FIYAH from the start....I just happened to truly be in one of those 'cast your cares to the wind" moods so I did just that. It translated into some some pretty energetic cuts to kickstart the podcast. Soundwise, i optimized this one in the Mixing Lab. The audio really kicks in a vehicle with that crisp, airy, open road wind in your hair feel. SO, hit the road and ENJOY! If you happen to get HAPPY FEET don't blame me for the speeding ticket!!

Life throws you curveballs but you have to stay at the plate, dig in and keep on swinging. This podcast is me connecting and sending the curveball SOARING. Techy issues with my toys along with just a busy daily schedule have kept me from putting out shows regularly but guess what?? PERSISTENCE BREAKS RESISTANCE! I'm stubborn so...here it is.
Lots of good music on here, it TRULY felt good to get this one under my belt.
The First...its special.
Certainly not the last!!
ENJOY!!

Somewhere In Alabama (Eric Essix feat. Martin Luther King Jr. RTJ Remix)

While i was looking through my catalog for songs and song titles relevant to Martin Luther King Jr., I thought about the deep south where many of his battles were fought. Of course, three key cities involved in the civil rights movement were Selma, Montgomery and Birmingham. Along with marches and non-violent protests, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered some of his most memorable speeches in these locations. When I saw Eric's title 'Somewhere In Alabama', I was curious so I listened and instantly knew this was the song that I was searching for. Soulful, emotional and raw.
Having familiarized myself with many of Martin's speeches, all that was left was to find a message that was moving, powerful and fitting. Eric's guitar work and lead in laid the foundation for Martin's delivery and as the song transitions, I carefully positioned Martin's prophetic speech.
After listening to the final mix several times, I was left with an overwhelming feeling of awe of what's been accomplished and how far we still have to go. Eric after hearing the finsihed product was moved as well.
Special thanks to Eric Essix, a Birmingham Alabam native who allowed me use of his tune.
