DJ Logic and Jason Miles - Global Noize
Shanachie (4/29/08)
Jazz fusion / World (Middle Eastern / Spanish / African) / Jam
Global Noize is both the name of this album and the musical project surrounding it, something that turntablist/producer DJ Logic (né Jason Kibler) producer Jason Miles (who's worked with artists including Miles Davis and Luther Vandross) have been working on for a while, as they finally see their artistic vision come to fruition with a star-studded debut album. And seeing as you've got two guys, one who earned his chops under the aforementioned Davis, and the other who's collaborated with The Grateful Dead's Bob Weir and Medeski Martin & Wood, this is bound to be an adventure in mind-expansive world tunes.
"When I hear music I love I want to be involved with it," Jason Miles has told reporters. "It would be boring for me to stay in one place musically so I love to explore different music. I know Miles Davis felt that way and I'm just trying to keep the grooves hot, the melodies great and collaborate with the best artists I know. Hopefully Logic and I will be bringing Global Noize to the world and show people our musical vision."
