  Smell, like sound, permeates a space. But smell is physically inculcated onto and into the substances it reaches, where sound simply bounces off. Imagine experiencing music as a smell, allowing the sound to stay with you. Featuring bass clarinet. https://jazzaria.bandcamp.com/album/smell-the-music #musodon #music #jazz #funk #ccmusic #clarinet #bass #improvisation

  Precious things are often hidden. We choose to protect what we treasure by shielding it from prying eyes, and more. To a point, this is rational - but to a broader point, it's inevitably best to share what we have.

  When one considers, what is one doing? Meditative effort is effort nonetheless, though how meditative it is is debatable. Inference informs that most forms of energy are neither fully at rest nor in motion. Featuring soprano saxophone and reverb. https://jazzaria.bandcamp.com/album/semi-latent-energy #musodon #jazz #sax #music #improvisation #unaccompanied #solo #reverb

  You can go somewhere, come back - and not fully return. It is not a place you are attached to, but an idea - an experience, a feeling, a mind. Featuring piano. https://jazzaria.bandcamp.com/album/partial-egress #musodon #ccmusic #piano #jazz #improvisation #free #wandering

  "Sheet music" or "play by ear" is a false dichotomy. When literacy began, nobody went around stopping everyone from talking to each other. As with language, music benefits from both.

  It asks a little of us here - it asks of us a certain height. We must choose. Featuring Eb clarinet. https://jazzaria.bandcamp.com/album/certain-height #music #improvisation #disquietjunto #disquiet0746 #clarinet #unaccompanied #solo #ccmusic #musodon

  It's easy to unfocus - it only takes a moment. That moment can stretch and blur and become something else. Yet there's more to all this than just being along for the ride. The capacity to experience is an unparalleled wealth. Featuring piano. https://jazzaria.bandcamp.com/album/the-time-we-have #piano #improvisation #ccmusic #musodon #music

  Breaking in isn't always about burglary - it can also refer to the process of getting a new thing settled. Fresh, crisp - but not yet pliable. It takes use and time for many materials to reach their optimal point. Featuring clarinet. https://jazzaria.bandcamp.com/album/breaking-in #clarinet #improvisation #ccmusic #musodon #music #unaccompanied #jazz #avantgarde

  Entwined, betwixt and twisted - beneath a silken sheet. A before and an after, with a coupling on the beat. Fertility is but assured, as opposites will meet. This is a fecund evening, where creation is complete.

  How does lightning reach the ground? Inexorably and without repetition, it follows a critical path. Where resistance is least, it descends - and consumes. Featuring orchestral strings and brass, percussion, detuned piano, electric guitar, drum kit, organ, alto flute, boys' choir, synth, and effects. https://jazzaria.bandcamp.com/album/critical-path #music #musodon #ccmusic #orchestral #epic #disquietjunto #disquiet0750 #strings #brass #choir #flute #organ #rock

  In the embrace of the unreal real, we are often overwhelmed. We chase loose notions, seeking candor but finding confusion. It is only through directness that we can discover our intention - act simply, and simply act.

  I release my music freely, as you likely know - and I also value privacy. So in past, I set $0 and no email required on Bandcamp. For a few months now, I've rapidly hit my 200 free download limit on the site, often over the course of a few days. I'd like to think it's a hidden legion of fans - but admit that, in the current climate, the more likely explanation is bots ("agents") of some fashion. I'm skeptical these agents will observe the terms...

  "Stay well, stay kind to each other, do unto them as you would have them do unto you, be a good person, and enjoy music. This is the story of life. Enjoy music, and be a good person - be a good person to other people, and enjoy music. Then you've got it all." - Sonny Rollins Featuring jazz trio of organ, drum kit, and clarinet. https://jazzaria.bandcamp.com/album/st-rollins #jazz #music #musodon #ccmusic #improvisation #sonnyrollins #clarinet #organ #swing

  Being well-used does not necessarily entail being used up. Many items require a period of breaking in - resulting in a resilient litheness that allows for optimal performance.

  Breaks expose facets - facets offer perspectives. Such variety is less transparent, but it rewards amply. Yet it also carries risk - the danger of a a breach too far, and an edge too sharp.

  Study, practice, preparation, meditation - lofty ideals and worthy goals. Yet in the moment, all we really want is to scream through a tube.

  One of the main points of making music is to attempt things you can't quite do.
