Creating this new thread (I hope with permission) to sort of enliven the board's posting frequency around a very special, quite celestial topic:

So, what are you guys listening to lately?
Let me start off with one of my all-time favorite internet radio stations:

RADIO PARADISE

Hi thisbody, presently I'm more into conversational podcasts, but I'll have to tune into Radio Paradise, its name is just too appealing!

I was amused by their description: Chosen by real humans! Not astral beings then!

streams highly curated, eclectic mixes of music -- chosen by real humans --

[Jitendra Hydonus]

Yea your right . I’ll respond there also.


I guess, you really meant to be answering this post of mine in another thread?

Hola, thisbody

I usually post what I'm listening to in the music thread, so there are different topics all over the place. In the spirit of humoring your topic, and hopefully keeping things more organized- here's what I thought about earlier today.

Before I left to see the film Sound of Freedom my Mom commented out in the driveway that she saw a butterfly and it made her happy. I paused and felt a type of happiness myself when I saw a dragonfly hovering just above her car.

Suddenly I thought about your thread and thought this would be the song to share-

Hope everyone enjoys 



PS,

It's nice to see you posting!

It's 1111 now. Cheers guys. = )

Nice song, sexy girl! =)

thisbody,

Here's one of my new favorites

This girl is amazing and really does something to my heart and soul music hasn't been able to do in a long time... I have romantic ideas of a beautiful mexican wife and being in love. She nourishes those feelings.

Poetic. Great vocals, beautiful lyrics... Amazing soul feelings. <3

Conscious hip hop with uplifting vibrations...

Chosen by real humans in this context is aiming to say - We're not using any AI, nor any algorythms to create our music mixes - which is in stark contrast to most of all big music streaming platforms on the internet today.

Ah, yes, I was guessing so but I was just surprised by the fact that today it's a sign of distinction, like, hand-picked fruit, or hand-sewn dresses and so on, I would have never thought about it

For a long time, I've been a huge fan of the great jazz pianist Mccoy Tyner, from whom my web moniker, mccoy, has been derived. I collected his albums, listened to his music, even attempted to imitate his style which is just about impossible, given his monster virtuosism.

You guys made me listen again to one of the best youtube videos, a solo concert in Hamburg, where he played John Coltrane's composition giant steps, harmonic jumps in major thirds, devised by this genius of modern music. Coltrane also read the autobiography of a Yogi and was a big fan of Yogananda's book, being inspired by the footnote on Myian Tansen and his nightly raga played by day, which made the imperial palace plunge into darkness. Coltrane had a fixation on this, obsession which lasted until his premature death.

Presently, I'm mainly listening to what my son listens to. He likes pop music and Latin music, so I've kind of learnt the latest hits of this genre. I bought a large screen TV and home theater loudspeakers just to let him enjoy the music. Among the hits, this is one I particularly enjoyed, the music is nice, the video is very good, with wolves, panthers and sharks, no excess nudity and no profane lyrics like in many rap singers'. I think it's the latest from KarolG

[mccoy]

Mulgrew Miller, recently deceased, has been probably the best jazz pianist among the not so elderly ones. He was an SRF member, inspired by Yogananda and his book.
This is one of the best performances found on youtube, with a superlative solo intro followed by a superb ensemble interpretation of this Brazilian bossanova song.
Presently, I believe he is the best jazz pianist ever.

This is a great speech, but I don't think there's anything wrong with national barriers. No borders is a hotspot for drug and human trafficking:

[Jitendra Hydonus]

Yea I really don’t see what people see in those other places… I really like the spiritual influence and interests in this country. Besides the music background isn’t so ominous.
