The Current State of Music Season 3 Ep 1 - Sarathy Korwar

05/09/23 • 74 min

Episode 1 in the third series of The Currennt State of Music.

Its great to be having these conversations again, after an extended break (yeah covid and all that) and I'm so pleased to kick things off with someone whose music I have been enchanted with for years.

I picked up Day To Day in If Music after it was recommended by Jean Claude, also noticing it was on Ninja Tune and then grabbed My East Is Your West a couple of years later. It was this album that really blew my mind, the energy of the performance, the atmosphere iterally jumping off the record. Its not often a live album can capture the energy in the room, but everything about this album is glorious.

Fast forward a little and the release of More Arriving saw a slight change of direction, increased conciousness, a harder sound and I saw himm and his band at a small gig in Brighton and was blown away.

He was kind enough to provide something for a radio show I produced for International Jazz Day in 21 called Jazz For People That Think They Don't Like Jazz on.soundcloud.com/U8cQy talking about what got him into jazz, and from that I knew he'd make a great guest on this podcast.

The Current State of Music Season 3 Ep 2 - Matt Ingram

Episode 2 of the new series, this week with Matt Ingram.

I'm guessing you haven't heard of Matt, but you'll almost certainly have heard some of the music he has been involved in, whether its drumming, production or writing, he has worked with some major artists and made some brilliant music.

More than that though, it was Matts energy he brought to a session in Eastbourne where we met last year that made me want to sit down and chat with him, he is really engaged, present and brings an amazing energy, even to what was quite a long day.

As you'll hear, Matts story is one of persuing his dream with dogged determination, getting into uncomfortable spaces and working hard until they become more comfortable, which I find so inspiring.

I hope you enjoy this chat as much as I did...
