    Sorry for the weird framing on the intro. Had the wrong camera on and had to crop weird. 🤪

    This is from the suite of music written (all parts) and arranged (with input from Jules Buckley) called SYLVA. For me the best way to experience this suite is in its entirety in one sitting as it is all connected. The Clearing is the conclusion. Someplace Michael League wrote about the significance of each part, but I don’t remember where. League is simply a musical genius.

    I listen to the entirety of the Sylva album at least weekly. So beautiful and satisfying to listen to. In this listen I noticed the incredible use of dynamics. I swear sometimes it sounds like someone literally turning down a volume knob, it's just so smooth!

    Their headphones all have a personalized live mix which they can control.its simply about levels and being able to choose what they hear, and how loud each instrument is. No clicks or backing tracks. They play live always.

    Hey Jeff. Atchafalaya is a Native American word most commonly associated with Cajun and Creole culture and food. I know it's also the name of a river. Louisiana... which explains the tempo and feel of the song. Kinda "second line-ish" don't you think?
    Also, like everything Snarky Puppy does, this is a cool song from a cool album. Thanks again!

    • @randysimon7363
      @randysimon7363 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      In this case, Atchafalaya refers to the wetlands in Louisiana. The Sylva suite is a musical tribute to a series of forest landscapes and images.

    The Metropole Orkest is the best orchestra in the Netherlands and although politicians managed to get rid of most orchestras in the Netherlands the Metropole Orkest is still going strong. As an assistant sound engineer I know the orchestra from the 70s and 80s - of course the old guys are all replaced by new people, but they only hire the best. Of course you know All Night Long with Jacob Collier, Take Six and the Metropole Orkest.

    Ok, this a piece that needs at three listenings to make a rational comment for this layman. Must say Metropole Orkest first that they are an incredible large ensembly who have love what they do. Snarky's stuff, again a three time listen to make sense of the sheer cohesiveness and, not to mention, the transitions between songs.kinda like the Lousiana style on "Atchafalaya" (yeah, writing as I am listening).

    You should checkout some of Mark Lettieri's solo work, and I know you would like anything from either of his two "Deep Sessions" albums. He calls them The Deep Sessions because he plays the baritone guitar on both albums and they are fantastic.

    Snarky Puppy, in my humble opinion, is the BEST freakin' band in the world!!!! These people are just phenomenal. And, Jeff, I hardly understand how it is that, when that sax was playing his solo, I heard something different about. Couldn't identify it. Couldn't understand what was going on with his sound. But when you called it out... all of a sudden I could hear everything with a clarity that wasn't there before. Stuff like that AMAZES me!!!!! So, thank you for pointing that out. What's the name of this album?
