Purpleskyyys & Musik+ology 101

This blog is dedicated to Purpleskyyys & Musik+ology 101.

So as a member of Deeper Than Atlantis; I was able to be exposed to many people that has the same level (if not more) of love for music as me :) I met Azure Lee; which is the host of the radio show through a posting she made in the group. I will be uploading her radio shows so everyone can tune in and enjoy the love for music she has and tune in it with your love for music. Enjoy!!!!

{Here is a little bit more about the show}

Azure Lee created this radio show to simply put out music for people to hear that she loves and that she feel people will also love to hear and in some kind of way be inspired by.  She has always had a love for music (like you) and she felt that it was time for her to create a show where she could expose people to music in hopes that it may be something new that they have not heard...something old that they have not heard in years or just enjoy listening to....She see herself bridging the gap between genres and past music to present with her radio show.  She has always had a love for the oldies, but she also got love for the new underground artists out there...And with her it is not about what mainstream is putting out, its about what music touches people that they can feel...you know...

Jazz: An American Genre of the Past?

A recent study done by the Jazz Audience Initiative showed that less than 20% of Jazz Audiences are people of color, insinuating that Black people have forsaken this great genre of music that we created.
Do you think this is true?  Has this genre of music been mowed over and replaced with other genres of music by Americans?

On this show I will be interview my former professor, lecturer and conductor, Dr. Anthony Williams, about this topic. We will be discussing the history of Jazz, how it has changed throughout the years and whether the appreciaton is still there.

Freestyle Show #1: Sexy, Smooth Grooves

This show will be my first that really focuses simply on playing music. I created a random playlist of songs to play for you all that I think you all will love.

There is a touch of R&B, a hint of Soul and much more!
