BLUTET Album ...on the horizon.

I just wanted to take a moment and let everyone know that the BLUTET, my group is finishing up their debut album. I'm working on the album and art work NOW, soo....be on the look out. We will probably release the album digitally first and then a physical copy for touring. We are really excited and hope that you enjoy our work.

POLITICAL HUMOR... LOL

Be Encouraged

ARTIST, never let your message/story be limited or tainted the wants of your audience. Your job is to share your views and story, and to make it relatable to the audience. Dig deep, and think hard about the message in your heart. Remember that you can be serious, comedic, angry, hateful, lustful, loving, fearful, loathing, humble, compassionate, thoughtful, contemplative, etc. The full range of emotions, a variety of story lines, etc. Never ever feel limited or that you have to bow down to a certain group or idea. The only one you owe something too...is God, for sharing the spark of creativity, and the message of #LOVE, that regardless of your view on it, everyone needs or wants. Be encouraged, and never settle!

BLUTET record this week...

Today's BLUTET rehearsal w/ John Toney, Derrick Harvin, Bryan Mays, Derrick Harris, Gabe Carson, Abel Avalos & Derek Engstrom was #AWESOME

You're Not Crazy, You're Creative

You're not crazy, you're just creative...I wished more people knew that. Channeling this force, God given, can be challenging at times. If we only knew that the thing was that bothering us most...was the indescribable thing that made us perfectly unique. #CREATIVITY

I AM A MAN...

"In The Spirit of the Music"

"In The Spirit of the Music"  

by 

Sheel/Delisfort

I believe that today's music is and has become highly over academic, through the process of systematically making music education something that can be quantified(Business) even though it is a qualitative process. Music education is a beautiful thing, and I'm glad to be part of the process of educating musicians and the massive amounts of listeners alike, BUT... as an artist I've noticed an interesting yet disturbing trend in music lately. This trend I speak of, is focusing more attention on the business part of the art form and less on the actual aesthetic of it. Music is an art in which the musician is sharing a story, a narrative with the listener. I've spoken with at least 30 different musicians that have all agreed that there is a "spirit" to the music that has to be dealt with in a sensitive manner in order to truly convey that message/narrative. Many of you might laugh, or be totally confused by that topic of "spirit" when speaking about music. This spirit I speak of is not a specter or a spook, a ghost nor a whiff of spectral gas flowing down the hall way. What we speak of is the intent of the music, and that there is an unquestionable connection between the intent, the message, the spirit, and the over all organic nature of the music. This applies to any and every genre of music as well as the quality, good and bad, of the art form, music.

After a recent phone conversation, with my great friend Willerm Delisfort(NYC -Pianist), about a related topic, we decided to work together to iron out the specifics about this interesting topic and convey them to you the reader with more specificity in this article. I really believe that the main impetus for writing this article was to communicate to all the musicians out there, that music is more than promotion, composing, arranging, producing, booking, ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, B.S., M.M., & DMA music degrees. Music has been around since the beginning of humanity, and definitively... the beginning of society. It has been the poly rhythmic talking drums of the African continent, the solemn organ like dirge of the funeral in Europe, the singing strings of the Asiatic ballad, the fanfare, booming bass drum as well as the crashing cymbals of the Janissary/war bands. These are just a few of the messages conveyed by music of the millienia. However, there is a message... deep yet simple

THE SPIRIT

THE INTENT

INTERPRETING

YOUR VOICE

THE CONNECTION TO THE LISTENER

THE CONNECTION TO THE GREAT

#THINK

Improvisation is the art of the moment, and God is the God of right now...dazzling similarities. Both require stark honesty, the need to bare your soul, and TRUST that defies conventional thinking and wisdom. The payoffs for those things are better than you can ever expect. Thank you God.
