Why the Katy Perry/Flame lawsuit makes no sense
Август 2, 2019
Katy Perry just lost a $2.8 million dollar court case against Christian rapper Flame. The case hinged on the testimony of the plaintiff’s expert musicologist Todd Decker.

Testing 432 Hz Frequencies (and temperaments)
432 Hz might be how we should be tuning our instruments, but....
...most justifications for 432 require it to be in really wacky tuning systems for the numbers to make any sort of numerological sense. I actually tested some of these tuning systems to hear how they sound.
THE THREE TUNINGS I USED

Chakra Tuning

My Worst Trainwreck
Train wrecks happen on the bandstand. This is the story of a particularly nasty one at a wedding where we totally butcher a perfectly decent Elton John ballad.

Why the Ed Sheeran lawsuit makes no sense
Ed Sheeran is being sued for the similarity between Thinking Out Loud and Marvin Gaye’s Let’s Get it On. This makes absolutely no sense — yes, Thinking Out Loud uses similar chords, but you can’t own chords, and if you could, that would be making a mockery of how music has been made for centuries.
"Your manuscript is both good and original; but the part that is good is not original, and the part that is original is not good." — attributed to Mark Twain

Can you guess the interval by its emotion?
I asked my friend Ben Levin to guess what intervals matched with which emotional reaction based on the research of music cognition scientist David Huron. Can you guess along with him?

I worked for the US State Department as a Jazz Diplomat
I toured Central Asia with the 5-piece jazz rock band Aberdeen on behalf of the American State Department for three weeks in May. In other words, I was a j a z z diplomat, and it was seriously one of the most amazing and surreal experiences of my life!
The band I was playing bass with was Aberdeen....
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCy6oGt2M3JjUZ51sRBeqb5g
We went to Kyrgyzstan and Mongolia, two countries I would never have had the opportunity to go to without a program like American Music Abroad. This program is a direct descendant of similar tour that American jazz bands embarked upon during the 1950's and 1960's to promote American cultural interests around the world at the height of the Cold War. It was an incredible honor to be following in the footsteps of luminaries like Duke Ellington, Dave Brubeck, Dizzie Gillespie and Louis Armstrong.
(BTW, the term I used in the beginning of the video, “Jazz Propaganda” should be taken totally tongue-in-cheek as a joke and definitely not literally! We played gigs and conducted educational workshops)
Thanks to Mia, our tour manager over at American Music Abroad, the US embassies in Mongolia and Kyrgyzstan, the people of Mongolia and Kyrgyzstan, and everybody who made this tour possible.
Aberdeen AMA edition was...
Brian Plautz — Sax/bandleader
Jared Yee — Sax
VJ Brown — Guitar
C-Bass Chiriboga — Drums
Me — BASS

Is playing to track cheating?
My band Sungazer plays to backing tracks — are we cheating? Or are we simply continuing the tradition of Pierre Schaefer and the electroacoustic avant-garde of the 1950's? Or...is that just a pretentious way of justifying lazy practice?
I was recently on an episode of PBS Sound Field where I jammed with Nahre Sol, a classical pianist, and LA Buckner, a gospel/R&B drummer, and talked about our different backgrounds and approaches to playing. Check it out!

The band SUNGAZER is...
☀️Adam Neely (that's me!) — Bass
☀️Shawn Crowder — Drums
w/ special guests
☀️Jared Yee — Saxophone

Analyzing the Bach Harmonizer Doodle
The Google AI Bach harmonizer doodle is a fun thing to play with, but it...gets it wrong, a lot. I’m going to play with it, explain why it’s wrong, and why you probably won’t be able to cheat with it on your music theory assignments any time soon.
