2015 Detroit Jazz Festival Lineup Announced!
The lineup for the 2015 edition of the Detroit Jazz Festival was announced this week. I am always like a kid in a candy shop when news about the Jazz Fest comes out. I have made a point of spending as much time as possible every Labor Day Weekend at the Festival since my first trip in 1986. I have been introduced to new artists, heard music legends play, been sunburned to a crisp, and caught in the vicious thunderstorm that was the only time a set was cancelled in the history of the festival. Rain or shine, I have been there.
Pat Metheny
This year’s Artist in Residence was announced as Pat Metheny, the jazz guitar legend. He is featured in four different settings over the course of the weekend. I was in attendance in 2012 for the set with the Pat Metheny Unity Band, and I can tell…

Just had to share this with everyone from Steve Freedom https://traktomizer.com/.
We have a New Toy – Song Optimization Software
Getting streaming music plays recognised by the bots which recommend music to music listeners is difficult for unknown artists lying under the radar of the streaming bots. Knowing how to rise above the parapet helps enormously in ensuring our artists work is getting seen & heard. The newly developed software “Traktomizer” by Steve Freedom is changing the game. Imagine having a tool at your disposal designed to leverage songs to ensure they achieve poll position on music streaming sites such as Spotify. We have recently purchased this software & are enjoying the easy user interface which we are able to quickly optimize our artists songs. This software is meant for use at the final stage of production prior to mastering. I am also delighted that Steve has found my feedback useful from a user perspective & he will be making public some of our discussions/feedback about the software for the benefit of other users of this software in due course. Susanna Lepianka, Owner of DyNaMik Records.
I knew
I knew I had gone in before
but today, I met with a closed-door
no matter how hard I pushed
I couldnt get in
We encounter daily problems
in similar ways
they just seem to plague our days
yet, if we step back
and take a different tack
we often find we were on the right track
only our approach needed new perspective
we did in fact, know
only our focus was inactive
it is important in life
to stop and allow your mind to chill
your body to relax
so that each day can really begin
brand new.
