Ocean Wave remix - The Ripple Effect

Video by Ben ZoltewiczThe longer versions of this track, featuring Jack DeJohnette and Foday Musa Suso will be available on the album by "The Ripple Effect" :"Hybrids" on Jack's label "Golden Beams Productions".The Project: The Ripple Effect was conceived of as a project to blend some of the elements of modern electronica/dance music with previously recorded music by Jack DeJohnette and some of his collaborators. All of the music on this album was taken from multitrack recordings. Some elements were added, sometimes overdubbed and edited, while other parts were omitted. The structure and composition were altered, but the musicality was retained. While staying true to the original�s feel, a new piece of music was created.We believe this hybridization of styles is a part of the natural developmental flow of music. Enjoy.The Artists: As a leader, composer and drummer, Jack DeJohnette has supported some of the most important and innovative musicians of our time, including Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins, Carlos Santana, Keith Jarrett, Herbie Hancock & Pat Metheny. Widely regarded as one of jazz music's greatest drummers, DeJohnette�s playing has long drawn on sources beyond jazz. Never willing to sit still long enough to be categorized, he was already describing his work as multi-directional music thirty years ago.
