World Science Festival 2009: Bobby McFerrin Demonstrates the Power of the Pentatonic Scale

It’s unfortunate that many people only remember Bobby McFerrin as the “Don’t Worry Be Happy” guy. Don’t get me wrong, that is one hell of a catchy tune, but there’s a lot more to Bobby than that.

Here’s a few of my personal favorites:

Improvisation with Richard Bona
Drive
Montreux Jazz Festival with Chick Corea

Peter Bjorn and John – “Lay It Down”

Personally, I like “Nothing To Worry About” more… though I don’t find rockabilly Asians quite as mind-warping (even the giant haired ones).

I happened upon a great collaboration between Adult Swim (or is it adult swim? [adult swim]? Annnywho..) and Ghostly International called Ghostly Swim.

It’s a funktastically electronic compilation featuring some pretty kick-ass artists, and the best part is that it’s freely available to stream and download! You can also pick up a physical copy on Ghostly’s site.

Still not convinced? Here’s a video to further explorer the aforementioned awesomeness:

Be sure to check out more Deastro, Michna, and Mux Mool (from Moodgadget).

But wait, there’s more! Check out more tracks at Kutiman’s site, Thru You.

These mixes remind me of the VideoSongs by Jack Conte and Nataly Dawn of Pomplamoose. You’ll see every instrument or vocal part in the video somewhere.

To me, the big difference between Kutiman and Pomplamoose (other than style of music, of course) is that Kutiman is mixing from a bajillion video of questionable sound quality while Pomplamoose records at seemingly near studio quality. Both are awesome, but big kudos to Kutiman for making everything sound so clean and freakin’ funktastic regardless of the scattered and varied sources.

Thanks for the link Ken

Made me think of Landing of Yuri Gagarin by Ozma. Though, not for musical reasons, obviously

Why have I done these things?  Well, simply because I am classy, sophisticated, and by all accounts quite cultured.

Also, this is the first thing I’ve ever uploaded to YouTube.  How exciting!
