      Makaya wandered into my practice room, or vice versa (can’t remember which), while we were both studying music at UMass. I wasn’t a jazz kid but we talked music and jammed a bit. Gracious dude and amazing musician.

      Almost by accident I discovered Makaya. I was working on a website dedicated to Blue Note, and while working on this I was listening to a Spotify playlist from this same label, where Makaya appeared with the album "DECIPHERING THE MESSAGE". Man, only a few musicians have surprised me as much as Makaya did when I first heard it.

    One of the best parts about living in Chicago is that Makaya plays tons of shows here (almost always with Junius Paul). I've been to tons of his shows, and I got to tell you, it's always, always, ALWAYS fire! The energy is always INSANE!

      that's awesome ya i was just thinking of nate smith and marcus gilmore - makaya is right there! oh i have to make room in my heart for another drummer. like that's any effort! Man i never heard Makaya before now. what a band too!

      honest question: I'm not a deep jazz head but i keep my ear out - there's a thing tho right? Where fantastic drummers are becoming the band leads? The band names? i've seen that a little. maybe bc i focus on drummers but ya

      @superbide Год назад +8

      @@clumsiii A lot of drummers are definitely getting their flowers nowadays. Chris Dave, JD Beck, Makaya Mccraven, etc. I think we're just in an era where jazz-heads really appreciate the pocket, and when it comes to the pocket, drums are king.
