Availability: In Stock Artist: DJ Jo_iLL Description Any good piece of music will utilize the concept of "tension and release," just to keep the music dynamic and the listener, listening. You know that feeling that a song gives you, when it builds up so much tension in your chest, you feel like your heart is going to explode. Then a chord changes, a beat or bass line drops... All of a sudden your hand is uncontrollably thrust into the air, a smile seems to take over your face, your head nods with such conviction as if it was being moved by the hand of God. You then feel this overwhelming feeling of satisfaction... yessssss! Sounds like good sex right? (I think I've stuck my head in too many Bass Bins at the Drum and Bass rooms at raves.) I was lucky enough one night to experience Cody Chesnutt facilitate a lesson in "tension & release" at a Roots concert, with nothing but a guitar and his bass player. What was so amazing about it, to me, was the fact that he was teaching us; breaking it down as if he was wanting to instill us with the power of media literacy. Trying to show us how formula used in a media is used to manipulate an audience. During his performance, I decided I wanted to use an example of this technique in my next mixtape. This mixtape will take you from war (which is so relevant to the times), to a warm day on a California beach, dreaming about love. Because the transition from tension to release is slow and gradual, by the time you get to the end of the mix, you'll forget it ever started out with war. Isn't it great how a good song can always ease the tension? Track Listing 1. War Intro 2. Mr. Lif - Heavy Artillery 3. Handsome Boy Modeling School - Holy Calamity 4. Beastie Boys - 33% God 5.
