No, not the mysterious world from James Cameron’s Avatar, Jason’s Funky Folk is now available to listeners at Pandora Radio. There is a sophisticated process of application, submission, acceptance, blood sacrifice, resubmission, waiting period, album analysis and final inclusion in the Music Genome Project. Here’s how the MGP describes the music on Funky Folk…
“a kid-friendly vibe, folk, r & b, funk, country and bluegrass influences, mild rhythmic syncopation, flat out funky grooves, electric rhythm guitars, a prominent mandolin part, prominent percussion, an instrumental arrangement, mixed acoustic and electric instrumentation, solo strings, an upbeat two-step feel, use of the wah wah pedal, extensive vamping, major key tonality, subtle use of the harmonica, electric rhythm guitars, prominent organ, acoustic rhythm guitars”
… and don’t forget totally awesome! Thanks Pandora and THANK YOU, Jason Riley.
