about

This song is in three parts, and is called Ahmed (which means perfect man) after Sun Ra’s long time collaborator Ahmed Abdullah. Born LeRoy Bland, Ahmed Abdullah blew minds with his tri-note trumpet tapestries and found a new dissonance in which to express himself in the mighty Sun Ra’s Arkestra. Maybe LeRoy Bland is not a perfect man, but he’s absolutely perfect man. See what I did there? That’s right…

Ahmed is the score for my love letter to the 3 Oscillator Analog Mono Synth exploring the arrival of this idea and its impact on the world from 1969 to the present tense.

Only the Roland SE-02 and Moog Minimoog were used as sound sources to perform this composition live to tape. No other effects or instruments were used to compose, to record or to perform it.

It is my wish that this inspires you to do better, to reach deeper, and blow my little electronic jazz tribute so far out of the water it’s silly…

Dig?
