SOUND TRAVELER SERIES FT. MILES BONNY

August 4, 2015 Record Breakin' Music

Sound Traveler Series #11 ft. Miles Bonny by Recordbreakin on Mixcloud

Miles Bonny (@milesbonny)

Every week in the high desert of New Mexico I DJ at a raw and large space called Taos Mesa Brewing. It sits just on the south end of a vast mesa which is home to the Earthships, as well as the beautiful Rio Grande Gorge and many mesa dwellers living a simple and free life in various structures, buses, and other structures that fit their needs and desires. Its a wild place and I am free to play what I want to hear and share. In this case, on this day, as the unusually sunny winter warmth comes and goes, I was inside of the Earthship Ampitheater, outside amid sun, beer, food, friends, and a need to share some soulful sounds influenced by dj culture, my youth around NYC, and record digging with this high and dry desert community. Bang on.

TEDxUCDavisSF :: Redefining Normal

May 16, 2015 Record Breakin' Music

May 17, 2015, our own DJ Junior will be presenting at

TEDxUCDavisSF :: Redefining Normal

During the course of our lives, what we consider to be normal changes as our lives evolve. Our personal interests change as do our responsibilities. What was considered normal 20, even 10 years ago, is not the same as what is consider normal today. These same shifts also occur in society, and we are witnesses to some of those changes now. Previously the world was made up of separate countries focused on its own welfare. Now we see the world as a global community, what happens in other parts of the world is no longer constrained by geography, especially with the development of advanced technology. Many of the things we strive for today are no longer as much about individual success but rather about what and how we can give back.

TEDxUCDavisSF is bringing a great collaboration of speakers, spanning across multiple continents, who are helping shape this new normal. The theme “Redefining Normal” looks to how we, as a society, can make this world a better place for current and future generations.

MILES TACKETT and THE 3 TIMES (live in Philly)

April 2, 2015 Record Breakin' Music

Miles Tackett and The 3 Times (live)
with guest DJ Skeme Richards

WHEN - April 5th 

WHERE- Sarah's Place (1216 N. 29th St.)

NO COVER!

After fifteen years of writing, producing, and performing some of the most influential sounds in the Los Angeles underground funky soul-jazz scene, Miles “Music Man” Tackett is releasing his most personal album yet, the soulful, guitar-centric The Fool Who Wonders, on July 8th.

Miles Tackett is best known around the world as the creative mind behind Breakestra, a funk, soul-jazz band whose first record the Live Mix Part 2 (Stones Throw Records) & live shows harken back to the pre-sampling era of Bronx DJ performances in the 1970’s. Breakestra has toured the globe on its reputation of restoring authentic funk breaks from the sampled backgrounds of hip hop tracks to the foreground of the live experience, while still paying tribute to those same hip hop pioneers whose musical precision has always been an influence. Breakestra quickly evolved to writing and performing original funky soul-jazz compositions, releasing two LPs: 2005’s Hit the Floor on Ubiquity, and Dusk Till Dawn released in 2009 on Strut Records.

“Music Man Miles,” as he is known in the underground DJ scene, also helms the longest-running funky soul party in Los Angeles, FUNKY SOLE, spinning a globe spanning, all-vinyl set every Saturday night. Influenced through his immersion in the underground hip hop scene at L.A. club The Root Down, collaborations with Mixmaster Wolf of Breakestra and renowned DJs like DJ Dusk, Cut Chemist and DJ Egon, Miles was inspired to build a collection of some of the finest deep funk, afro-latin, soul-jazz vinyl around & start djing as well.

Tackett’s musical reputation extends well beyond the underground clubs of Los Angeles. He has performed and collaborated with a wide range of artists, including Macy Gray, Blind Melon, B.B. King, Damien Marley, Little Feat, and legendary soul singer Syl Johnson. Now, after years of focusing on a purist funk style and sound with Breakestra, Tackett has finally taken some time to reflect, write new songs and return to his first love, the electric guitar. With an array of influences that draw from vintage soul, rhythm and blues, psychedelia, and blues/jazz influenced folk and rock, The Fool Who Wonders’ new vintage sounds bring Tackett’s varied musical travels back to where it all began.

Topanga Canyon, California is the Santa Monica mountain community where he grew up around an ever colorful group of artists, actors & musicians including the 70s americana rock band Little Feat which his multi instrumentalist father Fred Tackett is a current member of. Despite his adopted home out on the east side of L.A. the mountain still calls his name as his ode “Out in the canyon” attests.

On The Fool Who Wonders, Tackett uses his talents as producer/engineer to keep it analog tape warm and dirty at his New Tilt Studio. The new single “Just What I Need”, is the first recording to rise from Tackett’s latest collection of songs which features him on vocals, guitar & keys. Also featured on the album is a psych-soul reworking of a Byrds-era David Crosby song “Everybody’s Been Burned.”

The Fool Who Wonders is available on Rootdown L.A. Records.
