Jason Miles has been around for a long time, programming synths for and jamming with the likes of Miles Davis and Luther Vandross, let alone producing other side projects over the years. DJ Logic has been around, too, working with ?uestlove, Vernon Reid, Marcus Miller and many more. The two have been through a lot together, traveling the world from Japan to Marrakech before finally releasing the first Global Noize album in 2008, later joined permanently by Indian vocalist Falu on their latest, A Prayer For The Planet (Lightyear/EMI). Global Noize will be guest editing magnetmagazine.com all week. Read our brand new Q&A with Logic and Miles.
Miles: The Fillmore East and Cafe Au Go Go were my second homes from 1967 to 1969. I saw so many shows there. Jimi Hendrix, Sly & the Family Stone, Super Session, Paul Butterfield, the Electric Flag, the Jefferson Airplane, the Grateful Dead, Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, Chicago, the Mothers Of Invention; the list goes on and on. It set me up to know that along with the great jazz artists of the time, I was turning into a hybrid musician. One who appreciated all great music.
