Slauson Malone 1
Manage episode 398345754 series 2396568
Embark on a journey through the innovative soundscape of Jasper Marsalis, known artistically as Slauson Malone 1, in a conversation that transcends the conventional boundaries of music genres. As we sit down with Jasper, we uncover the multifaceted layers of his album "Excelsior," a fusion of the avant-garde, alt R&B, and lo-fi rock that defies easy categorization. He talks about his rich heritage, his father being Pulitzer Prize winning jazz legend Winton Marsalis, yet this ain’t no nepo baby: Jasper is an acclaimed exhibiting visual artist and his music feels like the communication of a true outlier.
In a broader exploration of artistic expression, we tackle the subjective nature of art evaluation and the complex dynamics of inspiration. Through discussions on alter egos in music to the legacy of 60s experimental composers, we navigate the interwoven themes of music, societal commentary, and the creative legacy that define our cultural landscape. Jasper's reflections on balancing the weight of a musical family name with his individual path provide a candid glimpse into the world where personal history and artistic aspiration converge. Join us for this compelling episode, where we dissect the essence of what makes music a timeless form of human connection and self-expression.
Excelsior is out now on Warp Records
