Melinda Sullivan - “While spending the afternoon in the studio with Dr. Steve Gadd, we truly found a rhythmic synergy. Steve and I met that same day, thanks to Larry, and introduced ourselves through playing together. It was magical. What you hear on Do You Like, as well as two other tracks on the album Twins and Dyad, are single-takes. There was very little talking, just us listening and responding. Steve saw the drummer in me and I saw the tap dancer in him. 10/10 joy for me that day.”

ABOUT THE LP

Grammy nominated pianist da composer Larry Goldings da kuma tap dancer extraordinaire Melinda Sullivan suna bangaskiya don samar Big Foot, wani fasaha, daya daga cikin wani nau'i na Colorfield Records.

When Goldings and Sullivan met shortly before the COVID pandemic, they had no way of knowing just how impactful it would become for both of them. By 2021, they had begun meeting in Goldings’ backyard to play together and posting videos of their jam sessions to social media. The project was immediately recognized by musicians and journalists who saw in the connection of tap dance and jazz, a deep legacy stretching back over 100 years.

It was inevitable that the duo would eventually take the project off the socials and into the studio. From the beginning, they knew that they would need to develop a specific sonic language for the recording. This led them to engineer-producer Pete Min, a man committed to making artful records that explore the space between improvisation and composition, chaos and control, intention and discovery.

Sana daya daga cikin kwarewa na saita tare da wani tap dancer, Goldings da Sullivan ya samu, shi ne cewa music ya kamata a zama dacewa - a matsayin music - ba tare da tsari na yadda ya samu. Big Foot yana samun daidaito tsakanin yin daidaito na musically mai ban sha'awa ba tare da over-manipulating na sonic yanki, da ya yiwuwa da Sullivan a matsayin ban mamaki dancer. “My main thing,” ya ce Goldings, "sa cewa na so mutane duba abin da Melinda yana yi."  

During the recording sessions, Goldings immersed himself in analog synthesis and employed a catalog of keyboards that would make any electronic enthusiast envious. Sullivan dances in socks, sand and sneakers for the majority of the album, allowing her rhythmic nuance to come forward. The toe, heel, slide, and taps that she coaxes are complex, sometimes evoking brushes on a snare drum, other times tablas or frame drums, and still other times the sound of an analog drum machine or beat box.
