Welcome along, my Forgotten Treasures" unearths soulful jazz, fusion classics, and spiritual grooves from deep in my collection, a rediscovery of music I’d almost lost.

Forgotten Treasures series of mixes came about when I had some friends stay with me and they were going through my music collection of and looking at my collection of soulful jazz, fusion classics, global grooves, spiritual jazz, jazz nostalgia, deep cuts, and rare finds in my stored music.

Someone said the words we are finding some Forgotten Treasures here and  

Forgotten Treasures was born.

Jazz Matters

Jazz Matters is a not-for-profit hobby project that I’m extremely proud of.

It began life in May 2021 as NuDirections, a weekly radio show on a London community station. That spirit of discovery still runs through everything I do.

But today, Jazz Matters has evolved into a global podcast platform for Jazz and World music lovers — reaching over 40,000 open-minded listeners across 57 countries on more than 24 platforms.2025/6 marks a new era. My love of music has always gone beyond Jazz, so I’ve created two distinct but connected spaces here

Jazz Matters: Podcasts, Playlists and Music Videos.

Jazz Lines: Blogs, Interviews, Gallery & Pulse for Who's Shaping the Scene.

I’m also preparing a full digital relaunch from my new studio, from 1st May 2026, then every Jazz Matters podcast, mix, and special will stream exclusively from my website—no third-party platforms and no algorithms. Until then, you can listen here and on 24+ podcast platforms. 

Alongside the music, you’ll find in Jazz Lines, my platform for blogs, interviews, gallery, and pulse that links to things that catch my ear and eye. A bold new chapter begins soon. New location. New music player. New studio.

Jazz Matters. Because the music — and everything around it — truly does.
