“Sonacy” is the undefined, unexplained derivative of sound ­a melodic experience without conformity or the neat packaging of category. Much too expansive to explain, it just is. Born from a collision of sound and matter, it is the place where musical performance elevates to a transformative spiritual experience. Pushing past earthly conventions and into the unknown, sonacy alludes to the supreme, transcendent power that exists at the intersection of every musical tradition. It is this sound and its creators that have been the heart of REVIVE’s mission for almost a decade. Captained by founder ​Meghan Stabile​, the organization has been the nucleus of one of the most important artistic advocacy initiatives of this era. Stabile’s distinct skills as a concert producer and promoter, coupled with the artistic purview of trusted musicians have birthed a brand of unique, genre­bending experiences. These events have positioned REVIVE as the fearless champion of virtuosity and allowed Stabile to shape a movement. Now, at the brink of the ten­year mark, Revive Music captures the spirit of its trademark on wax with ​Supreme Sonacy Volume 1. ​Wearing the hat of executive producer, Stabile enlisted a stellar roster of broad­ranged musicians including Igmar Thomas, Marc Cary, Marcus Strickland, Raydar Ellis, Christie Dashiell, Casey Benjamin, Terry Slingbaum, Brandee Younger, Keyon Harrold, Maurice Brown, Jaleel Shaw, Ray Angry, Chris Potter, James Genus, Kris Bowers and Ben Williams (​courtesy of Concord Records)​and the legendary​Jeff “Tain” Watts. ​The lineup represents the Revive narrative, which is steeped in the importance of community and innovation. Born from a giant leap of faith, the ​Supreme Sonacy Vol. 1​ compilation is the first release of it’s kind from Blue Note Records. Under the leadership of Don Was, Blue Note stands at the 75­-year mark poised to make history yet again. In partnership with REVIVE, Blue Note has placed a finger on the pulse of yet another sonic rebellion and positioned itself at the front line in the fight to ensure the survival of quality music. While REVIVE looks to the past for inspiration, Blue Note and Don Was look to REVIVE for the future. “Revive is positioned at the heart of this decade’s progressive music. I can think of no better way to honor the tradition of Blue Note Records than to associate ourselves with such a forward­-looking, activist organization.”
