The world of world-beat music is a journey of endless adventure. It gives its adventurers visits into the ways and whys the music happens and how it is created enhancing the cultures it comes from and the colorful and sensitive way it is vital to what it represents. To play and seek out music of the world, experience it, compose it, and share it, is an envious and sweetly ambitious kind of musician’s citizenship. A citizenship of artistry. Davis is an explorer of world music and has sourced the breadth of artistic resources in all of his musical offerings.
He is a founding member of the grand and beautiful music circus Manteca, a band embracing music from around the world, lending it a foundational grounding by collectively bringing it to a center with a foundation of home. Aaron is a film composer. Music in film is an integral part of the telling of the story, the pacing of the action and intent and purpose of motion and direction with a sensitivity to emotions. It is as apparent as light and camera angle, and as dynamically effective. For Aaron it is about angle and intent, direction and motion, and the full effect on the waves of the emotions.
