Bassist Kaisa M‰ensivu formed her ensemble Kaisas Machine in 2015 and made her debut with the group in 2017 on the tight-knit, imaginative In the Key of K. In the midst of this, in 2016, she moved from her native Finland to New York, and thus began a process of artistic growth and transformation. She earned her masters degree from Manhattan School of Music, studying with the likes of Dave Liebman and Ron Carter. And though she brought new players into her orbit, she kept the Kaisas Machine name, landing on Dave Douglas prestigious Greenleaf Music label for the follow-up release Taking Shape, her first album as a New Yorker.

This album represents a new, progressive and hard-hitting direction in my music that is a reflection of New York, says M‰ensivu. I was more of a straightahead bassist when I moved here, but the city has changed me as a player and composer. I feel like this music captures the magic of New York, where we all have this symbiotic language and the atmosphere is open to new things.

The lineup on Taking Shape, she adds, is a perfect and fresh mix of old and new musical relationships, including people Ive played with ever since moving here (drummer Joe Peri) and some incredible new members (Sasha Berliner, Tivon Pennicott) that I played with only once or twice with before this session. Pianist Eden Ladin, too, was someone Id played with in a more traditional standards setting, but I knew he would capture the vibe of my music right away. Max Light has been in the NYC version of this band since the beginning Id been wanting to add guitar to the lineup for a while, and Maxs sound was exactly what I was looking for.

Powerful and Convicting
Format: Kindle
I loved reading Keep Your Love On so much and have already recommended it to several family members, as well as friends. The book cuts through so many barriers that have kept me from being a “powerful” person who loves like Jesus and fights for connectedness with all my relationships. I have gained verbiage for behaviors I have fallen into but also tools and ways to change from familiarity to a bold, liberating way of living as Christ lives inside of me. I have learned the power of boundaries, the depth of loving others, as well as knowing what I can control and how to live accordingly. Every chapter gave so much wisdom and Danny Silk wove the love of God into every page of this book.

A transformational tool that "reparented" me & empowered me to create a life that I love to live!
Format: Paperback
KYLO has brought the love scriptures to life in giving key ways to live them out in life, to exemplify it. My approach to relationships has changed in many ways. 1-I see the importance of value and honor of others as created in the image of God. God created them to be powerful and make choices. If He thought they were worth dying for why would I see them any differently just because they make choices, live lives, or belief ways that are differently than I do? Understanding more clearly that this does not mean that I will keep someone abusive or disrespectful in my closest relationships . There may be times they lose their close place in my life from their choices, but my love, honor and value for them, myself and others is to remain strong regardless of how they treat me or the messes they make. 2- I am able to approach others with healthy boundaries and not be afraid or their agreement or acceptance of me or my family.I will allow my husband and children to be powerful and set healthy boundaries with others in how they manage their “yes” and “no” even if that means they don’t want to do something that I would like to do .3- I have also grown in my ability to desire to help empower others and not reduce their power trying to control them so that I am comfortable. No longer feeling the need to manipulate situations to always be ‘’like I think they should be or want them to be.” Celebrating others in their uniqueness and choices even if I don’t understand completely. 4-My ability and desire and practice of listening to truly understand others, their heart, their dreams and goals. Not to judge them, not to try to prove my point, prove them wrong or get them to agree with me. I have seen huge shifts in this area of my life as I have applied the KYLO 5 principles taught in this book. 5-KYLO has helped me to understand how God designed me for connection and how childhood wounds that I carried have caused me to have unhealthy relationship patterns, communicate disrespectfully, move out of fear and not love, and have no clue of healthy boundaries- I now feel like I have been reparented and empowered to step into a life that I love to live in and set a better “more Christ like example” to my children! My hope has been ignited, my joy has been increased and my love has been transformed towards GOD, myself, my precious family, friends and the Body of Christ!

A course in true true power, true honor and true love for ALL your relationships
If you have a stack of books you want to read about love languages, boundaries, communication and relationship psychology, set them aside for when you have a few months of free time.... Now, pick up a copy of 'Keep Your Love On' by Danny Silk. I am a long time reader and listener of Danny Silk's wisdom and this little gem is a streamlined reference for many of the things that he passionately believes in and teaches for maintaining healthy relationships - from spouse to acquaintance. Utilizing easy to understand analogies and other tools, Silk shares what it takes to keep loving even in the midst of conflicts that arise in our dealings with fellow humans. Some of my favorite things: -His focus on the incompatibility of love and control. -His emphasis on learning to communicate one's own actions rather than dictating to others what they should do. -Instruction on learning how to decide who you will say 'yes' to and who that means saying 'no' to. -I love the diagram Silk created to illustrate levels of intimacy needed to "cultivate and protect boundaries." Your Inner-most circle is for God, next for your most intimate human relationship, and from there the circles flow out farther away into the most outer circle to whom you might love with prayers or hopeful thoughts but not much else (as an example in his diagram, Silk's outer circles are populated by Charlie Sheen and Al Qaeda...I'm not sure if that's a commentary on his opinion of Charlie Sheen or not, but it made me laugh!). -In the same chapter on levels of intimacy I found the peace that I needed in reconciling my desire to love unconditionally with my need to change the dynamic of a formerly close relationship...It is stated: "Often people who once held the 'most intimate' place in our lives find themselves out in the Al Quaeda Sphere...We keep our love on toward them but it may be a very long time before we ever have them over for dinner." Thank you, Mr. Silk, for confirming that it is OK to protect myself from emotional harm. -Danny Silk is a Christian Counselor/Pastor with an unwavering Christian perspective, yet the bulk of the book does not belabor this point and there isn't constant Biblical Proof-texting or preaching. Because of this I feel very comfortable in sharing this book with my friends who might be of a different faith or who might not care to read a book heavily laden with theology just to get to the practical wisdom within. -I can't wait to practice being a Blue-Ray Player. ....And to understand that last one you will have to get this book! KYLO!!!

A practical guide to interpersonal relationships...
My wife and I picked up copies of Keep Your Love On! ("KYLO") for our 8 year anniversary. As we had followed a small group study on Mr. Silk's "Loving Your Kids on Purpose", and found his teaching to be incredibly practical in our day to day relations with our children, we were excited to see what Mr. Silk had to say about marriage. More than a book on marriage, KYLO is an overview of how to create and foster intimate interpersonal relationships by learning to make connections, communicate effectively and set appropriate boundaries. Mr. Silk uses anecdotal experiences from his personal life and ministry to set the stage for each chapter in the book. What I ended up walking away with from KYLO was the discussion on "love languages" (how people receive and give love);the seven pillars of a healthy relationship; communicating in conflict; and a breakdown on the various levels of intimacy. These concepts gave my wife and I, who on all accounts have a happy marriage, food for thought and opportunities to discuss how to make our "good thing" better. Though the book is written from an evangelical Christian perspective, I believe the book has value even for non-Christians. The analysis of interpersonal dynamics, communication styles, and behavioral cycles all have a secular academic foundation which comes to the same conclusions Mr. Silk arrives at by biblical means. Though "self help" books are not a genre I usually cozy to, I thoroughly enjoyed KYLO. I would recommend this book for anyone who wants to know what a healthy relationship looks like and how to foster healthy relationships in your own life.

Really Helpful!
Format: Paperback
The concepts about communication and relationships in this book are sometimes very basic (e.g., "I statements"), yet presented very well. And some of the concepts are absolutely wonderful in the way they present ways to live well and love deeply those in one's closest circle. The book is useful for everyone, not just married couples and parents. I am a widow of many years, and found this book very valuable for my relationship with my almost 40-year old son, and with my sister and her family, and other relationships as well. I'm going to go back through the book at least once a year to keep the concepts fresh and in the forefront of my mind.
