New on JCR Records: Jazzanova Reworks From Japan
In the beginning these remixes were aimed to be released on CD in Japan
only. Due to high demand now they will get a worldwide release on vinyl.
Calm¹s remix of "Introspection² taken from Jazzanova EP2 on JCR Records is
simply wonderful.
"Coffee Talk² the exclusive track for the Future Sounds Of Jazz Vol. 4
compilation is remixed by Yukihiro Fukutomi. A stunning tune, showing
Fukutomi¹s great talent in music.
"Fedime¹s Flight² taken from Jazzanova EP1 on JCR gets the jazzed-up
treatment by the Kyoto Jazz Massive. KJM are Japan¹s first address when it
comes to innovative jazz-influenced music. Not to be missed !!
Expect the vinyl in April 2001.
Nemo on JCR:
A 12² by Nemo called "Darkest Day² including mixes by Worlds Of Apples and
Phil Asher aka Restless Soul will be out in summer 2001.
The Underwolves album and new remixes on JCR
You surely remember all the print adverts and previews of a brilliant album
by The Underwolves, which was supposed to come out on Island Blue Records
earlier this year, but it actually never did.
Surprise !! Jazzanova-Compost Records will release this album in summer
2001. Don¹t worry the music won¹t sound dated by then, as their music is of
such high quality that it still sounds as fresh as ever. There will be new
remixes by Earthbound, Fauna Flash, Intega (Sonar Kollektive) and the old
remixes by Restless Soul, Peshay vs. Photek, Spacek and Juryman will be
re-released, as some of the remixes were only available on promo (for
example the wonderful Restless Soul Peaktime Mix).
