DJ PROMO: Barrio Jazz Gang Feat. Eddie Henderson - 2 Album Sampler

February 5th, 2010

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

In 2002, Barrio Jazz Gang released its first CD Spectrum, venturing into Nu Jazz territory with an electronic flair. Their new project 2 is a work born from the union of producer/composer Roby Colella (founder of Funky Juice Records) and co-producer/composer and guitarist Steve Micarelli. This digital DJ promo includes “Jumpclub,” the most representative track and natural successor to the popular “Chok-A-Blok Avenue.” It evolves thematically and rhythmically, creating a truly fresh concept of jazz, danceable yet hypnotically fascinating. “Five Apple-Maples” is a tribute to the Paul Desmond jazz classic “Take Five” but projected into the Third Millenium with a tasty 5/4 electronic loop. “Sunday Show (Remix)” closes the album with the mainstream Nu Jazz is in full effect. Elvin Jones-style cymbal work and a four on the floor bass drum beat support veteran trumpet jazzer Eddie Henderson’s flights of fantasy. The Benson-flavored guitar and repetitive, mantra-like vocal phrasing seals the deal on this groovin’ track.
