This Beat Is Mine! (*) dZihan & Kamien – Stiff Jazz (Couch Records)
I always come back to ‘Stiff Jazz’ with a lot of pleasure. Quite surprising from these two producers hailing from Vienna who’ve made themselves quite a reputation in the lounge scene. Although very much illustrative of their versatility in the meantime. As a matter of fact, I’ve become a Nu Jazz fan with people like Nicola Conte and I love the way these people have explored new directions. Another big surprise was when I noticed the presence of famous percusionnist Sammy Figueroa on this, who used to work with legends such as Miles Davis and Chic.
This to me is pure Boogaloo Jazz and I hope you’ll like it too. Un abbraccio forte a tutti!
