jazzy

After the Larry Heard post, it’s about time I get a few selected house tracks off my “feature it” directory. The Haaksman & Haaksman remix of Stereotyp’s Keepin’ Me is as massive as it gets, with a muted guitar at the back, female vocals and a funky steppa rhythms.

We’ll begin the second part of this 3 part mix with the overlooked Re:Jazz remix compilation from 2004. The first track by one of my favourite artists Nicola Conte, is a classic Conte song with uptempo bass and bossanova, and as if it wasn’t enough there’s another delicious remix by RAS.

BTFC seems to be made up of musicians hailing from Uruguay & Argentina. Gustavo Santaolalla (b.1952) is well known for his abilities in producing and compiling soundtrack albums for movies like 21 grams, Amores Perros and Brokeback Mountain which he won an Academy Award for his original score with.
