Hard Kill (Ultra Rare Part II)

NU-Jazz / Future Jazz / Jazztronica / Chillout / FUNKY FUSION FUTURE DEEP GROOVE NU-JAZZ CHILLERS Explore the undefinable, otherworldly, esoteric genre known as nu jazz: a psychedelic and groove heavy journey on the forefront of the nu-jazz frontier tending toward a consciously experimental direction. Beautifully crafted piece of summery NU-JaZZ Fusion, a slinky, retro confection of irresistible grooving of a certain vintage, it’s a sun-kissed serenade to another era. The instrumentals add a soulful gravitas: there are echoes of dub, nu-jazz, bossa, chillout, free jazz and future jazz: all masterminded by Pied Piper. A stunning funky / soulful JAZZY house and well crafted ultra GROOVY slick tunes taking us back to a time when attention was paid to music, instrumentation, melody, rhythm, groove and SOUL! It's all about improviser’s art playing sonic backdrop colored by fragments of electronic sounds, rhythms and samples swimming through the music. Amid this world of altered realities and fresh possibilities, digital computer editing-literally cutting and pasting sound-allows for juxtapositions never even dreamed about in Charlie Parker’s day.
