release description

Jazzanova is clearly knowledgeable in all things jazz. That’s why Blue Note picked them to put together a compilation showcasing the depths of the label’s legendary catalog. The 6-person strong German electronic music crew made a name for themselves by incorporating old-school sounds into their futuristic music through samples while their mind-warping DJ sets cover groovy sounds from all eras into the mix. Though Jazzanova’s instruments are different than those of the musicians of the past, they continue the jazz legacy by utilizing the same free-form style of production and keeping an open-minded spirit in all they do.

'Blue Note Trip: Lookin' Back & Movin' On' is the dream mixtape for anyone interested in the depths and soul of jazz music. Compiled by passionate experts who had the chance to pull anything out of the label’s vaults, the 2-CD set covers several decades of musical experimentation by talented players like Herbie Hancock, Bobbi Humphrey and Donald Byrd. Jazzanova included obscure oddities, radio-ready melodies, wild instrumentals, Latin percussion cuts and cosmic sounds. By introducing new audiences to the beauty of Blue Note, Jazzanova gets to show what they are all about – pure, moving music for all.
