Alankara & Jazzy D – Lifesong/Devotion EP

Categories: Releases. Trackback.
19 August 2008

Dutch producer, DJ and musician Jazzy D is known for many productions and performance of Future Groove Express, a band of DJ with live musicians which started in 1996, and himself as a “pianist DJ”, combining his jazz piano roots with turntables. He was also the one responsible for Hardsoul’s “Back Together” with Ron Caroll (okay, it was written by Jazzy D) that turned out to be a real hit from 2003.

For a number of projects, Jazzy D works together with another Dutch producer Hugo Zwarts aka Alankara. Currently they are working on a full smooth jazz downtempo album together, and few tracks are ready. “Devotion” and “Lifesong” have been put together to an EP. It was signed to a small indie label Aenaria Music that was launched in 2006 by Italian DJ and producer Luca Ricci. Got nothing to say about the label, but this EP is really the one of my taste. Both tracks are laid back tunes with loads of trumpet, keys and guitars improvisations. Kinda smooth jazz with house padding. Brilliant!
