… with over 30 worldwide available releases until today. Well known remixers from the UK, the US, France, Germany, Japan or Scandinavia came up with new versions of the 60s & 70s material and we here at Sonorama were happy to put the best of them out. Now this new Mix-CD entitled “Sonorama Remix Collection” presents the next chapter of boundless jazz recordings, that could be labeled as “freestyle electro funk breaks”.
An unreleased (and over 50 year old) Elsie Bianchi Trio-edit kicks off a variety of contemporary mixes from the Sonorama catalogue, that have been released for the DJs on “vinyl only” until today. But what to expect from an 18 track mixed CD encompassing recordings from 1954 to 2008?
It presents an eclectic mix of remixes incl. previously unreleased tracks to show, how a DJ could use the refreshed material in his own vibe, mashing original rare groove sounds with new electronic beats, from jazz to electro, from funk to house, from afrobeat to dub, from latin to hiphop it is all here, finally showing, what sort of 20th century quality styles developed from “the first jazz movement”. And there are many more stories to be told about certain sounds in this unique selection. May you discover them while listening to this timeless collection. Exceptional taste and the universal love for good music should make this remix volume a great choice for freestyle afficionados and all other openminded music lovers.

Note:
The opener “Darktown Strutters Ball”, played here by jazz legend Elsie Bianchi Trio feat. Swiss jazz legend René Nyffeler on recorder (!) was taped by Radio Zuerich in 1954 and remains to be the earliest traditional jazz song to become a standard. A version recorded 1917 by the Original Dixieland Jazz Band may be the earliest commercially made jazz record. The Elsie Bianchi take was recorded at the Zuerich Amateur Jazz Festival, where young Swiss jazz musicians played their own versions of American standards. And like today`s remixers, these musicians were asked by the radio station to send in their own recorded versions of standards in their role as “forerunners of the jazz remix”.
Executive production of the Sonorama RMX Collection by Ekkehart Fleischhammer, mastered by Jury Lutz, cover design by Patrick Haase aka rab.bit., idea and photo of the Cymbal Turntable by Christian Bauer. Check all other releases on www.sonorama.de.
Thanks so much to all involved original artists, producers and remixers!
