dynamitesoul This album is a vibe. I found it on the internet by accident in 2001. It was the dopest thing ever. It was fresh and expansive and extended the genius of the original artists. I love Jazz, Hip Hop, House, and R&B, and this album has elements of all of that yet is its own thing. There's a freedom in the approach to this album that I celebrate. It is essential and here I am over 20 years later still singing its praises. A classic.

cchooley I return to this again, and again, and again. Still feels like it's bursting at the seams with effortless invention. Still uniquely brilliant. Favorite track: We Who Are Not As Others (Jazzanova Mix).

dalust One of my old time favorites. Works for the head and legs. Scored a pirated CD around 2001 and it skipped on my favorite track! A decade later, I got 3xLP boxset which I gifted to someone who appreciated it as much as I did. 2020 came around and I bought the LPs again. Deep, playful and so much fun! Favorite track: Metti Una Sera A Cena (Jazzanova Mix).

Liza Nicklin I used to have this on vinyl back in the day as a nice box-set, which I stupidly sold when I moved to Canada!!! I've waited YEARS for this to be re-issued, checking from time to time. And finally, here it is! These guys have been a big influence on me. Pure class. Favorite track: What's Your Number (Jazzanova Renumber).

about

Jazzanova are a Berlin based producer collective consisting of the Jazzanova DJ-team (Jürgen von Knoblauch, Alexander Barck and Claas Brieler), the producers of Extended Spirit (Stefan Leisering and Axel Reinemer) and Kosma (Roskoe Kretschmann).
Jazzanova had discovered their sonic brotherhood DJing at Berlin's Delicious Doughnuts Club and hooked up as a team back in 1995.

To Jazzanova, music means the search for a common language of international club music, to take in influences from all different cultures and musical styles, to fuse these styles together and get the audience involved in the whole musical spectrum of that fusion. Their love for deep jazz and modern beats has led their music to become a somewhat stunning amalgamation of retro and new sounds that echoes almost all musical styles from HipHop or Afrofunk to Drum & Bass, Boogie, Brazil, Latin, and Soul. Always reacting directly to new and fresh influences, Jazzanova have developed a percussion-oriented, sophisticated, clean and warm broken-beat-style that is constantly changing in form and allows no pigeon-holing. It's just simply jazzanova!

Ever since Gilles Peterson played their first track, "Fedime's Flight", on his radio show in 1997, Jazzanova have been asked to produce remixes for many of their idols, acts like U.F.O., 4Hero, Incognito, and Azymuth.
Jazzanova still first and foremost remix pieces of artists that have especially influenced and inspired them. In their attempt to pay tribute to the artist they are interpreting, Jazzanova always try to capture the very essence not only of the particular track, but of the entire album. As you listen closely to their remixes, you will always discover elements of the artist's former records and find the spirit of his entire work reflected. As each Jazzanova remix is produced with great respect and effort, it is no wonder they sometimes spend up to three months in the studio before a remix is completed. What they finally come up with are some excellently produced, very DJ-set oriented pieces that shift between different styles and tempi, oscillate between jazzy and electronic feelings and are sure to enjoy dancers and listeners alike.

The Sonar Kollektiv is very glad and grateful to re-release this album.
