Description:

â? Audiophiles 180g Vinyl â?¢ Inkl. Druckbeileger â?¢ Ein Mix von Jazz & Rap mit Samples aus Blue Note Klassikern â?¢ Inkl. dem Hit â??Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)â?, â??I Got It Goinâ?? Onâ?, u.v.m. â?¢ Black Vinyl Edition â? Das britische Jazz/Hip-Hop-Fusion-Kollektiv Us3 wurde 1992 in London gegrÃ¼ndet. Zu seinen namhaften Mitgliedern gehÃ¶rten die Produzenten Mel Simpson und Geoff Wilkinson. Einen groÃ?en Hit landete die Gruppe 1994 mit "Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)", einem StÃ¼ck, das die Vorliebe der Gruppe fÃ¼r das Sampling klassischer Aufnahmen des Blue-Note-Labels (in diesem Fall Herbie Hancocks "Cantaloupe Island") zeigte. Das StÃ¼ck war auf ihrem DebÃ¼talbum â??Hand On The Torchâ?? enthalten. Das Album war das Ergebnis ihrer Beziehungen zum Blue-Note-EigentÃ¼mer Capitol Records, der Simpson und Wilkinson freie Hand lieÃ?, alles aus dem Blue-Note-Katalog zu sampeln. Zusammen mit mehreren Musikern und den Rappern Kobie Powell und Rahsaan Kelly sampelten sie eine Reihe von Blue Note-Klassikern, von Art Blakey und Thelonious Monk bis hin zu Horace Sylver und dem bereits erwÃ¤hnten Herbie Hancock. Mit der VerÃ¶ffentlichung von â??Hand On The Torchâ?? hatten Us3 eine der raffiniertesten Verbindungen zwischen den Stilen geschmiedet - es wurde zu einem der meistverkauften Jazz-Alben des Blue Note Labels. - 180GR./INSERT/FT.
