Jazz / Electronica
The connection between jazz and contemporary dance music has always been a strong and natural one. From it's earliest days, jazz had people dancing and in recent years, countless dance floors have vibrated to the voices of Nina Simone and Billie Holiday over a powerful house beat. The American composer, conductor, and self-described "March King" John Philip Sousa observed, "Jazz will endure as long as people hear it through their feet instead of their brains."
The artists represented in the Verve catalog are some of the most important in jazz history and their influence surfaces in genres as wide ranging from pop, hip-hop, R&B, and country. Many modern day producers and DJs pillage record stores for rare Verve vinyl from which they draw samples and inspiration.
In the spirit of jazz - keeping the legacy in focus while moving forward - Verve opened its vaults to today’s top producers and DJs. Twelve remixers, through their individual creative visions, have seamlessly integrated a contemporary context for these songs while maintaining the deepest respect for the original landmark versions.
It is our hope that the work of these brilliant DJs and producers will introduce a new generation to this timeless music.
This box set includes Verve Remixed, Verve Remixed 2, Verve Remixed 3 and a bonus disc with previously unreleased mixes & videos!
