Customer Reviews:

Jazzanova must buy.......2007-05-12

Wow what a stunner! Best LP I've bought in a good long time. I came to Jazzanova late but made up for lost time. For me this is easily their best work which is saying a lot. If you like Jazzanova you will love this. I insist you buy it right now! Is it NuJazz? NuJazzSoul? New Electronica-Jazz? Nu Jazz-Hop? Electronica Soul-Hop? As I listen to it it now... I'm still in awe... Excelsior playing now... It is indisputably modern, but rarely challenging. There is a crispness about Jazzanova... That Berlin edge? It's like they love Jazz but refuse to be retro-dated. Thinking people's Electronica? No flash in the pan beats or slick plastic pop here. The 'In the (Re)mix" lyric "And you wonder why it's takin' a fall?" seems to speak directly to this point. I've made a couple party CDs with it and the peeps just love it. "It's what we do... It's what we dooo". Groove on my friends.

A fine label mix by label mates of a very exciting label........2007-01-16

Funky German nu jazz superstars Jazzanova bring together a whopping collection of current Sonar Kollektiv tracks. There's something for everyone on here, from hip hop, to nu jazz, to soulful jazz, to tech house. It's a great representation of what this very diverse and superb label is cranking out these days. They have always been at the top of the nu jazz scene, as well as sneaking in all other types of genres into their repertoire. From their top vocal diva Clara Hill, to tech house monsters Âme, to their main staple artists over the years, Wahoo, Slope, Capital A, and Fat Freddy's Drop, Jazzanova manages to uniquely mold everything to the point that even the near misses work.

If you enjoy this, don't hesitate to seek out their 2004 mix called Mixing, as it's another superb mix of diverse and jazzy sounds.

nu jazz.......2007-04-03

Anyone who like any of Jazzanova's CD's will enjoy this. Buy the Secret Love CD's for a glimpse at their influence and direction. They have fabulous rythym and insight.

Wonderful surprise.......2006-03-23

I had never heard of this group until I ran accross a review of their music in a magazine I was reading. I decided to take a chance and...WOW! I loved it! Great music with a wonderful mix of jazz and R&B. I am definitly looking into buying more of their music.

The Vocals. The Beats. The Blank CD........2005-12-26

Great companion to their earlier Remixes CD. Terrific vocal performances. Beats that stay interesting. Change-ups that crackle with energy. All with a deep, chill attitude and unmistakeable groove.

But where Jazzanova really breaks new ground is the inclusion of a blank "DIY" CD-R. The accompanying text invites you to either: use that blank CD to rip a copy for a friend(!!!); or to go online, download some special Jazzanova tracks and burn 'em to the CD-R for yourself. Now that's cool...

"gran muestra de nuevo groove".......2005-07-13

Como es ya una costumbre jazzanova nos da una probadita mas de que en europa esta la batuta del electro mundial, nuevas tendencias, mezclas ricas en contenidos y no solo pasar de una pieza a otra, esta sesion es una gala de atrevido groove fuera de lo convencional. Se agradece el groove con toques jazzy, que jazzanova lo tiene ya muy estudiado, voces ya conocidas en producciones anteriores y algunos nuevos valuartes del sello sonar kollectiv o jcr, hacen de este cd otro proximo clasico el jazz-electro.

Excellent ... Buy in NOW .... !!!.......2005-02-14

Excellent Mix, brilliant track selection, Fantastic production & its jazzanova, some of the best acid jazz (i have heard in a loooong time) ... Do you need more reasons ?

A Long Walk by Jill Scott is fantastic ...

Jazzanova Top Themselves With a Stellar DJ Mix CD........2004-08-08

A mix of chilled jazz, nu soul, a dash of hip hop, live instruments, and some electro and retro grooves make up the salad bowl that is "Mixing" by Berlin's Jazzanova, a great selection of tunes for that last-minute get together. Jill Scott sets the tone with her "Touch of Jazz" mix of "A Long Walk" before we cruise through twin soulful gems "Can't Get Away (From Your Love)" by Carol Williams and "The Quest" by Attica Blues. Jazzanova throw into the set a couple grooves of their own, including the retro 80s feel of "Let Your Heart Be Free" and jazzy vibes of the percussion/horn-heavy "Dance the Dance." The tempo eventually simmers down with relaxing slow jams: the ambient "Try" by Sidsel Endersen and Bugge Wesseltoft and Georg Levin's "Let There Be Love." Filler-free and with no real duds, "Mixing" shows Jazzanova at the top of their game.

Mixing.... and remixing it's a five stars again..........2004-07-23

1)jill scott - a long walk
2)jazznova - l.o.v.e. beats
3)dimlite - sponsored by the alphabet
4)phoojun - rainbow
5)carol williams - can't get away
6)attica blues (feat r. robinson) - the quest
7)jazzanova feat nicola kramer, clara hill e g. levin - let your heart be free
8)jazznova - glow and glare
9)oba funke - uzoamaka (acappella)
10)deyampert feat clover from amraah 8 - held him first
11)jazzanova - dance the dance (at jazz remix)
12) bakura - thinking about (domu mix)
13)slope - mousse (get down mix)
14)bahamadia - uknowhowwedo (ski remix)
15) extended spirit - siding
16)sidsel endresen &bugge wesseltoft - try
17)george levin - let there be love
The people from Berlin again are here with a beautiful CD.
Starting from a pearl from JILL SCOTT (a cool r&b)coming to the last "sweet" from George Levin.
In the middle Attica Blues, Jazzanova and Bakura are the tops.
A little less than the others the second and third songs.
Strange to find in this Cd a song like TRY, but this is the job of the JAZZANOVA...put all togheter and mix and remix....at the end you probably get the five stars...
If you want dance and relax with r&b, and nu jazz this is for you.

Nowhere - Can I Go.......2007-06-21

I am already a fan of Jazzanova, AtJazz, and Viktor Duplaix so knowing they all had a had in Clara's followup to Restless Times made it an instant BUY for me. It is a really good cd and should not be slept on.

My current favorites are:

2. Nowhere - Can I Go (w/AtJazz - All I can say is 'Oh My'. It gave me shivers!! Kind of stays on repeat.)
5. Hard to Say (w/Slope - I'm liking Slope and I enjoyed driving with one on)
6. Paper Chase (w/Viktor Duplaix - Love his voice)
7. Just Paradise (w/Georg Levin)
8. Just Let Me Know (w/Tonee and Slope - Sweet n Sexy)

All in all this cd is simply beautiful.

Soulful & Contemplative.......2007-01-13

Definitely worth getting if you like Jazzanova, Vikter Duplaix, and George Levin. Another solid release from the Jazzanova camp....even better than her last release "Restless".

Loved it. Like A Funkier Donald Fagen Project.......2004-03-26

Georg manages to mix R&B structures with contemporary sounds and instrumentation along with Steely Dan-esque horns and yes, guitar solos. Love the chords he uses for the tunes. A few downtempo tunes, so not entirely correct to label this "Dance", but they are all pretty pleasant.

"Mrs. Superficial" is the only one I don't like. Doesn't fit with the rest of the set. Otherwise, it would have 5 stars from me.

Georg Levin debut cd.......2003-10-25

The cd on a whole was pretty well rounded...it has a few standout cuts like "In my car and the smash hit "somebody new".,bu there werent any other uptempo dance joints such as "Somebody New"(which also features Clara Hill on vocals.)I hope that the cd gets some shine as well as some remixes done soon.The vocals are smooth & might remind you a little bit of Vikter Duplaix.What makes this CD a worthy purchase is the tightness of the instruments.

Brilliant mix of old and new tech house........2006-12-22

The mix starts off with a techno sounding track that could have easily been made today, yet it was actually a computer programmed piece of electronica from the late 70's! That sets the tone for a stunning mixture of classic tunes, mixed effortlessly into some new tracks from 2006. This was the same theme in the first Mixing CD, mixed by Jazzanova, but gone are the nu jazz sounds and in flows a complete array of tech and deep house.

While the majority of the mix is filled with older stuff, you wouldn't know it by the groovy sounds and high quality tracks that Âme have selected. Standouts include where they play neearly the full length of Henrik Schwarz's remix of Coldcut's Walk a Mile in My Shoes, which is one of the best male vocal tracks this year, to a masterful and rare classic remix by Carl Craig of Jonny L's This Time, which then mixes into the brand new catchy track by Chateau Flight called Baroque.

There isn't a dull moment in this mix, and it's one of the most innovative and exciting mixes to come out this year. A do not miss!

One other note is that like the first Mixing CD, they come with stickers on the plastic case (peculiar that it's missing from this Amazon photo) which set against the solid cover, give it a nice, colorful touch. The only drawback is that if you crack the case, you will have to replace it with a normal one, and be left with the solid black cover like it's depicted here.

Great Intro CD.......2007-02-16

I've became familiar with Clara Hill via Jazzanova, my favorite nujazz/brokenbeat group. Both Jazzanova and Clara Hill are based in Germany. This is good music you will never hear on mainstream American radio. It's positive and I dig the vibes. I look forward to more from Jazzanova and Clara Hill

A little bird told me..........2005-06-09

I was on a road trip with some friends when I heard this playing in the car. My friend said, "I cant believe you havent heard of her!" Well, I hadnt, but I'm glad I did. The beats on this album are addictive, and Clara's voice is soothing and stimulating at the same time. I love the entire cd, but some of my faves (that get the most play on the iPod)are:

That Easy
Silent Distance
Here
I'm There
Morning Star

This is a great cd to listen to on a road trip (which I'm always on). I have also dug into her cuts with Jazzanova (who I love). This cd isnt so much a lounge cd as say Aya, but its a fantastic solo debut. Hard to categorize, but I wouldnt want to.

POSTSCRIPT: I meant to give it five stars but wasnt paying attention. This is a five star cd.

Delicious to the ears!.......2005-03-22

Glad she stepped out onto the stage and put her own project out. I was familiar with her through her work with Jazznova...but I didn't think, she'd make a project this superior. Just put it on and let the CD play...and I guarantee people will ask you who it is playing in the background. Never fails!

Excellent flow on this CD. You want some company to chill out or take a nice long ride to no where with, play this. If you want to take a leisurely bath and light some candles, but don't really want to put on something that will make you nod off..well this CD is hip enough to keep you awake, yet chilled enough to relax you.

This Cd came from nowhere!!!!!.......2004-07-13

Wow!!!! If you are into nu-jazz, nu-soul, broken beat, what have you, this cd has it. Ms. Hill creates atmosphere, and boy is there alot of atmosphere here. If your likes consist of The Rurals, Micatone, Beady Belle, or anything Sonar Kollektiv then this will be your cup of tea. Glad to see other people from Chicago into Clara.

easily my album of the year.......2004-07-07

Behind every great band should stand a great woman. It stands to reason then, that behind these six cats who make up the broken-beat-nujazz masters Jazzanova there would be six great women. However, in the case of Clara Hill it only takes one woman stepping to the forefront to even up the creative power between the sexes. Her name shouldn't be new to any fan of Jazzanova. She appeared on Jazzanova's "In Between" album as the vocalist on "No Use". Now she steps out from behind the scene with executive producers Jazzanova, for her full-length debut, "Restless Times". This CD is on constant rotation in my CD collection. Electronic and Nujazz headz, run and grab this one quickly.
