Sampling is an Art ! To remake a new music from preexisting one requires certainly audacity and self-confidence. Jazz has been and remains a mine of gold for beat makers and producers. It s like Lavoisier’s Law, Nothing is lost everything changes. To transform a jazz standard to Hip Hop , changing the vibes, approaching it from a different view remains always a mind blowing process, especially when one recognizes the original tunes. Here is a small curation of five tunes with Robert Glasper paying tribute to The Legendary J Dilla and Bill Evans talking about the new audience of the Jazz Scene. Enjoy!
