Misty -The Jazz Jousters Meets Bob Brookmeyer

Misty – The Jazz Jousters Meets Bob Brookmeyer

The Jazz Jousters return with a follow up to their ‘Chet Baker Tribute EP’ as they have just completed Lab Off session #2 to showcase some of the group’s talent and love of Hip Hop Jazz and Jazz orientated music.

However, this time the Jousters are paying homage to the late great Bob Brookmeyer, and as a sample source they used his version of the classic ‘Misty’, which Bob (Valve Trombone) played alongside the likes of Stan Getz (tenor sax), Gary Burton (vibraphone), Herbie Hancock (piano), Ron Carter (bass) and Elvin Jones (drums), all of whom made up the ‘Bob Brookmeyer Sextet’ in 1964.



Once again we have a mix of talented international producers such as; Mr. Moods & Erik Jackson, Diligent Fingers, Skinnista, Joe Davies, DRTYDRDZ, Gadget, Elyon, Es-K, B 3 N B i & Blue Buttonz.

‘Misty’ also features vocals from Emma Louise, Gadget & Awakening Dawn on the closing track which makes this the first project to incorporate some of the vocal artists within the Millennium Jazz online community that is, The Jazz Jousters.

Slugga Tee - Passages From The Puddle

From the Millennium Jazz stable comes Slugga Tee and his solo E.P ‘Passages From The Puddle’ as with all of MJM’s material you know this is not just another boring release. Slugga combines the wit of the school reunion with painful topics such as custody battles and life’s struggles. Having built up his name with an abundance of features throughout the years, and a DJ Magazine sureshot single with his old crew 12” Matter he has now been rolling with the Millennium Jazz team and putting tracks out since 2009. Hailing from East Sussex, Slugga is a father, a rapper and possibly the craziest sane person in the game! creditsreleased 01 April 2012
