Releases from artist / Veröffentlichungen von : Jihad Muhammad

strong new jersey house with a jazz twist, rich live instrumentation and hip spoken words

ny/nj house producer jihad muhammad, whos previously had releases on west end records, easy street and iwanai out of canada, bestows us with a very special 3 song instrumental ep, 2 of which can be found on this october 2007 sampler. the piano mix of ascension is a gorgeous 124.5 bpm affair with plenty of plucky strings, a deep but not heavy balearic kick & bass drum, bouncy bassline, intermittent synth, & distinctive jazzy piano riffs that ll get the head nodding and hips swaying. expansions is another lovely instrumental but with more of an afro cuban percussive production whle keeping all of the dreamy piano chords and riffs intact and alive. feel the flow and head for the dancefloor…

from one of the best producers in the business. asante records is proud to release jihad muhammads the rush. with the deep jazzy versions of the main and the dub mix that has been supported by some of the heavy weights in the industry from japan, europe, south africa and the us, this classic track comes with a new deep, jazzy, soulful and yet techy remix called roots urban jazz remix to grace it.

incl. dj spinna remix, dj support from ralf gum, mikki afflick, terry hunter

there are few labels who will get the opportunity to work extensively with the most dynamic remixers, dj s and producers of this decade. bbe seems to keep coming up trumps. grammy award winner louie vega has been on top of the dj game for over 2 decades. he gained further notoriety as part of the collective known as ‘masters at work’ with kenny gonzalez form a formidable partnership reminiscent of the greatest producers of yesteryear. quincy did it with chaka khan, james ingram, al jarreau and the brothers johnson, while gamble and huff did it with archie bell and the drells, harold melvin and the bluenotes, teddy pendergrass and mfsb.
