RENEGADES OF JAZZ Vinyl & CDs

Review: Renegades Of Jazz is back with Sonic Verve and this time goes even deeper into the unique sound world he has cooked up under this alias. This is David Hanke's fifth album and on it he moves further away from his early swinging big-band breaks and instead on to darker brass band boogies inspired by everything from Afro-funk breakbeats to tropical delights. Pair that with an electronic style of jazz and guests such as Copenhagen-based multi-instrumentalist and producer Teis Ortved and you have another brilliant record that goes from the heart of the dancefloor to a more laid-back and late-night sound.
