Jazz Montez is a music collective from Frankfurt, Germany dedicated to spreading the gospel of jazz throughout the universe. To them, jazz does not describe a particular style of music but an attitude, mindset and an approach to art and life that can manifest itself in a variety of ways. For their first vinyl release, they invited seven of the most talented and ambitious young groups from all over Germany to Frankfurt to record a track in the renowned studio Lotte Lindenberg. Despite the band's various influences, ranging from classic jazz, Afrobeat and funk to hip-hop, electronic music and rock, Jazz Montez Presents Vol. I, mixed in its entirety by drum & bass legend Kabuki, works as a cohesive album. Features Marko Mebus Quintett, Conic Rose, Moses Yoofee Trio, Bokoya, Wanubalé, Linntett, Laura Totenhagen, Blue Lion, Lina Knörr, and Tony Lakatos. Includes a 20-page booklet that includes a comic on the making of the album, texts by and information on the participating musicians, an interview with the sound engineers and an essay on the contemporary relevance of jazz. 180 gram vinyl; eco-friendly bagasse gatefold cover designed by artist Clara Sipf.
