This is a part of my interview * on Jotta Patsiava’s ** Radio Show WDR 5 in Germany back in 2007 when my compilation ‘’Night & Day’’ released by Prominence Recordings.
Nu-jazz (sometimes electro-jazz) was coined in the late 1990s to refer to styles which combine jazz textures and sometimes jazz instrumentation with electronic music. Like the term electronica, nu jazz is a loosely defined umbrella musical style for acid jazz and swing to bebop and fusion. On the "Night & Day" compilation DJ Nova has gathered together a few of the top picks on his weekly radio show from the last couple of years, each one reflecting different options in the scene of contemporary nu-jazz, to create a modern aural landscape.
