The Modern Sound Of Nicola Conte: Versions In Jazz Dub A long-overdue collection of all the mixes, side-projects, and rare "Nicola Conte version" tracks that have cropped up in the past decade or so -- work that's every bit as great as the material Conte includes on his own albums and singles! Nicola Conte's not a remixer -- he's a re-imaginer -- and when he sets out to serve up his own version of a track, he often starts from scratch -- using his own band, his own arrangements, and his own key elements -- all of which turn any projects for other artists into grooves that are very Conte-directed -- the kind of classic jazz-infused gems that Nicola's been laying down on his own Schema Records label for over a decade! This double-disc set is filled with amazing work that Conte's done for other folks -- and it also include a few rare and unreleased tracks under his own name as well -- a massive helping of music that's really mindblowing throughout -- sure to please any fan of Nicola, as well as anyone who digs the artists included in the package.
