PRODUCT DETAILS

City Jazz is a collection of re-imagined Japanese and Cantonese classics by supergroup 4te!. 4te! utilizes jazz fusion sonic styling and creative arrangements to breathe new life and wonder into these iconic tracks, making a release that is accessible to casual listeners and even the most discerning aficionado of the genre. The album is a testament to the skilled technical ability and creative prowess of its seasoned musicians and features standout tracks “Plastic Love”, “Hana”, “Tantalizing” and more. As KRIZ B notes, “it’s always a big challenge and not as easy as it would seem, re-imagining these well-loved classics; my task is to spin it 180 degrees yet maintain the melody and the spirit of the song.” City Jazz will be released by evosound on the 16th of September and will be available in MQA-CD; MQA-CD plays on all CD players. When a conventional CD player is connected to an MQA-enabled device, the CD will reveal the original master quality.
