De-Phazz & The Radio Big Band Frankfurt - "The Mambo
Craze"
De Phazz is a downtempo jazz ensemble integrating modern
turntablism and elements of soul, Latin, trip hop and drum and bass
into a lounge music sound. De Phazz is led by Pit Baumgartner, a
German producer who has varied the lineup of artists for every new
album. Some regular members are Barbara Lahr, Karl Frierson and Pat
Appleton. Since the release of Detunized Gravity and Godsdog, De
Phazz have appeared on the radar of listeners of equally innovative
and sample-driven jazz by the likes of Amon Tobin and The Cinematic
Orchestra. The band has released records on Mole Listening Pearls
and Universal Jazz Germany along with single releases on Edel
Records and United Recordings, and also remixes existing
material.The lyrics:- Why, Lucy, your eyes are filled with tears?-
