Alfa Mist – Bring Backs

This one is popular in Jazz reddit at the moment. It is essentially background music with a hip hop influence. It is Muzak really, but with a sense of self importance.

I don't know that one.

Do you know the Hat releases from 90s, very strong

I recommend it. He's revisiting his own songs. Ellery Eskelin and Ray Anderson on the front line, neither of whom is a draw for me but they are very good here. 

I love those Hats. A great run.

I don't think I have ever seen these records. Are there any in the series that you recommend particularly?

Interesting. I've only listened to his music as Bayeté.
