about

Dive deep into the sonic evolution with Jazz Mafia's Orchestral Explorations series, where we defy genres and redefine the boundaries of Alt. Hip-Hop in Vol. 2. Collaborating with our partner in crime, Dublin (from the Shotgun Wedding Quintet), this is a journey that defies the norms. Warning: This is not your Daddy’s Hip-Hop!
The 20-piece Realistic Orchestra becomes the canvas for our experimentation. We're not just pushing boundaries; we're giving you something to grip onto. It's a delicate dance between avant-garde and groove. Imagine a symphony that incorporates not only the expected but also ventures into uncharted territory — samples, electronics, and the mesmerizing violinistry of Shaina E.
Every note, every beat, and every electronic pulse has been meticulously crafted by Jazz Mafia co-founders Adam Theis and Eric Garland. This isn't just music; it's a commitment to the risk-taking tradition of Jazz, a torchbearer of Bay Area culture, now unfurling its wings to captivate the world.
Get ready to experience an orchestra that's not afraid to break the mold, a sonic escapade that carries the spirit of Jazz Mafia's audacious legacy. It's not just music; it's an invitation to join us on the edge where tradition meets the avant-garde.
