    I love me some good old Ella Fitzgerald songs remixed! There have been countless remixes done of her songs in the past and I’m always interested in hearing more remixes. In compilations like the 4 volume Verve Remixed collection you’ll certainly discover some awesome Ella Fitzgeralad remixes. This is Air Mail Special a lesser known track from Ella’s back catalog. It’s part of the track list from Club Des Belugas album Zoo Zizaro. It’s not a remake or cover but a great remix. Club Des Belugas have taken the original Ella Fitzgerald version of Air Mail Special and have updated it made the song a lot livelier.

    I highly recommend anyone into Nu Jazz, lounge and cocktail music to check out Club Des Belugas.

  2. Midsummer Night Blues by Waldeck

    This is awesome … from the great electro swing revival/movement happening in Europe now comes a great track called Midsummer Night Blues by Waldeck. Midsummer Night Blues is off of his album Ballroom Stories. It’s an excellently made album utilizing sounds from the great swing and jazz era with many samples and of course mostly electronica and pop elements with updated production an Midsummer Night Blues samples elements of great Gershwin track Summertime sung by so many great folks. The version I have below is the version by Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. I felt that the music behind their version was the closest to the sampled sound from the Waldeck samples.

    I could be wrong but it felt like it’s the right version.
