“The Yesterday's New Quintet Angels”: west coast jazz at its best





I would like to introduce an amazing musical project to the music enthousiasts among you: the electronically influenced jazz sounds made by musical genius Madlib.


In 2001 Madlib broke new ground when he created the jazz/hip hop album “The Yesterday's New Quintet Angels”. 
The album was made by four musicians: Ahmad Miller, Monk Hughes, Malik Flavours and Madlib. Three of these names appeared to be fictional... 


A real West-coast flavored mix of jazz and hip-hop created in an experimental way.
Madlib continued producing other albums under these pseudonyms as well as under his own name Otis Jackson Jr.

In 2002 The Yesterday's New Quintet paid tribute to Stevie Wonder, remixing all Wonder's classics with an unmistakable YNQ-sound.

Later on he also paid a warm tribute to Weldon Irvine(2004) and to the Joe Mc Duphrey Experience.

All these musical scores are all really laid back and unique.
So prepare your ears for a relaxed trip when you listen to this music!
