A second volume of the Blue Note Re:imagined compilation has been announced featuring Swindle, Nubiyan Twist and more, and Ego Ella May's reimagining of Chico Hamilton's "The Morning Side Of Love" has been unveiled to accompany the news.
The first Blue Note Re:imagined compilation arrived in 2020, and today (8 June) the second volume has been announced with Ego Ella May's version of Chico Hamilton's "The Morning Side Of Love".
Blue Note Re:imagined II will also feature contributions from Swindle, Nubiyan Twist, Conor Albert, Oscar Jerome and Oscar #Worldpeace, Theon Cross, Reuben James, Cherise, Frank Moody and more.
Blue Note President Don Was said of the new compilation, "For more than eight decades the artists of Blue Note Records have continually pushed the envelope of contemporary music, and Blue Note Re:imagined II once again honors that legacy by letting the UK’s most creative young artists reinvent the treasures of the Blue Note catalog through their own lens."
