Originally released in 2005, J.A.C. marked a new chapter for Vienna’s downtempo legends, Tosca. Dedicated to the birth of Richard Dorfmeister and Rupert Huber’s sons (Joshua, Arthur, and Conrad), J.A.C. is an album that blends funk, lounge, jazz, and subtle electronics in classic Tosca fashion. This remastered edition captures the duo in more playful spirit than their earlier work, inviting a full live band and contributions from Earl Zinger, MC Farda P, and Graf Hadik. - Flying Out
The downtempo legacy of Tosca continues. Originally released in 2005, J.A.C. is the fourth studio album by the Austrian duo - an album dedicated to their then newly born sons, “Joshua, Arthur, Conrad”. For its 20th anniversary, which also marks !K7's 40th anniversary, it has been fully remastered and compiled into a beautiful gatefold 2LP.
Between the release of their classic Dehli 9 and J.A.C., the two entered fatherhood. As all Tosca albums relate to biographic events in the life of Huber and Dorfmeister, the birth of their sons naturally called for an album dedication. J.A.C. is perhaps the most consistent formulation of both, the carefree and melancholic sound of Tosca.
The melodies quicken, the grooves are funky and laidback and the variety of musical styles are marked by a wide choice. Additionally, from 2003 onwards, Tosca became a full band, with live debuts by the side of the likes of Earl Zinger, MC Farda P (Rockers Hi-Fi) and Graf Hadik.
It's this new found live experience and the increased interest in the digitally untouched sound of real instruments that marks the character of this landmark Tosca album the most, besides the characteristic Tosca mood.
