Verve Remixed

The idea of reworking a “classic” for the club isn’t new and for every success, there’s a trail of horrendous failures but Verve Remixed is a rare example where the concept truly sings. Originally released in 2002, the series brought together top-tier selectors and producers to reimagine gems from the Verve vaults. Now on vinyl for the first time in over 20 years you can no-doubt expect to hear favourites from Nina Simone, Billie Holiday, and Astrud Gilberto reinvented by the likes of Thievery Corporation, Tricky and Aotearoa's own Mark de Clive-Lowe at your next record-bar outing. - Flying Out

The Verve Remixed volume debuted in 2002, its concept – inviting top DJs and producers to select songs from the label’s storied vaults – was an instant success, introducing classic jazz recordings to a new generation of listeners and kickstarting a global trend of jazz-electronic fusion. 

Now back on vinyl for the first time in 20 years, with the series’ inaugural project Verve Remixed we hear what happens when Master’s at Work meet Nina Simone, and Dzihan and Kamien take on Billie Holiday. Experience the interpretations of renowned remixers with this refreshed physical format.
