old - new

























AJK did a fantastic job in remixing Louis Armstrong songs.
adding some echoing effects and hip hop drum line,
really changed the mood and feel of the music.
a very good mash up b/w jazz and hip hop, old school to new school.
I just dled his other remix with Miles Davis songs.
i'll start listenin to it while i do my research for my 3920..
