Last week I had a very interesting conversation with Romeo Sandri, the mastermind behind the NuJazz project Jazzy Gentle.

Q: short bio?

Jazzy Gentle, side project by Romeo Sandri, producer and player (tenor saxophone, flute and electric pianos) with Acusmatic Group, looking for a future jazzy softness ..
After two trial remixes that were never published (Jazzanova and Femi Kuti remix for some remix-contests) here come the official productions, a remix for Acusmatic Group (my own nu-jazz, cinematic project) and one for Fromwood (electronic, breakbeats sicilian project).
The third remix (for Papik) is just out. All productions are published by Irma Records.

Andrzej Rejman is a musician and producer from Warsaw, Poland. he has a wide range of musical activities and i spoke to him about his conceptions and aims in music.

Q: short bio?

A: I’ve been playing piano since my childhood. I learned privately and did a lot of self-teaching. Fascinated by folklore, then rhythm&blues, rock and jazz rock fusion. From early years active by songwriting. First professional recordings at State Radio in Poland – popular songs for established performers (recorded still on a vinyl). Then active for film industry, documentaries, tv music and finally advertising. In the meantime setting up several jazz related, improvised/crossover rock-jazz-fusion music groups…

At present – living from doing music – mainly stock music, and some kind of ”environmental music” of ambient background - still exploring new areas – love to improvise to the motion picture/poetry/experimental dance – and just doing MUSIC. I feel myself as a MUSIC-MAKER. Always keen by using modern technology, (since ATARI ST) nowadays coming back to electro-acoustic living sounds.
