Description

This composition is, of course, the signature tune of the Duke Ellington orchestra.
On this track I indulge my usual inclination to do something rebellious when playing jazz standards. There's House, Techno and Elektro beats pushing it forward and some crazy distorted guitar. It's a short track so I hope it leaves you wanting more! The magical riff is repeated on several instruments throughout the track.
This jazz standard is written by Billy Strayhorn that. It first appeared in 1939 so it is a testament to its timeless quality that I want to play it, and you want to listen to it, today
