Dancefloor Jazz

Profile:

The Mojo Club is a music club and live venue in Hamburg, located on the city’s famous Reeperbahn. The Mojo Club's most important exports were its music compilations, which were released on CD and vinyl from 1992. Since the first edition, the samplers of soul, jazz, bossa nova, disco and funk compiled by Oliver Korthals have enjoyed great popularity.

Dancefloor Jazz 1992-2008
The record label Universal Records released a sampler series entitled Mojo Club Presents Dancefloor Jazz, of which a total of twelve volumes were released between 1992 and 2005; volume 13 was released by Edel Records in 2008. In 2013, the Mojo Club Presents Dancefloor Jazz compilations were re-released by Universal as a limited vinyl edition. The concert recording "Joyce Live at the Mojo Club" can be musically classified as a dancefloor jazz release.

Electric Mojo, Remix Albums 1997-2008
The two series Electric Mojo and The Remix Album, as well as the recordings by Michael Sauer, Pulser SG and Rogue Soul can be allocated to the breakbeat-oriented club series Electric Mojo.

The Mojo Club Sessions - from 2014
This series, released in cooperation with Edel Records, features purely analogue recordings. From the microphones to the recording on Studer or Nagra tape machines, to the mastering and cutting of the music signal into the lacquer film, digital aids are dispensed with. The recordings for this series are mixed directly onto the two stereo tracks on location and during the creation of the music from up to 18 channels. They are released on record only.
