BLUE NOTE BEACH CLASSICS PRESENTED BY JOSE PADILLA

The famed DJ of the ”chilled Ibiza sound” returns with a new compilation Blue Note Beach Classics Presented By Jose Padilla out now on the world famous jazz label Blue Note. Jose Padilla says “I do not consider myself a jazz expert; I’m just a Jazz lover. I believe that Jazz is a way of living, and I haven’t reached that point yet. What I like about Jazz is its diversity.”

“Every time I saw Blue Note compilations, I wished I could take part in such a project. Now thankfully I am able to show my respect and gratitude to this great label with my personal Blue Note compilation. Jazz is a part of my musical roots; it is a part of my journey and is still a part of my sets, both private & public.” José Padilla has gone from a poor barrio in Northern Spain, to a jet-set DJ lifestyle; performing in London, Paris, Monte-Carlo, Amsterdam, Miami, Italy, Moscow, Australia… and serving as a musical ambassador for the island of Ibiza.

Blue Note Beach Classics Presented By Jose Padilla is Jose’s 18th album release and is a stunning representation of modern ambient, jazz and breaks. This new compilation album featues tracks from French jazz pianist Michel Petrucciani to Oscar-and Grammy-winner Herbie Hancock.
