When it comes to 'Memorabilia', it's fair to say that Turbojazz has a great big box of impressive tracks over the years to rummage through for his new album.



DJ/Producer Turbojazz (aka Tommy Garofalo) and founder of Last Forever Records has expanded his 'Turbojazz & Friends' productions with this monster of ten track album that features one of Atjazz' favourite vocalist Rona Ray, the voice(s) that is/are Robert Owens, Javonnette, along with Doni Nichole, Veezo (remember 'Vezzions' - see review HERE), Broken One, cor.ese and Bad Colours.

Now you'd think that with all this variety of added talent, 'Memorabilia' would be a lot more random than it is as even Turbojazz with after burners on is still all about the dancefloor and the instrumental 'Summer Madnezz' only stands out as it's a really energetic groover with hi-frequency strings that's equal to 'The Joy' plus the Veezo collab, the jazzy piano led, 'It's Not Alright' (that's more than alright) and the unbroken, 'Lush Disco' with Broken One. 

We've mostly seen Turbojazz in his work will Foliage (with Sean McCabe et al) but 2026 'Memorabilia' has been set with this release - there's so much to this than 'The Joy': it's "more than an album — it's a message to the dance music world that culture lives on through those who carry it forward."

BTW: 'The Joy' has more than a passing resemblence to Jon Culter house classic, 'It's Yours' which is a massive recommendation in itself!

Meet a visionary of the next hip-hop instrumental generation called Veezo who has Veezions, a 5-track EP that's out today.



Turning up the Robert Glasper hip-hop heritage, jazz pianist and producer Veezo has gone totally wired (Ed. Isn't that a great cover photo?) and push it all into a house/disco/funk blender as if Madlib was in the chicken run and DJ Shadow wearing claret and blue in the East Stand.

'Kinky' sounds particulary "live" and fresh for a jazz background that we're told has been crafted into a "fully electronic live solo show" with synth, MPC and vocoder.

Clearly impressed the ears of Turbojazz and Parker Madicine this one to follow.
