"In 2010, Madlib launched an ambitious series of releases known as the Madlib Medicine Show, which allowed the prolific producer to release new material on a monthly basis. The series touched on all the genres Madlib digs, and that's just about any genre you can consider -- from jazz to rock, soul to disco, myriad African musics, Brazilian and reggae. The seventh entry in the series, High Jazz being an all-new Madlib jazz production. High Jazz, the name itself a tribute to the landmark jazz-fusion album released by Stanton Davis's Ghetto Mysticism in 1976, shows a marked development in Madlib's craft. Among the tracks on High Jazz you'll find collaborations with the extraordinary jazz/hip-hop drummer/ producer Karriem Riggins - together with Madlib as Jahari Masamba Unit; the debut of groups Generation Match, The Big Black Foot Band, and RMC, a Madlib, Riggins & James Poyser collab; and a fifteen-minute live piece by Yesterdays New Quintet (recorded at a secret show in 2000)."
