Social media blew up recently with footage showing Emma Noble debuting JazzCazz with her 10 piece band at Londons OMeara, causing Ramrocks switchboard to go into meltdown. But here is where the story begins.Jazzcazz is the musical lovechild of Jazz Funk, House and Rave DJ/promoter, Dan The Drum Spalding, dance music DJ/producer Ronnie Turner and DJ/chanteuse, Emma Noble. The inspiration for this 100bpm Jazzer was triggered by Dan and Emmas love for Coffees 1980 iconic disco cover of the original 1967 version of Casanova, sung by Ruby Andrews and penned by the mighty Jo Armstead, The ensuing trip down to Ronnie Turners studio brought the demo to life thanks to Ronnies masterful production and Dans deft arrangement. Their genius decision to add Emma Nobles exquisite vocal delivery was the absolute icing on the musical cake and with all the essential ingredients in place, JazzCazz was born. The result is a track that could easily have been released on Blue Note in the 60s and discovered by crate diggers in 2024. The trios cool, jazzy retro spin on Ruby and Coffees versions exudes timeless dance floor love – it’s definitely not all over, Casanova.
