"Hipness is not a state of mind, its a fact of life…" Ladies and Gentleman, here comes the long awaited longplayer by one of the most favorite bands in the international clubjazz – scene of the last years. Eight tracks, no filler in sight, everyone has the quality for a timeless diamond. Guest appearances by Carolyn Leonhart, Katia B, Robert Smith and Terry Callier. It was absolutely a great honour to work with such blessed artists as Terry, Robert Smith, who runs his own orchestra for Caribbean Music in Hamburg, Katia B from Brazil and Carolyn Leonhart, background singer for mighty Steely Dan, showing her outstanding talent on "What Is Hip ?" and the Steely Dan cover "Do It Again". Paul Murphy, a fan from the first minute, is still writing some – hopefully nice - words about The Juju Orchestra's Bossa Nova Is Not A Crime to be included on the album. The rest is music.
