Shades of Blue: Madlib Invades Blue Note

Album by Madlib

Shades of Blue: Madlib Invades Blue Note is a remix album by Madlib, released in 2003. On it he reworks archival jazz recordings into instrumental hip hop and beat-centred compositions that blend dusty jazz samples, off-kilter drum loops and textured production, and the release represents a phase in his career focused on exploring jazz sources within the early-2000s jazz–hip hop crossovers.
