National recording jazz keyboardist and NAACP Image Award nominee Marcus Johnson has joined forces with Young Pulse (of the European group SoFresh Squad and creator of the French remix of Soulja Boy’s “Crank That”) to release FLO Chill: Volume 2. Young Pulse, a smooth urban European producer, journeyed across the Atlantic to join Marcus Johnson, one of the best and brightest contributors to the American contemporary jazz scene to form Juris, a play off on Johnson’s study of law at Georgetown University. This dynamic collaborative effort demonstrates that Juris is ready to raise the bar on the electronic/jazz fusion scene with a brightly hued collection that combines a soulful hypnotic chill with a seductive lounge club pulse. FLO Chill: Volume 2 is an insightful futuristic musical experience. Standout songs are the infectious Summertime, the tantalizing Fancy, and the mesmerizing Eiffel Tower. These tracks set the tone for the CD with a trip-hop edginess that meets a jazzy smoothness while Marcus Johnson on piano laces the electronic grooves. The mellow and exhilarating essence that is Marcus Johnson continues to resonate in his latest collection as it joins its predecessors on its swift ascent up the Billboard charts. FLO Chill: Volume 2 joins the Billboard Top 15 Contemporary Jazz FLO™ series, which was introduced in September 2008. The series consists of: FLO™: Chill (#7), FLO™: Romance, (#7) and FLO™: Standards (#2).
