Since they were founded in 1998, the Nighthawks have become a constant of Electro and Lounge Jazz. On their four albums - 'Citizen Wayne' (1998), 'Metro Bar' (2001), 'As the sun sets' (2004) und '_4' (2007) - Reiner Winterschladen (tp) and Dal Martino (b) have created classics of their genre.
Always close, but always ahead of the zeitgeist, all of their albums have played a role in German Jazz charts. 'Metro Bar' was even given the prestigious German Jazz Award. The Nighthawks have destilled the essence of many musical styles: Jazz, TripHop, Lounge, Chill and Electro.


Now Rüdiger Herzog of Herzog Records has cherry-picked a compilation he simply calls "Selection". 'Nighthawks - Selection' offers 64 minutes of entertainment in style for revelers - not only those out in bars, also for those who have good times in the comfort of their homes. The album opens with the light, bouncy theme song Nightflight, then celebrates some catchy tunes with the voice of Pat Appleton on Descend, Define the Day, and Receptions in Brazil. Managing the Beatles and Bar Next to the Roxy are cool classics, mixed with harder grooving tracks like Casino and Hard Night's Day. In between, there is the hot tempered piece Mañana, featuring Reiner Winterschladen, intriguing on trumpet - the instrument that has become the band's signature.
