The Django Experiment IV is the fourth in a series of recordings Wrembel in tribute to Reinhardt. The Django Experiment I & The Django Experiment II were released simultaneously in March of 2017 in conjunction with the Wrembel-produced Django A Gogo at Carnegie Hall to rave reviews for the CDs and the festival.
