I want to listen to more of this genre but I don't even know what it is called..
I tried labeling it as jazz but that sounds kind of different.. |
"jazz" includes Benny Goodman Big Band, Thelonius Monk weirdness, New Orleans blue jazz, ragtime waltzes, bebop, etc. Frank Sinatra sung jazz, so did Doris Day. Its almost like saying "rock" - the label communicates very little. Music that uses blue notes, improvisation, polyrhythms, syncopation, and swung notes (to borrow from Wiki).
I'd probably call this "funk" jazz or "electronica" jazz... but that's probably a religious discussion.
