None of these tunes could have been made any time before 2010, and all are clearly jazz (or at least heavily inspired by Jazz). With R&B, (Neo-)Soul, and other jazz forms re-emerging in pop music, Jazz remains the source of much of modern musical innovation.
- etangent 10y agoThat's an excellent playlist there, thank you.
- smnplk 10y agoi like the songs, but to me it still looks like there is no innovation going on there. Just repackaging of old themes using new (digital) instruments. I think nothing comes close to Alan Holdsworth in terms of innovation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXSd-WyrtfA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXSd-WyrtfA

- edejong 10y agoI just listened to the first song, and it doesn't seem that new: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZvAsVj4IJg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZvAsVj4IJg
- 21echoes 10y agowell maybe listen to more than one ;D I included that one as an example of how artists are merging instrumental hip hop back in with Jazz; there's plenty of other styles of Jazz in the list! You're right that a global statement of "couldn't have been made before 2010" for the whole list was a bit over the top.
