Most people I've run across who say they like jazz do not like music by contemporary musicians who consider themselves to create jazz. Jazz right now is wildly diverse but overall pretty weird, pretty electronic, very sonically influenced by hip hop, metal, and pop. Lotta sampling, drum machines, even autotune.

This sounds interesting, have any artist recommendations?

A random sampling - Thundercat, Louis Cole / Knower, MonoNeon, Nate Smith, Vulfpeck, GoGo Penguin, Snarky Puppy

Interested in other recommendations too!

Robert Glasper, Esperanza Spalding, Shubh Saran, Tigran Hamasyan fit in that crowd too.

I just discovered Slip by Shubh Saran — wow, what an interesting and unique song. I’ll definitely check out these other recommendations, thank you!
