MODERN JAZZ & JAZZ FUSION

Post Reply New Topic

I love jazz and fusion. I love them due to their complexity, creativity and exploritivity. I feel that they symbolically describe the way my mind works: syncopated, busy, and complex. I feel that they are rather "aspergian" in that sense as well, though that is just the way i see it. Anyone else a lover of modern jazz or fusion??

I am a modern jazz person myself.

I too, I always Liked Jaco and Zappa...

I like Miles Davis, Especially his stuff from b*****s Brew to Agharta. Chicago Art Ensemble and Sun Ra, and Peter Brotzmann are really good as well.

I listin to some Jazz(Coltraine/davis) but probably not enough a lot of bands I like are heavly Jazz influenced like (later era) Talk Talk

I love jazz and fusion. I love the playfullness of jazz and the weird sounds of fusion. Fave bands & players: Alan Holdsworth, Ric Fierrabacci, Frank Gambale, Wes Montgomery, John Scofield, Bugge Wesseltoft(NORWEGIAN!! !), Oscar Peterson, John McLaughlin(No to mention his Mahavishnu Orchestra ). Oh I can go on for hours...

I'm a guitarist and I'm starting to unlock the keys to sounding obnoxious: Arpeggiating over extended chords and adding those chromatic notes. Fusion changed my playing style and personal "guitar voice" to the better!

Oh yeah! Poland is awesome, and I love Ohm! I have only been playing for 4 years so I'm probably nowhere near the level you're at skill-wise. Haven't heard anything from Henderson though, but the name rings a bell.
