This is a playlist of true Jazz.  Jazz has various characteristics and qualities, and these songs conform to them.  This list is not for songs of other genres posing as Jazz.  No Jazz poser songs.  Only original music is here.  As is proper for this genre, this playlist is curated to a significantly high minimum quality level.

Our entry in this list is slightly Fusionish, but the predominant parts and influence is old Jazz.  This shares characteristics of Jazz "standards" of years past, notably the presence of a "head" and a subsequent instrumental solo that significantly reflects the head, yet is true improvisation.  The majority of songs on this list are Modern Jazz.  In the photograph is one of history's very greatest Jazz musicians regardless of instrument:  John Coltrane.

Chapter 17 Interlude 1

Broke My Hand

"Ladies & Gentlemen, Welcome to the Annual General Meeting of the Dark Ocean Society" by Darkk Messiahs is a brooding journey into the depths of dark jazz and beats. Anchored by Sticks Thompson’s commanding drums and Wilt Flowers’ pulsating bass, the track is a rhythm-driven exploration, with Sonny Rhodes’ piano lines weaving elegant motifs through the sonic tapestry. Guy Stansfield’s clarinet and Blue Six’s trumpet add haunting melodies that rise and fall like waves, evoking a mysterious, oceanic atmosphere. This piece blurs the lines between groove and noir, delivering a cinematic experience drenched in shadow.

«'Inner Mountains' is somewhat the imp of a journey towards a higher and innermost place.
These mountains are the urge for exploration... where music can be a dimension of reunion, 
a state of togetherness, and where its own boundaries can always be rewritten.
'Inner Mountains' is an album that explores the idea of digging inward. 
to reach an upwards state through a constant, and not always in agree, dialogue 
of instruments.  It gives us this distinct sense of a mountain not to be risen but to be dug...»

THE URGE IN MOTION

There's more in life that we do not experience than that we do. 
But hey, you can't have it all.
Sometimes that's for the better.

[Rough English translation]
YOU CAN'T HAVE IT ALL
In the past i didn’t want to miss anything
Was eager to join in all things fun
If I had to choose, I could not decide
I’d rather divided myself in two 

For football, parties, music and friends
a week was really too short
when she fell in love with another
it only really dawned on me

You can’t have it all

Now so many years have passed
I see many people with a cross to bear
Who are suffering or have severly suffered
people without a future, without a home

because of illness, distress, violence and loss
they’re broken, tired out 
for us, my love, I praise the day
for us, my love, I speak of happiness

You can’t have it all

Still, i want my life to be in the fast lane 
Sure, that’s how i’m gonna do it
but without risking life and limb
and with guaranteed pension

You can’t have it all

＜Lyric＞

東京はもうすぐ  春予報
季節を決める  偉い人は話す
タクシーが空を飛んでゆく
小指に嵌めた   発明は光りだす

ネオンが点いたら  夜が来る
君と離れた人混みの街に
楽しみひとつ  この場所で　
こうして今日も  指輪が着信する

いつもの声　好きな仕草　
触れないホログラムでも
君の言葉　あどけなさも分かってる　

ねぇ、何百年も生きて行ける
この世界で何をしよう？
君とならば　二人ならば
同じような日々でいいよ


近頃の君は　沈んでる　
愛想笑い  僕にはお見通し
回線だけで繋ぐ愛　
こんな毎日　当たり前じゃなかった

非常事態　泣いちゃう君
涙も拭ってやれずに
君のことを  分かったような気になって 

ねぇ、逢いにゆくよ　この世界が
誰かの作品だとしても
未来よりも  大事なもの
君の身体　伝う温度

何百年も　生きて行ける
この世界で何をしよう？
君とならば　二人ならば
この手は冷たくはないよ

Calling

RCKT PWR - Montage

Oh man, I've been so excited to write this piece! This is a jazz arrangement (my first arrangement) of a piece called "The Merry-Go-Round of Life" by Joe Hisaishi (one of my favorite composers) written for Howl's Moving Castle (one of my favorite movies). I got to record a lot of people and I learned more about editing and writing, so it was a great experience. I love waltzes, especially jazz waltzes. This one was especially fun to arrange because some sections just fit perfectly in 5/4 time, so it was fun trying to create the right groove.

Performers:
Trumpet: Sergio Almanza and Jimmy Lucido
Guitar: Dallas Anderson (Instagram: @dallas_revived)
Bass: Edwin Santillan
Drumset: Dr. James Rennier
Soprano Saxophone: Thomas Bales
Alto Saxophone: Thomas Bales
Note: If you recorded and you would like a link added, let me know so I can fix that!

 Thomas Bales began playing saxophone as a fallback instrument after his dreams of playing flute were mortally crushed in sixth grade. Heartbroken, Thomas stumbled on to Jazz, a vile art form he had once sworn never to be mixed in. Now, it was his only comfort, and soon, he became dependent on it. Desperately, he tried to throw the accursed addiction, even joining a support group of fellow junkies, the Amarillo High School Jazz Band, and though he could go a few days without a hit, Jazz would call him back. He now wastes his time writing funky electronic music at a piano, while studying music theory at Amarillo College.
   
   Thomas now has been playing the saxophone for seven years, and improvises with Amarillo College Jazz Band. He also serves as the Amarillo College Vocal Jazz (The Conchords) vice president. He is an aspiring piano player and a much less aspiring flute player. Alright, maybe not a flute player at all. In his free time he enjoys board games, and video games, but not sports games. He is a huge fan of any indie game, especially the popular Gloomhaven and Hollow Knight.
    Thomas privately studies saxophone under Dr. Jim Laughlin at Amarillo College. Some of his favorite composers include: Christopher Larkin, Joe Hisaishi, Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, Claude Debussy, and Disasterpiece.
