I'm excited to share a mix of some of the best contemporary jazz releases from 2022, clocking in at just over 75 minutes. These tracks are mostly instrumentals and showcase the incredible musicianship of these talented artists. The mix features a mix of both familiar favorites of mine and new discoveries, with 95% of the tracks played in full and tastefully blended together with subtle fade-ins and outs. The tempos range from chill to jumpy throughout the mix, so it's probably not one to just sit back and zone out to. But it's perfect for an energizing Sunday afternoon. Enjoy!

Contemporary Jazz Mix - Best of 2022

In this Episode, we take a look at how jazz musicians can use popular rock songs and transform them into great improvisational vehicles or create interesting arrangements from these familiar melodies. Enjoy!
