This year, like last year, I listened to more jazz than I have in a long time. It should come as no surprise that a lot of my listening tends towards atmospheric jazz. My favorite jazz record of the year, Nala Sinephro - Endlessness, definitely falls into that ambient jazz category. Or as a Pitchfork reviewer called in - Jazz, Not Jazz.
Here are my favorite jazz albums of 2024:
- Bill Laurance & Michael League - Keeping Company
- Charles Lloyd - The Sky Will Still Be There Tomorrow
- Dawn Richard & Spencer Zahn - Quiet in a World Full of Noise
- Eli Keszler - LIVE 2
- Emile Londonien - Inwards
- Flock - Flock II
- Fuubutsushi - Meridians
- Jasmine Myra - Rising
- Kika Sprangers - (In)finity
- Kinkajous - Nothing Will Disappear
- Nala Sinephro - Endlessness
- Prefuse 73 - New Strategies For Modern Crime Volume 1
- Shay Hazan - Wusul
- SHOLTO - Letting Go of Forever
- Slowly Rolling Camera - Silver Shadow
- The Bad Plus - Complex Emotions
- The Sorcerers - I Too Am a Stranger
- Total Blue - Total Blue
Not every album made into the mix plus I added a couple of tracks not on my album list. I hope you enjoy the jazz vibes. I'd love to know if listeners had any jazz favs from 2024. Leave a comment with some of you favorites.
Cheers!
