Any album that leans towards a more jazz rock (or, sometimes, even fusion) sound will be criticized by the jazz "purists"; not that they matter at all. Never heard of Motorpsycho but will check this out. Thanks.
I really like Brian Blade and the Fellowship albums.
I have listened to the following:
- Electric masada - At the mountains of madness
Someone on RYM called it "the modern bitches brew"; therefore, I had to check it out. A great album: very bombastic. (and, yes, it is reminiscient of bitches brew) 9/10
- Bohren & der Club of Gore - Sunset Mission
Only ever listened to when I am reading. Good for background playing but no strong feelings. Not a big fan of this genre of music. 5/10
- Bruno Pernadas - Those Who Throw Objects at the Crocodiles Will Be Asked to Retrieve Them
More elements of pop than jazz, however, it has enough jazzy elements to be considered a jazz-fusion album. Absolutely amazing album, especially great when taking a shower. 9/10
- Floating Points - Promises
TBH, I don't really remember much from this album. But I remember liking it. ?/10
Ego-Wrappin' on Spotify is one of my favorites, lots of great stuff coming out of Japan. Hip-Hop Jazz and Jazz Rap playlists on Spotify can also find some interesting songs
Jazz as a genre, to me, is about jazzing up. Taking something played before and playing the same thing completely differently. I've found a lot of excellent music by searching for jazz remixes. Like Nintendo jazz (gerudo valley jazz remixes for example) or studio ghibli jazz
