Jazz Trax 2024

low light mixes

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!
