In 2022 I reworked both of my early C120's, and removed thirty minutes of music from each. Making them an easier digestable - and just a better listening experience. Better sounding, better flow, better cover art and not too overlong... So I suggest you click on the link/cover underneath and check out that one instead:
-but you may disagree and the original is actually one of our most popular mixes ever, so the original is still available:
Jazz can be and mean
a great many different things - spiritual, intellectual, political,
relaxing, painful... you name it. Its also potentially full of
suspense, tension, action and horror which is why jazz has been used
to a great extent in film noir, thrillers, crime, giallo, cop-movies
to name a few genres. I don't know why film-makers abandoned the
perfect soundpalette to go along with moving images in favour of
pompous orchestral scores and seemingly random pop-songs, but I know
that they shouldn't have.
There's much
greatness hidden in mostly obscure soundtracks and even more obscure
production/library records - and from countless hours of excellence
I've compiled 2x60 minutes of tunes in all kinds of moods, approaches and genres really, but still pretty much jazz in one way or another.
