2010. Norway
Nu-Jazz/Electronic
Jaga Jazzist is a norwegian multi-faceted and innovative jazz band, known to put together instruments and sounds from many different genres together into a modern jazz dressing with many other different flavours.
The band is also known for having a very flexible setup in which over more than 20 musicians have participated, incorporating and giving each effort a different feel.
So comes 2010 with the first of my own big yearly releases. One Armed Bandit is released no other than 5 years after the Post-rocky and less electronic What We Must. It comes with a bunch of rather long songs willing to continue breaking through in the guts of Jazz and music in general. Wide instrumentation as always, style variety and almost ambiguity (in a good sense) and of course zillions of things happening remain a constant of this fantastic and very unique band.
