Not especially, no, but I bet Brad and Whiney would love it.

Maybe this is a better thread to talk about JD Beck and DOMI than the jazz thread. I love this interview, it makes me like the album even more knowing that they recorded and mixed it themselves on cheap gear (just an overhead and a kick mic for the drums, which is one more mic than Louis Cole sometimes uses).

Apparently some people don't like it, but I'll take the dry, super saturated & compressed "treat it like a sample" approach over the boring close mic'ed and stereo separated sound any day.

That's a good piece. Gendel has an album coming out in February or March that's all covers of 90s R&B songs.

I've been listening to the Tom Misch/Yussef Dayes record lately and it's definitely not in the jazz school dorks playing speed fusion category at all. More at the crossroads of trip hop/smooth jazz/neo soul. Good beats, good sounding album, slightly corny vocals.

OTOH, more in the vein of this thread, I get instantly irritated every time anything with Scary Pockets pops up in my feed, and I'm never pleasantly surprised.

I don't know where else to put this, but I get annoyed by all the Rick Beato videos that youtube is trying to get me to watch. I liked his Keith Jarrett video and a couple others, but it seems like he's cornered the market for rockist content.
(agreed on both counts btw)

his breakdowns of classic songs are great, every time he shares his opinion on anything = dud
he actively refuses to understand the genre conventions of rap, electronic, reggaeton, etc

I make fun of his "quick lesson" videos a lot. To myself, mentally, I guess. Because he's like "Quick lesson: I like to use the e phrygian against a c# minor chord second inversion when it's the dominant to create a sense of space" and then it's the same lame synth pad he has in every video and it sounds exactly like every other video.

This is the Misch/Dayes track that's sticking with me most so far:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXZgKnKs48M

That's the one I liked best too upon listening to it yesterday

ha yes. he insulted the new (mediocre) drake single during a recent video, then made a video about how he'd remix the song and made it much much worse
