Hey /mu/, is there such a thing as jazz that is relaxing and calming and soothing?
If so, please recommend me some.
>pic is just for attention
I'm totally serious. Don't dismiss this album just because memes. It might not be excellent or a masterpiece, as most drones would call it, but it has its moments.

Also, search for cool jazz. Bill Evans, Ben Webster, early Davis, Gill Evans, Jim Hall, Chet Baker, list goes on
The Breathing Effect - Mars is a very bad place for love

>>64535206
you must not listen to much jazz
Jazz can be many things, lots of it is frantic and unnerving
Cool Jazz is the "stereotypical" smooth and relaxing type
early hines solo piano is my go-to comfy shit

thanks guys, I'll be listening to this stuff when I get really anxious or stressed out, which has been often lately...
off topic from the thread, but:
What jazz albums/musicians feature insane drum solos, I am looking for balls to the wall mad drum solos, and drumming in general.

This is that song from Whiplash, but typically will always have a killer drum solo.

Can't go wrong with buddy rich

That other nigga that replied to you knows jack shit about drum solos.
Listen to anything by Tony Williams, Elvin Jones, Eric Harland, Jack DeJohnette, Mark Guilliana, Brian Blade, Chris Dave (with Glasper Trio and in the 90s, not with Mint Condition)
That'll give you a solid place to start. Tony is king. Anyone who says buddy rich is isn't a drummer (and if they are, they're fucking noobs who haven't dived into the rabbit hole yet)

Next time ask for someone who plays the instrument for reqs. They usually know what's up. That guy obviously isn't one of us.
