Scott Diaz Presents Otherside 002 - Jazz House

Описание: The ‘Otherside' mixes represent another side of what i’m about as a DJ and artist, showcasing styles that either I've been into for years but don't always get to play out, that have nods to genres that have influenced my sound and direction, or are perhaps just more obscure types of vibes that are geared more towards listening than dancing. As a DJ and music fan before anything else, and as a music collector and lover of such a broad range of music, it really made sense to curate these mixes in terms of mood and theme. I mix them completely live and a lot of the time I've never played the tracks before so it’s all new in terms of how I attempt to make it all flow. I also try not to play a record more than once in any episode of this series.

The theme for this edition is ‘jazz house’. There’s been an explosion of these jazz infused house records in recent years - some of it is made for the dancefloor and some of it is most definitely outside of those confines, but it’s an evolution which owes as much to crate-digging beatmakers like J Dilla and Pete Rock as much as any house producer.

I see this style as a synthesis of jazz, soul hip hop and lo-fi - often there’s wonky chords, squelching synths, loose beat programming and dusty vinyl-inspired aesthetics, and sometimes it doesn’t have any or all of those components but what ties it all together is that there’s always particular jazz leanings, or the clever use of jazz samples scattered throughout.
