Holy shit. I want more. Anything else like this that is jazz but is actually coherent with virtuoso playing?
I can play jazz.

I have never heard this album.However everytime I see >Japanese guy and >jazz I feel compelled to post this album
Here's a trio album (with a Japanese bassist)
>>128249114not sure what's coherent about the shittiest double bass playing ever conceived but im glad you enjoyed it
>>128249114
>>128249257Based. Good review, but even a 5/10 is slightly generous.
>>128257957>>128257834>rope :I>your neck :)
>>128249114>I'm you but stronger
>>128249257Japan, thingfags... it's over.
>>128249257>cool jazz, post-bopit's neither of those things but ok. i thought the one thing RYM could be counted on was being excessively analytical about genres to the point of autism. they can't even be trusted on that front any longer.
>>128259325I just like how it sounds sometimes and that album is average. :)
>>128259325ok now type this without being mad
>>128259376;)
>>128259325>NOOOOOOO JAPAN GUY IS PLAYING NIGGERINO MUSIC THEY'RE NOT BROWN ENOUGHTete Montoliu was white, retard.
Every decade or so, a decent but derivative jazz album gets mainstream appeal among posers, usually the "sophisticated bachelor pad" weirdos who can only interact with jazz music in a shallow, superficial manner. It's a phenomenon as boring as it is predictable. No one will remember this album in 5-10 years when the next one replaces it.
>>128255347hiromi is far too technical for fukui fans who only want "vibes". she literally expresses too many ideas/emotions for these assembly-line automatons
>>128255347based. Where Do You Start is a great song, I would've thought it was Bill Evans without looking
>>128259398kwab
>>128249221>instantly>years later
>>128249257Ok but when is he gonna review the aesthetic cover tho
>>128260802;)
>>128249257It's crazy how for generations, jazz fans and even musicians would openly call legends out for not being to their taste. I've seen many conversations where people with loads of civility will call anyone from Coltrane to Monk "overrated". But the moment you say that about some random zoomer icon like Ryo, it's incessant temper tantrums and the like. Maybe they're just a fragile, entitled generation.
>>128260929>millennial calling anyone out for being fragile and entitledPeople laughing at your autism is not throwing temper tantrums. Reflect
>>128260969im not a burger so it evens out quite nicely for me. cool ad hom argument by the way, so concession accepted.
>>128260990Facts are not ad homs, autist. Learn the meaning of words
>>128261012>no argument>no logic>just spam the word fact and hope no one noticesConcession accepted
>>128261043Not what "spam" means, you're embarassing lmao
>>128255347which albums?>>128260969zoomers make millienalis look like war heroes by comparison, that's how pathetic they are. sorry for inflaming your already elevated suicide rate, zoom-zoom
>>128258326that album is much better than scenery, so you're not missing out on very much. early summer is a decent song with a nice drum solo though, the rest of the album is pleasant but very forgettable unless it is literally the first jazz album you have heard
>still no argument>still no logic
Why do amerimutts hate japan or anything asian related thing?
>>128261409burgers love japan, not the rest of asia though
>>128261409I'm a huge weeb but this album is mediocre algorithmcore
>>128249114Just listen to Bill Evans nigga
>>128249257Honestly a good review, I always felt the album was a little too derivative, but it's not a bad album.
>>128260929it's just young people anon. they havent developed enough to realise that not everyone likes the same thing and that disliking something that they like is not a personal attack.
>>128261832young people used to like jazz though
>>128249114damn this board is filled with fucking normies. good job for following the youtube algorithm you fucking braindead monkeycunt retard.
>>128261845did you know that even amongst young people, not everyone likes the same thing? some of them like jazz and some dont. if that werent the case new artists like kasami washington or hiromis sonicwonder are able to thrive. whether you like them or not is neither here nore there. regardless ive never noticed an abundance of jazz fans on /mu/ and ive been using this site on and off since the 2000s.
>>128261330Millennials have higher suicide rates though, LMAO
The whole reason why the album is good is because it's predictable and simple for jazzIt's the kind of thing I can put on for people who don't like jazz or find most jazz too hard to listen toIt's also very japanese in feel, and paints japanese "scenery" wellAs a jazz album it's average or slightly below, but as music it has a niche it fills wellI don't know what you'd search to find more japanese-pleb-cafe-core
>>128261330>cant even spellrofl
>>128261983>explains why the album is bad>"and that's why it's le actually le good"
>>128261951im talking about young people from like 80 years ago, anon. regardless, what on earth does your comment have to do with my argument
>>128261983>It's also very japanese in feelit's actually not japanese sounding at all and is clearly american in feel. dude is clearly ripping off bill evans and barry harris, which would be fine if he could do literally anything else as well
>>128261054You can't accuse someone of autism and then pull pedantic grammar nazi antics unless you're trying to look like a hypocritical retard on purpose.
>>128262103>somehow manages to misunderstand a simple post>quotes inside of greentextretard>>128262163I didn't mean he's copying japanese musical styles, I'm saying he's painting very japanese picture with his playing in a number of placesYou definitely get a "sapporo" feeling in a bunch of places on the album, particularly on "early summer"You'd have to go to understand what I'm talking about, and it's not really that remarkable anyway
>>128262176>doesn't even know what grammar meansKEK
>>128262383exhibit D
>>128262842You mistook semantics with grammar, you're fucking retarded rofl
>>128262345you want to sound smart so bad
>>128262854i've been gone for an hour and you responded in 44 seconds. Literal autism
>>128262951>too retarded to know about thread notifications as wellKEEEEEEEEEK
>>128262999no, that's another strawman, you're just clearly mad and alone and i find that amusing.>>128262345i see what you're saying, and maybe that's why tourists like it so much. it's less an accurate representation of good jazz and more an accurate representation of japanese sensibilities. still, there's literally thousands of better japanese jazz albums that do the exact same thing but better
>>128263041>Doesn't know what strawman meansDefinitely a case of mental illness gone wrong. I question how you even function in society
would you two fagwheels get a room?
>>128249114There are no virtuosos on this album so I don't understand the question. >>128252164Kek
>>128263041you want to sound smart so bad
>>128263096As long as the room has a gas chamber
Jazz threads with people who don't even like jazz are always such pathetic shitholes. Just admit you faggots are insecure about your taste and go back to your ost and meal generals. Or better yet, just go back in general.
>>128261330You will never be young again, you are old, everyone around you is slowly dying
>>128263187You will never be smart and you will never live with a woman who isn't mommy.
>>128263214You can cope all you want. But this does not reverse the inevitable process of aging. You are not able to accept that you are growing old, you haven't been able to build a family due to your hedonism, likely do not have a wife and death is rapidly approaching. All you can do is seethe about those younger than you on a dead website which is a shadow of it's former self and has none of the impact it used to have, all because you desperately want to relive your glory days of sitting in front of a computer screen. You will never have the opportunity to reverse the choices you made as it is too late. Your miserable state of being is going to continue until you leave this world.
>>128263214Guess he hit a nerve lmfao
>>128263248>>128263268famesag
>>128263318cry more rofl
>>128263248didnt read, cope
>>128263418Whatever helps you cope with aging, anon. I know it's hard for you.
>>128263468its gonna be your turn sooner than you are gonna be comfortable with
>>128263496Zoomers are gonna hit the wall so bad it won't even be funny for people like me. They already listen to sad moody crap all the time, they're practically training their subconscious to buy rope
>>128263505Considering your posts, millennials are having it far worse than zoomers will ever have. Lol
>>128263496It's going to happen to everyone, but you are even more pathetic in your display than any other generation in history.
>>128263505>>128263496Zoomers are realizing that being childless is actually gay and retarded. So they will likely never be in the same position as you. They'll grow old surrounded by family. You will die as a burden on your family because you fell for a meme, sucks to be you I guess.
>>128263524This, they don't even realize how fucking embarassing they are lmfao
>>128263542To correct your post>Die being a burden on any living relatives, dead parents and no children to care for
>>128258995because this was so funny the previous 40 times
who knew an album only zoomers like would devolve into inter-generational culture wars. shocking. this NEVER happens.
>>128263496i think most of them are too retarded to process basic concepts like aging or numbers. on their death bed they'll be all "literally about to be on god's doorsteps ong"
>>128263649Clearly you are unable to process it as you seem to be bitching about young people on a cartoon forum which hasnt been relevant in a decade
>>128263649Proving his point by continuing this pathetic samefag. You're pushing 40, grow up.
>>128263542no one wants to date them though, they are in for an even ruder awakening
>>128249257Fukuisisters......our response?
>>128263693>Young women don't want to date men their age, they want to date balding gentlemen like ME
>>128263693Considering you are childless, guess you already got that awakening?
>>128263693Because people on cartoon forums are experts on the tastes of young women, lmao
>>128259209Autism is wasted on autists
>>128263733well they do, but that makes them also retarded and besides the argument
>>128263770How many women under 24 have you spoken to?
>>128263774In my entire life? Thousands considering I used to work in university archives and work as an R.A. You?
>>128263814In the last 5 years, retard. Learn to follow a conversation
>>128263748>>128263756do you two live under the same lo-fi beats to study to rock? google "gen z not having sex" to see millions of videos/articles/stats about how sexless and childless that generation is
>>128263814Millennials must have gotten some type of generation wide special ed, holy shit lmao
>>128263829And how many children do you have?
>>128263827>dodges the questiontypical. a generation of cowards. anyway, I win. cope.
>>128263829Not being hedonistic sex addicts and saving your virginity for a wife is not a bad thing
>>128263849Millennials are a generation of soulless hylics. They live on hedonism and cannot imagine life without it
>>128255450You're trans btw
>>128263844So you spoke with 0 women under 24 in the last 5 years, why should we trust your opinion on what younger women like?
>>128263844>I win. cope.The words of an actual adult man, millennials are a joke
>>128249114Everyone who likes this album is a retard, therefore I don't like it. Simple as
Aw sweet millennial melty thread
>>128249132guitar isn't jazzunless it's bass guitar but fingers only, no pick
>>128263874I doubt anyone replying to them is actually a zoomer. More likely it's millennials baiting other, even more retarded millennials.
>>128263888probably this. it's almost 10pm, zoomers aren't even awake yet
>>128263888Wouldnt be surprised, as a gen Xer its funny as shit seeing millennials grow old and pathetic
>>128263900Not everyone lives in the same country you do, tard
>still dodges the question
>admits to being an old man projecting his own feelings on young girls
>>128263904>so new he hasn't even seen timezone posting threads
>>128263934nah blud 2020 oldfag supreme
I see /jazz/ is getting along just fine without me. Carry on, gents.
>>128263902>the oldest millennial is 44damn that explains all the weird mid life crises posting, i knew it couldnt be just covid or orange man le badgens z and alpha will be even funnier, i reckon
>>128263849people who actually want to save monogamy and marriage still have girlfriends and participate in courtship, not virtue signaling on basket weaving forums
>>128264261The idea of a girlfriend is antithetical to monogamy you dumb cunt
>>128249114theres this one retarded indian zoomer youtuber with the iconic broccoli hair and everything who loves this album. never heard it but he likes it so it's probably fucking dogwater
>>128264323thats literally propaganda but enjoy your MSNBC narrative i guess
>>128249114I googled the album and the most pretentious white boi I've ever seen popped up, therefore, into the trash it goes. Cool art though.
>>128264382most people treat most music as fashion accessories, jazz is no exception, especially thing japan jazz
>>128264323literal retard lmao. not that you've ever had one
If there's any Gen X in this thread who sucks more? Millennials or Zoomers?this shit flinging thread is funny
>>128264743Millennials for now but zoomers will be worse when they are 35-45.
What are some good Japanese bop albums?
Why are zoomies even on 4chan in the first place? Don't you have your own little spaces to be faggots in?
>>128266075The better question is why is any older than zoomers on here? Shouldn't you have done something with your life by now?
>>128263605Now I'll definitely post it every time I see Scenery.
>>128264466>>128264368Retards, you get a wife, not a girlfriend. A girlfriend is temporary by definition
>>128249114bump
>>128249257>>128259631>>128261705Derivative music is okay if it attains the heights of what it's trying to achieve. Scenery does just that. What jazzfags fail to recognize is that: 1. sticking to the core of a genre is always a derivative thing to do, no matter what genre 2. After the development of free jazz and new instruments (after the 19600s), virtually everything using the classic instruments and methods is by definition derivative, since countless new avenues opened up for (jazz) music.
>>128266939you have never dated a woman and you never will
>>128270561couldnt even tackle a single argument from the review and just made vague, unspecific wikipedia comments lmao
>>128266397>why do oldfags come to a site started by oldfagswow anon, such a deep mystery you have on your hands there
>>128271123The central point is that his playing is derivative of Bill Evans and McCoy Tyner. But there is no non-derivative (ie; no innovative) jazz piano possible after the 60s. So who cares?
>>128270561>sticking to the core of a genre is always a derivative thing to do, no matter what genrewrong. individuality in jazz mainly comes from improvisation, and ryo's solos have no individuality as people have pointed out hundreds of times over the years>After the development of free jazz and new instruments (after the 19600s), virtually everything using the classic instruments and methods is by definition derivative, since countless new avenues opened up for (jazz) musicwrong again. jazz isn't like other genres that are more heavily defined by their timbre or instrumentation, like electronica for example. like classical, jazz is mainly designated by its harmonic vocabulary and rhythmic concepts. you're applying pop/rock logic to a genre that has very little in common with them. free jazz also wasn't that innovative within jazz boundaries compared to post-bop or progressive big band, both of which to this day are the subgenres that push the genre forward most consistently and with as little derivation as possible. nobody is calling ryo derivative because he's playing piano as opposed to inventing his own new instrument, he's derivative because his melodies/harmonies/rhythms and whatnot are bland, unemotional and formulaic.
>>128270561>Derivative music is okay if it attains the heights of what it's trying to achieveFair point>Scenery does just thatHahahahahahaha, man, tourists are adorable
Bill Evans Trio.
>>128271454Pic related?
>>128271189the question was rhetorical. But to get back on topic, OP, you need to listen to Bill Evans as others have already said. I recommend Waltz for Debby and Sunday at the Village Vanguard if you're looking for more piano trio stuff
>>128261409It's literally the opposite. Majority of weebtroons are Amerimutts.

How can people get into passionate arguments over cool jazz. It's background music. The cool beats to study to of the 50s and 60s.
