Belgian modern jazz is a creative and experimental music genre that merges traditional jazz elements with a wide array of influences, from electronic textures and ambient soundscapes to rock intensity and world music rhythms. The artists often showcase a penchant for improvisation, pushing the boundaries of jazz with abstract harmonies and unconventional structures. Bands like De Beren Gieren and LABtrio exemplify the technical skill and playful interactions that characterize the scene, while groups such as STUFF. and Black Flower incorporate groove-centric beats and global sounds into their compositions. Within this sphere, musicians like Lynn Cassiers and Otto Kintet add a distinct vocal or orchestral element, enriching the musical tapestry. Belgian modern jazz is thus dynamic and ever-evolving, reflecting a vibrant and eclectic scene unafraid to explore and innovate.
