Acid Jazz

The "Acid Jazz" playlist is a carefully curated collection that dives deep into the groovy, soul-infused world of acid jazz music. Starting off with classics like "Knucklehead" by Grover Washington, Jr., and winding through the experimental realms with tracks such as "Hargrove" by Kenny Garrett, this playlist is a journey through the genre's rich heritage and contemporary innovations. It features an eclectic mix of artists, from the funky rhythms of The Brand New Heavies in "Sometimes" to the smooth vibes of Galliano's "Nothing Has Changed." Whether you're looking for the soulful melodies of Erykah Badu in "Back In The Day" or the infectious beats of The Quantic Soul Orchestra with Alice Russell in "Pushin' On," this playlist has got it covered.

Listeners can expect a blend of instrumental finesse and vocal prowess across tracks, making for a dynamic listening experience. With the inclusion of international flavors from artists like Sly5thAve and Roberto Verástegui with "El Momento," and the fusion sounds of Jamiroquai's "Space Cowboy," the playlist delves into acid jazz's global appeal.
