“Time is the best curator” says our music director. “Only the highest quality works get through this filter. What we play here cannot just be labeled as jazz funk or fusion grooves. These are masterpieces of the last five decades which came through that time filter. Fashion fades away, however, style remains as it was. So, you’ll find a very strong music mix here at SomehowJazz. It’s soulful, sophisticated and articulate at the same time.”

CONCEPT & PHILOSOPHY

The core of SomehowJazz’s music concept is the jazz of the 1970s. Influences from funk, soul, and rock, along with an abundance of high quality record production and outstanding musicianship, make the jazz albums of those years a cultural treasure. SomehowJazz features the best tracks from these albums and the best contemporary jazz cuts that carry their influences.

Our philosophy is sophistication without sounding pedantic, entertainment without getting commercial.
