Since the ‘90s, jazz and electronic music have often criss-crossed, trading ideas and supplying each other with fresh energy. The exchange has taken many forms: Moodymann and St Germain have drawn emotional sustenance from deep-blue chords and smoldering late-night grooves; Burnt Friedman and Amon Tobin construct beats around drummers’ knotty polyrhythms. At the other end of the spectrum, avant-jazz figures like Makaya McCraven and Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah use digital tools to radically rework blazing free improv and ensemble play.
