PSych! I just made an hour long mix of exactly this kind of thing. I'll try and upload it to this thread at some point.

Also, this thread is missing

Der Dritte Raum - Swing Bop
Nortec Collective - Babel
Shantel - Bucovina
Ricardo Villalobos - Fizheuer Zieheuer

dog latin, Wednesday, 17 March 2010 09:58 (fifteen years ago)

Here's the mix. I typed out the whole track listing and then ILX (thanks ILX!) lost it. I'll come back and rewrite it when I got a minute. Sorry. Anyway, this mix is largely made up of tracks like this with a few other things thrown in.

only the essential tracks, mind

St. Germain counts? If you pump up the bass it sounds like house instead of acid jazz.

Probably the best artist doing this is Moodymann. The raw cuts from Motorcity Drum Ensemble are also amazing.

I'm in the mood to listen to some jazzy house, any recommendations?

If you like Moodymann u should check out the self-titled Three Chairs album from way back (group of Moodymann/Theo/Rick Wilhite/mike Huckaby i think?)

Marcellus pittman, my bad

These are all amazing. Thank you!

Moka, Tuesday, 17 December 2013 18:09 (eleven years ago)

There was a track from several years back by Robag Wruhme (or was it Wighnomy Bros?) that had crazy Max Roach style drum samples all over it, but I don't recall the name. And he's sampled plenty of jazzy stuff, but this one sticks out in my mind. If I can dig around his discog and find it I'll post.

andrew m., Tuesday, 17 December 2013 19:45 (eleven years ago)

this is "jazzy"

the late great, Tuesday, 17 December 2013 21:25 (eleven years ago)

woah i was just thinking about terrence dixon when i saw this revive. this sounds pretty "jazzy" to me too

From the Album No Baby for You! (Matt P), Tuesday, 17 December 2013 21:26 (eleven years ago)

Terrence Dixon is awesome! It might be too 'heady' for casual listeners though.... I was actually looking for something that can be dropped casually in a party rather than headphone home listening (although if anyone played these Terrence Dixon in a party I wouldn't complain at all)

Moka, Wednesday, 18 December 2013 06:04 (eleven years ago)

Is there a thread of this sort but for soul/blues samples instead of jazz/swing?

Moka, Wednesday, 18 December 2013 06:10 (eleven years ago)

Anyhoo here's another deep house/jazzy track (nina simone's mosquito sample if i'm hearing correctly)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lPpku7Vgao

Moka, Wednesday, 18 December 2013 06:13 (eleven years ago)

Pinnacles by Four Tet isn't a brass sample but it is a sweet double bass riff loop from a jazz track.

I can still taste the Taboo in my mouth when I hear those songs (Scik Mouthy), Thursday, 19 December 2013 06:53 (eleven years ago)

Surprised and gratified that this thread isn't about the horrible, horrible "Swing House"/"Electro Swing" genre that Tracer Hand touched on above, where every song sounds exactly like We No Speak Americano.

Dan I., Thursday, 19 December 2013 08:15 (eleven years ago)

I hate that shit! On theory it sounds like it could work but it's almost always this cheesy sped up loops that become grating by the second time you listen to them. There's a band called caravan something that is popular amongst the electroswing crowd but I don't get it.

Moka, Thursday, 19 December 2013 09:08 (eleven years ago)

Caravan palace. That's it. We should make a defend the indefensible thread for electroswing.

Moka, Thursday, 19 December 2013 09:09 (eleven years ago)

b-b-but i love we no speak americano..!!

TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 19 December 2013 12:20 (eleven years ago)

i also absolutely adore this slowed down version of der dritte raum:

TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 19 December 2013 12:23 (eleven years ago)

I guess Ben Liebrand's "Move to the Bigband" might be too corny for some of you, but I love this shit! Big band hip house!

On a more serious note, there's this classic:

And if you dig St. Germain, I think you'll like the Masters at Work remix of Nina Simone's "See Line Woman":

Tuomas, Thursday, 19 December 2013 14:22 (eleven years ago)

For much harder jazzy house, there's this:

This thread makin me so happy

queen bey backers (Stevie D(eux)), Friday, 20 December 2013 13:24 (eleven years ago)

Ok a few more!

Claptone - Cream
(based on a The Charmels sample so it's actually soul not jazz but the sample sounds jazzy)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHSLh8-Ijw8

Guillaume & The Coutu Dumonts - The Pussy Shepherd
(based around a Nina Simone sample)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lPpku7Vgao

Nufrequency feat Ben Onono - Fallen Hero (Motor City Drum Ensemble remix)
(Ben Onono has a jazzy voice... at some point it even sounds like a house remix of Nina Simone)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4r3OJxt1Ipk

Bakermat - Black Cat John Brown
(the song he samples is not actually swing but it sounds like manouche swing on his mix)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2w8HXUZGSkw

Brenda Boykin - Hard Swing Travellin Man (Smoove Remix)
Nu-electro-whatever-swing remix that doesn't suck.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jexhDbcXb0U

Fm Einheit & Gry-Princess Crocodile
Another Nu-electro-whatever-swing remix that doesn't suck... maybe it does.
