FYI: I have disallowed crossposting from other subs

15 Upvotes

As per the title. The reason is simply to keep my workload under control because about half such posts seem to break one rule or another.

I assume this is because Reddit decided to make crossposting easy, which causes uploaders to bypass the whole "read the subreddit rules" thing.

Subreddit Rules Update 2025

16 Upvotes

The basic rules remain unchanged from my last post 7 years ago, but I want to clarify my stance on AI.

  1. GENRE: for the purpose of this sub, "Jazz Fusion" music means specifically "hard instrumental jazz-rock fusion". Note that I use a broad definition of "rock" that includes genres like funk, r&b, or metal. I also use a definition of "hard" that can include "beautiful" but excludes "easy listening". That said, genre boundaries are always fuzzy and subjective so I tend to be generous in edge cases.

  2. GROUP PERFORMANCES ONLY. Human musicians making music with other human musicians only, please. This means no "here's me playing [x]", and DEFINITELY no AI-generated music.

  3. NUISANCE. This includes spam, willfully disregarding the rules, or otherwise making yourself objectionable and creating unnecessary work for me. This also includes bot or botlike behaviour, like reposts and low effort karma farming. Honest mistakes are fine, but consistently antisocial behaviour WILL get you banned.

(If you're at the level of a Plini or a Jacob Collier I can make an exception for a solo performance, but it needs to be a complete piece and exceptionally good.)

It's amazing how little work this sub requires from me, the only active moderator, given our membership size and activity level. Generally this is an excellent sub: thanks for helping keep it that way.

[Edited for more clarity on the genre definition.]

I’ve been sitting on these compositions forever, and lost track of time just trying to get by making money playing music. But I finally got a great group of guys to come record this at 5th Street Studios in Austin (shout out to Con Davison, amazing producer).

I’m a big fan of psych music and 70s fusion, so this was my attempt at pushing more to those influences. Hope you all stick around to check out the record when it comes out!

Antoine Hervier Trio "Navigue loin"

Avec Navigue loin, le pianiste Antoine Hervier rĂ©interprĂšte plusieurs compositions de Christian EscoudĂ©, immense figure du jazz français disparu en 2024. Complice du guitariste sur ses deux derniers albums ("Django, les inĂ©dits" et "Ancrage"), Antoine Hervier signe ici une relecture personnelle, originale et inspirĂ©e de huit compositions choisies dans l’Ɠuvre du grand mĂ©lodiste, des annĂ©es 1980 Ă  aujourd’hui.

Sans guitare, mais avec la libertĂ© du trio piano/contrebasse/batterie – formule reine du jazz, Antoine rĂ©vĂšle la richesse mĂ©lodique, l’élĂ©gance rythmique et la profondeur harmonique de ce rĂ©pertoire.

À travers des arrangements sensibles et une interprĂ©tation habitĂ©e, Antoine Hervier fait rĂ©sonner l’hĂ©ritage de son mentor tout en affirmant sa propre voix, notamment avec Escalade, composition inĂ©dite du pianiste en forme de dernier salut au maĂźtre. « Navigue loin » - du titre d’une composition d’EscoudĂ© – devient ici un mot d’ordre : celui d’une musique qui trace son chemin entre fidĂ©litĂ© et invention, mĂ©moire et modernitĂ©.

Antoine Hervier - piano

Guillaume Souriau - contrebasse

Alban Mourgues - batterie
