  • Man, they have live recordings that sound pretty much identical. There’s nothing pre-sequenced there.

    It’s neither jazz nor prog.

    It’s one of the things that jazz has become. “The sound of surprise” if you will. I like to think of it as “jazz musicians playing x.” So they’ve taken a sound palette from synth heavy prog, little bit of early Genesis, that sort of thing, and played it with a jazz state of mind, jazz harmonies. There’s only a small amount of melodic improvisation, which is kinda like prog-less rock in quantity, but very jazzy in style.
