DJ ZedVantz’s Turntable Jazz Mix.
Originally heard it through Dom, who heard it through electricgecko.
Very, very cool.

What inspired the mix was that “Swing Set” song by Cut Chemist featured on the first Jurassic 5 album. Its also the last song on this mix. It was old swing/jazz music mixed with break beats. I wanted more! So, I started collecting/searching for hiphop instrumentals with jazz samples. I made a few mixtapes but nothing that stuck. Then in recent years all these great labels started popping up - Jazz & Milk, Melting Pot etc - so I just took all the beats I had and kept filtering it down to the best of the best, with an end result being this nice short 35 min mix; no filler, dope from beginning to end. - DJ ZedVantz

Academy of Achievement’s Exclusive Interview: Wynton Marsalis (via KristenReardon, YouTube)

I just got back from seeing Wynton Marsalis perform with Jazz at Lincoln Center during the Vancouver International Jazz Fest. It was absolutely incredible. I was also fortunate enough to have seen Dave Brubeck perform a few nights before - who also took part in the festival - and so, understandably, I’ve been in a Jazz state of mind. This clip - which I stumbled on out of chance, it seems - beautifully captures what I understand to be the fundamental and unique quality of music. Enjoy!
