  • If I had to choose an order of importance, just my opinion

    1. Posting
    2. Discussing
    3. Voting

    Edit: I posted quite a lot on jazz, gave up, went back. I’m only saying this to point out what is probably obvious, that I love the form

    I think realistically, jazz is both an intimidating, and quite inaccessible form in ways. Someone just dipping in their toes can find that what they expected was a cozy warm hot spring, and ended up in an infinite pool stretching in all directions

    It can be really scary and disorienting!

    I feel jazz isn’t really a genre so much as a viewpoint on life and sound, and that can make it so difficult to find common ground

    So in a weird way, it might be better if there was less discussion and more sharing. That’s probably a weird view. But what I would like is kind of selfish in my own way. The more people share and feel free to do so without judgment, the happier I am! Because I love new music, but like any normal human I do get trapped in certain vortexes. Apparently I entered a time warp to the 50s-70s and haven’t found a single step back in 20 years lol
