First edition. I have other items for sale as well. Also listed on other sites. The world's first treatise on "danceable jazz" for the club generation. In recent years, "club jazz" has become one of the biggest trends in club music. There are many attendees at club jazz-related parties, numerous compilations and mix CDs are released, and the scene is actively featured in the media, with the scene definitely developing. However, on the other hand, there is still no clear definition of what music is actually called club jazz, and the current situation is that it is not necessarily understood correctly. Therefore, in this book, Shuya Okino (KYOTO JAZZ MASSIVE), a leading figure in the club jazz world, organizes the elements that make up club jazz and provides an easy-to-understand introduction to the whole picture of the scene. Starting with the definition of club jazz, the book explains its history, classification, relationship with real jazz and other genres of music, the selection of music by jazz DJs, and how to enjoy it, all in plain language. In addition, the book includes a disc guide with examples of music selections played before and after, a detailed classification chart, and a historical timeline at the end of the book, making it possible to understand club jazz more three-dimensionally. We will convey the charm of this unique music that connects the past and the present, and that is spreading across borders, without missing anything. 【CONTENTS】 ■Chapter 1: The appeal of club jazz ■Chapter 2: Definition of club jazz ■Chapter 3: Live jazz (old recordings) ■Chapter 4: Live jazz (new recordings) ■Chapter 5: Crossover (old recordings) ■Chapter 6: Crossover (new recordings) ■Chapter 7: How to enjoy club jazz ■Appendix ◎Club jazz masterpieces with selection examples ◎Club jazz classification chart ◎Club jazz historical timeline - Title: Introduction to Club Jazz - Author: Shuya Okino - Publisher: Ritter Music - Genre: Music - ISBN: 978-4-8456-1487-5
