Nu jazz (also spelt nü jazz or known as jazztronica,[1] or future jazz) is a genre of jazz and electronic music. The music blends jazz elements with other musical styles, such as funk, electronic music, and free improvisation.[2]
Nu jazz typically ventures further into the electronic territory than does its close cousin, acid jazz.[3] Nu jazz can be very experimental in nature and can vary widely in sound and concept.[3] The sound departs further from its blues roots than acid jazz does, and instead explores electronic sounds and ethereal jazz sensualities.[3] "The star of Nu jazz is the music itself and not the individual dexterity of the musicians."[3]
