In this version of JazzNotJazz, we have a specific approach to programming. We play long songs that might not typically be featured as often. However, we do try to stay within the format of the program as much as possible.
JazzNotJazz is a program where a unique mixtape is created from 100 years of jazz recordings, with meaningful and sometimes less meaningful trivia. It’s also about the soul of jazz, so forays into related styles are definitely made. There are recurring segments such as “The Unplayed Standard,” “Ellington Train Songs,” “Jazz Cameos,” and “More is Better.”
