acidjazz

A popular movement in the late eighties and early nineties of electronic jazz music.

Acid Jazz typically consists of synthesizers playing parts that would otherwise be performed by acoustic instruments or by using loops and samples from original jazz songs.

Usually has lyrics and a strong drum beat. "Easy listening" dance music.

acidjazz

A style of music that utilizes electronic and hip-hop techiques to create a somewhat sensual psychedelic soundscape. It is often characterized by its use of loops and samples of original jazz and blues recordings but with electronic beats, scratching, and mixing.

Hey I found the new Massive Attack album in the 'acid jazz' section. I thought they were Trip-hop.

Acidjazzed evening

A chip module by Janne Suni (Tempest as handle) that won the oldskool music competition in Assembly demoparty in 2000. The reason why it is famous for the fact that Timbaland plagiarized the SID cover of the song for the "Do it" by Nelly Furtado. (maybe also because of HHgregg Chrismas in July ad)

Person one (yeah I got really lazy): Holy shit this chip is good what is it called?\
Person two: It's Acidjazzed Evening by tempest.
