I’m Aditya Malve, also known as DJazz (pronounced ‘Jazz’), and for me, Jazz has never just been a genre, it’s a way of seeing the world. Of course, you can define Jazz through improvisation, swing, blue notes, call-and-response, polyrhythms… but to me, it goes far beyond music. I see Jazz in everything – from Newton discovering gravity to UFO sightings, from climate engineering to something as simple and perfect as a heavenly tiramisu. In some way or another, everything carries that same spirit.
All That DJazz is my exploration of that idea. It’s an imprint I created to share my sound and perspective. My influences come from everywhere – UK sounds, jungle, jazz, Indian classical, blues, house, and more, and because of that, I’ve never wanted to confine it to one genre.
