This is a modern twist of jazz with a very modern emphasis with electronic influence. The ambiance is more for a lounge/night club setting with a classy atmosphere. The saxophone, the trumpet, the vocals and the subtle chord progression supporting the melody gives this piece and jazz identity.
I cannot classify this piece strictly in a single genre because this is more of a hybrid. Some can classify has this as 'house' music (subgenre of electronic/techno). One of the strong reasons why this piece does not belong in a single identity category is because of the 'house' elements. There is a lot of repetition with rhythm and theme that is played. For listeners that are not acquainted with this type of music, some may think the ideas and beats are overplayed and lacks a sense of creativity. The range of dynamics are not as diverse as classical jazz. In this case, the dynamic range does not really have a high standard deviation. There is no "wow's" or unexpected twists. It's quite predictable...
Comments are very superficial. I need more specificity.
