Is jazz a meme?

Have you been listening to modal and free jazz right after listening to hip hop? It's only logical that it wouldn't make sense that way. I hope this is bait, because it seems highly unlikely that a person who's supposedly listened to classical music can't appreciate jazz.

>lack of order

it's expressive whilst being highly technical. and that's not me being euphoric, all the top jazz musicians say it

with so much complexity in constantly changing keys/time signatures/dynamics jazz allows for much more freedom than other genres

Consider the possibility that there is order and structure beyond what you can hear and/or comprehend.

Hand a copy of Finnegan's Wake to a 9 year old and he will most likely tell you that the book doesn't make sense and there's no order to it. But that's why nobody takes the opinions of 9 year olds seriously when it comes to literature.

Classical also is more free compared to rock and hip hop,but there is a tempo sometimes,jazz seems like a complete mess sometimes
I ve mostly listened to modal jazz

It's actually absurdly complex. Listen to Giant Steps. He goes unnoticeable through each key by only moving in thirds and using a blues song structure.

What? Just, what?

re-do-do-diculous. Coltrane is a genius.

There's a reason people can study classical music and jazz music in college and other genres are ignored.

Jazz is for cryptofascists

Avoid at all costs

Coltrane's playing is absurdly complex but none of this about Giant Steps is correct. The notable thing about the tune is the chords moving by thirds, but there is also plenty of fourth-based movement. The structure of the tune is 16-bars and doesn't really have anything to do with blues.

I can respect the technical aspects of jazz but I don't enjoy the sound so I don't listen to it

Are you deliberately listening to free jazz and complaining you don't find it pleasant?
