British electronic pioneer Dave Angel has highlighted ten jazz classics that informed the sound of his recent album, “A Time And Place.” The selection is part of a series that asks industry figures to open their digital crates and discuss the music that influences their work.
Angel’s curated list provides a glimpse into the melodic and rhythmic foundations behind his new record, underscoring the ongoing dialogue between jazz and contemporary electronic production. The initiative aims to give DJs, producers and label owners a deeper understanding of the sources that drive current releases.
The story was first reported by DJ Mag, noting that Angel’s choices reflect the broader practice of digging through past genres to inspire fresh electronic output.
