Jaga Jazzist (Music) | comment |
Jaga Jazzist is a band from Norway whose style defies categorization beyond the vague label of Nujazz. They began as a mix of big-band jazz and trip-hop (on Grete Stitz), then they added drum-n-bass and other electronic influences (on A Livingroom Hush and The Stix). Then they added Post-Rock (on What We Must), then Progressive and Math Rock (on One-Armed Bandit). | |

Jaga Jazzist (Music) / int_119ea1fd | comment |
Stop Motion: Both the "Animal Chin" and "Day" music videos involve animated cutouts from photographs and magazines (although "Day" also used some vector graphics). | |

Face on the Cover | |
Jaga Jazzist (Music) / int_1f37a427 | comment |
Face on the Cover: What We Must has a pencil portrait of one band member, and the interior pages of the liner notes have similar portraits of the rest of the band. And Starfire has inverted-color photos of everyone's heads floating in the night sky, with gold lights in place of their eyes. | |

Accidental Aiming Skills: The protagonist of the "Airborne" video opens a celebratory bottle of champagne, completely unaware that a gunman is taking aim at him. The cork flies off the bottle and hits the gunman. | |

Song Style Shift | |
Jaga Jazzist (Music) / int_43d39d6b | comment |
Song Style Shift: On Starfire, JJ take advantage of the extended compositions to switch at the drop of a hat from ambient electronic music to psychedelic rock, to clubby electronic music, to jazz horns over programmed beats, and back again. The press release for the album quoted the band: "The idea was that we thought about the songs as both the original song and a remix in one." | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
Jaga Jazzist (Music) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: A few early songs ("Jazzthing" and "Yo! It's Christmas" from Grete Stitz, and "Seems to Me" from Magazine) feature singing with actual lyrics. Subsequent albums have no lyrics at all—the only singing is scatting. | |

Epic Rocking | |
Jaga Jazzist (Music) / int_74149c93 | comment |
Epic Rocking: Many. Their longest studio song is "Big City Music" (14 minutes) and their longest official live recording is "One-Armed Bandit" from Live with Britten Sinfonia (15 minutes). Their longest track is "Out of Reach (or Switched Off)" (28 minutes, but see Leave the Camera Running, below). All five of the songs on Starfire. The shortest is 6:35, and the longest is 14:07. | |

Siamese Twin Songs | |
Jaga Jazzist (Music) / int_7d276626 | comment |
Siamese Twin Songs: "Day" and "Another Day", which fade together, and "Another Day" ends by reprising "Day"'s main motif. In fact, at live shows JJ tends to play the songs back-to-back, with no break in between—anyone not already familiar with the studio version would think they were a single song. | |

Scatting: "Swedenborgske Rom" features an a cappella, lyricless interlude. "All I Know Is Tonight" has lyricless singing in unison with the epic horn riff. | |
