We’ll be honest (for once). We had unfortunately forgotten about Adult Jazz.  No, not that Kenny G sleep-inducing musical-pablum.  No, we refer to the Leeds’ band of smarty-pants-lads by that name, and their debut album, Gist Is.  Our lamenesia was overcome recently by the band’s appearances on many Best of 2014 lists.  Their complex, atmosphere-laden album is filled with lofty topics ranging from religion to lust.  Sonically the band is full of fits and starts, and falls somewhere between Alt-J, Dirty Projectors and Noah and the Whale.  Not a bad place to be in our books.  To get a feel for the band, check out their official video for one of our favorite tracks off theirs, Springful, along with Shabazz Palace’s inventive, otherworldly remix thereof.
