Groups alike marcus gilmore latest record

Hi. I'm looking for groups that sound a little close to marcus gilmore last recording (journey to the new live on village vanguard). I see some chick corea influences from the time marcus gilmore played with him but it feels much modern and i don't feel like i can see a lot of people playing in this modern "fusion" maybe closer to the modern jazz than to fusion. Do you guys know something that also get's in this eletronic aproach without backbeats and with that modern "unsettling" style?
I would apreciate if you guys could help me here

A deeply immersive blend of minimalist jazz, cinematic repetition, and electronic crossover (Sven Wunder, Mammal Hands, GoGo Penguin) — looking for recommendations!

Hey,

I’ve spent the last few months deeply immersed in the world of linear acoustic minimalism and atmospheric contemporary jazz. I decided to launch a new curator project called Hidden Frequencies to map out this specific intersection where organic jazz meets hypnotic electronic textures.

I just launched the first playlist in the series, and I'd love to share it with you all and get your feedback/suggestions:

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7hEEq2LAPlP98EpBndezDY?si=3f4fd535192b4f6b

The Vibe:
Think Gondwana Records-style repetition, moody cinematic noir soundscapes, and subtle electronic production pulses. It’s built primarily for deep focus, late nights, and spatial awareness.

Current Featured Tracklist Includes:

  • Sven Wunder (Cinematic global grooves)
  • Mammal Hands & GoGo Penguin (Linear acoustic repetition)
  • Cochemea & Alex Figueira (Spiritual rhythms)
  • Akusmi & Svaneborg Kardyb (Electronic-meets-jazz minimalism)

I need your help expanding this: Who am I missing in this realm? I'm actively looking for independent artists, rising projects, or deep cuts that strictly fit this specific late-night hypnotic mood. Drop your favorites below, and I'll be listening through to update the rotation weekly!

Taking indie jazz submissions for (pirate) radio play

Hey all, started hosting a jazz show on Radio Free Memphis. I want to spotlight unsigned artists making original jazz. The episodes are played Wednesday mornings in Memphis right now and posted to bandcamp. Here's the first episode:

https://radiofreememphis.bandcamp.com/track/jazz-i-lay-dying-1

If you want your music on the show, send me a wav/flac file, bandcamp code, whatever as long as I can get a lossless file out of it at jazzilaydying@gmail.com

Small batch of music 2-3 (2-4 tracks) preferred.

Feel free to hit me up if you have questions!
