Wookie,  It's interesting that you noticed that it needs more mixing glue for jazz coherence.  That's something I would never in a million years know.

Doesn't matter to me what the genre is labelled as, it all comes down to what it sounds like.
 
To me, this sounds half-finished, and not a little confused. The percussion is all over the place, what's with those huge decays on the cymbals? (like at 0:49). The sections where it thins out to just a 3/4 thing on the drums with hardly any piano are just...odd, frankly.
 
 

Aloha James!  Thanks for listening.

I don't have anything to add.  I don't get into jazz except some light jazz.  Your composition does sound like some of the jazz I have seen in Chicago.  I like the square tea cup thing!  I would suggest that when you update a song you either repost it or replace the original post link with the new one.  I think most people aren't seeing your updates. I love your SimpleSam tune. Anyway, your jazz compositions labels you as a freak of music.  LOL.  Interesting stuff.

Thanks eva, I took your advice and updated the links.
