oh fusion!? ...ok Stern Smile

Anyway allmusic says: Electric Jazz, Electronica, Jazz-Funk

But you tagged SHOBALEADER ONE as Eclectic Fusion too... so now I do not know what fusion exactly is! Tongue

Thank you very much

I thought nu-jazz was quite an old tag and that things had changed in the meantime...

Anyway it is not so important... but now I can strongly say I like nu-jazz... Wink

and maybe fusion too Confused

If you check the different genre groups, there is definition for each genre that might help you.

The tag Nu Jazz didn't really catch on with a lot of music sources and it may seem trendy and passe', but we think its a valid term for jazz with an ambient feel to it, as well as jazz that uses minimalist type figures.

You can read more in our Nu Jazz definition which gets into more detail.

None of these tags are perfect, and a lot of albums can easily fit more than one tag, but we are stuck with the job of picking just one tag, it is kind of frustrating some times.

Here is the Nu Jazz definition:
