There's some great modern jazz coming out of Japan these days. Check out the likes of:

  • Hiromi Uehara (and the Trio Project)
  • Takuya Kuroda
  • Sinsuke Fujieda Group

Also, UK too, check out the Ezra Collective.

Plenty of modern jazz out there, it's just not mainstream anymore.


Edit - forgot about Ibrahim Maalouf. Dude is incredible on the trumpet. Between him and Kuroda, trumpet jazz is alive and well.
