KJC never fails to surprise me. I thought I knew my way around in

[hyperboytkl]

Not only are these ads annoying, they are by far the most disgusting things that got to the screen since the first television .Thank you for the upload. I love instrumental jazz. Will be hoping to be looking forward for more. But I say, the world would be a far better place without those stupid ads ruining things.

[odizm]

this is the kind of music you bump when you roll in to the city
for work or shop at a mall somewhere the kind of music
made for the weather channel

and i love it...🥰
🎶🎵

[MrAquilina]

Ok got this on repeat past few days. Even sleep with it on. Jazz fusion seems to be my new go to. Loving the cool n sublime vibes. 🙏🏿

[DeusVult]

I love J-Fusion so much!!! Absolute great music
God Bless!!!

[Sqwivig]

1:01:16 Is this a remix of "Kokiatsu Girl" from Tatsuto Yamashita!? It has the same melody! I listened to both songs side by side and this TOALLY IS a remix! HOW COOL!!

[WillsJazzLoft]

I'm definitely going to need to set aside time to check this out. There are many names that are unfamiliar to me in the tracklist. Listening to the first track has excited me about the rest.

[okutsutaka]

My favorite, 2nd song - "Sunset Memory" ~ Kazu Matsui Project --- the album has full of the coolest fusion guitar recordings of Mr. Robben Ford. Thank you for uploading!

[JasonCameron]

This is simply stunning! Should definitely have millions of views by now, shame on all the people not paying attention to this gorgeous music. Autumn Breeze gives me serious Aquatic Ruin Zone vibes too

[vincentcarrot]

Autumn Breeze is cool! And Wry Toast brought Up Up And Away to my mind, at times

[jameskeefe]

Thank you. This really hit the spot. Love 80s J-Fusion because of its catchy melodies and upbeat quality.

[Sam-ushe]

Mmm… so chill. I love 80s style synth in smooth jazz.

[traceyfrazier]

THANKS FOR PLAYING SMOOTH JAZZ MUSIC ON UTUBE 🙏

[Sqwivig]

57:20 Reminds me of Sonic the Hedgehog music! Dr. Eggman's theme uses a similar instrument.

[pzkw]

I'm not familiar with any of these tunes. But I gotta tell ya, these tunes help me concentrate when I'm playing chess. Great tunes

[Vicdrum]

Great channel, great music treasures !!! Regards from BRAZIL, land of Bossa Nova and Samba-Jazz.

[johnseddon]

I am seconds into it - and if the rest is as good - I"M IN!
