Tome VI is an album by composer and bandleader Gil Mellé and the Jazz Electronauts recorded in 1968 and released on the Verve label.

The Allmusic review by Richard S. Ginell stated "After several years of experimentation, Melle came up with what he portentously called "the first album of electronic jazz." More to the point for jazz listeners, Melle revamped his quartet to keep up with the cutting edge of jazz, playing soprano sax and adopting several mannerisms of modal and free styles while reserving the electronic effects mostly for somewhat free interludes in between the jazz workouts. ... This LP was a technical breakthrough of sorts, for the electronic instruments were being played live at a time when electronic music could only be heard on pre-recorded tape. .." - Wikipedia

Ended Wednesday and welcomed Thursday after a swim with Dropsonde is an ambient album by musician Biosphere (alias Geir Jenssen) released in 2006. Unlike his previous output, the album has a notable jazz influence.

The title refers to a dropsonde, a device designed to be dropped at altitude by parachute to collect data as the device falls to the ground (on Earth or sent to another planet.)

Unlike Jenssen's previous output, there is a notable jazz influence present on this album (such as on the tracks "Birds Fly By Flapping Their Wings" and "In Triple Time"), evocative of Miles Davis's 1970s jazz fusion works. Some tracks also integrate material Jenssen recorded in late 2001 during his climbing of the 8,201 meters mount Cho Oyu in Himalaya. (The raw material itself was released some months later as Cho Oyu 8201m – Field Recordings from Tibet.) - Wikipedia

An Ever-growing Meridional Entertainment Transgression At The Edge Of The Multiverse by Icarus, released on Not Applicable in 2024

Once described by a music magazine as possible “idiots savant who have arrived at a rollicking approximation of post-Darmstadt electronica by accident”, Ollie Bown and Sam Britton (aka Icarus) have always approached electronic music studio work with an insatiably naive experimentalism: never leading with a vision for how a record should sound, but treating the studio more like a teenagers’ amateur chemistry lab that might equally produce explosives, hallucinogens or goo...

Ended the week and welcomed the weekend with Wherever It Is by Somewhere Off Jazz Street, self-released in 2014.

The smokiest, most noir of the releases by this project so far. A good way to end the week and start the weekend!

Ended Thursday and welcomed Friday with Learning To Forget by Somewhere Off Jazz Street, self-released in 2013.

One of the most ambient releases by this project I have heard so far which suited my mood upon retiring and once got home after swimming

Ended Wednesday and welcomed Thursday after a swim with Tomorrow Is
by Jazz Street Trio, self-released on 2011.

"The Jazz Street Trio is the jazz piano trio that's not really a piano trio. It has an acoustic jazz piano trio sound, but is made using only a keyboard and the computer. All the piano, bass and drum parts are played on the keyboard by musician Buz Hendricks."
