Posts like this make me yearn for the former AK platform, where we could save them into folders we created, labeled and organized by topic. Alas…

Brian Blade has always been my go to reference for the ECM sound but I have trouble describing that special "ECM sound" without reducing it to "softer jazz" or something. How would any of you fine folks on this thread approach a short hand summary of the "ECM sound" to beginning/intermediate Jazz cats looking to expand their listening?

So, what's the deal with ECM records and their artists? I feel kind of silly for asking - but are they contemporary music? Sort of modern Windham Hill perhaps? Thanks! I always learn something new here at AK.
