Membership

A NEW WAVE OF JAZZ is not about jazz music, persé, but more about a philosophy. A style, an approach, a modus operandi in communicating between artists, label and audience. A platform for all experiments and sound exchanges between the affiliated musicians on the label, from full-on free improvisation to minimalism. However this creativity lives between the cracks and is fully DIY so we’re setting up this VIP membership for the devotees among you.

Your membership will help us to support future releases, concerts and projects. In return you will get access to :

  • new releases (digitally)
  • exclusive unreleased live recordings, home sessions, album outtakes
  • 10% discount on merch.

Get your membership on our bandcamp site. Thank you for supporting DIY !
