So what ? :bravo:

It reminds me of this :
"Once, it's a mistake. Twice, it's Jazz."

Hum...

It's totally different : contemporary music is playing noise with musical instruments. Free jazz, is playing noise with musical instruments... But it's jazz :noidea:

There's a lot of things you'll never make in jazz, and its free from any other styles, so you can call it contemporary music. :noidea:

If it's ugly and boring, it's contemporary music.
If it's just boring, it's jazz

If it doesn't have improvisation then it isn't jazz in my book. it's just contemporary classicial music, or comtemporary whatever. jazz needs improvisation.
