31 mixes with tracks by “new orleans jazz”

Several songs, mostly by modern New Orleans bands. Of course, they can't explain all the sides of a very large piece of jazz music. But when i hear words "modern new orleans jazz" i imagine something similar.

At picture - Loose Marbles play at Preservation Hall in New Orleans.

Ten tracks from my setlist of the 3rd social swing dance in town.
I tend to play the old skool stuff but was in a more modern mood this time.

With a nod to HBO’s Boardwalk Empire, TomCat celebrates the 1920s with indelible performances by seminal artists of the era: King and the Duke, Dippermouth and Jelly Roll, Fats, Bix, Tram and more. (Audio quality is about what you’d expect from some of the earliest jazz recordings, but the music still swings like mad.) Press play, close your eyes, and imagine you’re at Babette’s sipping bootleg Pimm’s Cup with Nucky and the cats from AC.

Ten tracks including music by Sidney Bechet, Woody Allen, Artie Shaw...
