Parov Stelar is a music producer from Austria.

Hit & Run (Wolfgang Lohr Remix)The Electric Swing Circus
In the past, jazz dance commonly showcased dynamic routines with large, expansive choreography.
However, by blending with various other dance genres, jazz dance has undergone significant changes, and nowadays there are contemporary styles that use intricate, detailed movements.
“Hit & Run (Wolfgang Lohr Remix)” is a perfect match for modern jazz dance, crafted as a fast-tempo, stylish electro swing track.
SlowdanceMndsgn
One of the most talked-about soul musicians in Los Angeles, Mind Design draws strong inspiration from 1970s and 1980s soul and funk, and is highly acclaimed in the Black music scene for his exceptional songwriting.
Among his works, the track that’s perfect for jazz dance is Slowdance.
It’s close to an instrumental, crafted with a sound that blends smooth jazz and neo-soul.
One for the RoadAtom Smith
In recent jazz dance, it has become more common to use electro swing—a genre that mixes swing jazz with electronic music—as background music.
There are many types of electro swing, and some tracks are irregular and quite challenging.
Atom Smith’s classic “One for the Road,” in that regard, is crafted as a very danceable and orthodox electro swing track.
For beginners in jazz dance, it could be great background music for practice.
Si on parlaitSheryfa Luna
When you hear “jazz dance,” you might picture something laid-back.
It’s true that jazz dance can look that way because the individual movements are often large.
However, modern jazz dance has evolved, and there are high-energy styles as well.
A great track I recommend for that kind of dance is “Si on parlait.” It’s a classic by French artist Sheryfa Luna, crafted with a charming, stylish sound that’s distinctly French.
