MADONJAZZ: Smart music for the expansive mind

We loved this article on the Mixcloud blog for “Music for studying: 10 Mixcloud shows that might make you smarter“! Here’s the write-up for MADONJAZZ:

“Born out of improvisation, jazz is now heralded as one of the most experimental forms of musical expression. Mixcloud boasts some of the best jazz curators in the world, one of which is MADONJAZZ, an independent radio show hosted by Thea & Mark G. They explore the world of deep jazz – the ideal soundtrack if you’re stuck when trying to come up with ideas and need to improvise.”

Nice one Mixcloud!
