New track from Eyot, in advance of a new album coming in October:
I'm not sure if they're really minimalist enough for this thread. But I think there's enough commonality with some of the bands mentioned here to risk it!
Oh hell yeah that fits, I'm all over this stuff.

Gordon Haskell - "You've got to keep the groove in your head and play a load of bollocks instead"
I blame Wynton, what was the question?
There are only 10 types of people in the World, those who understand binary and those that don't.
I like it. I suppose it will get on my wishlist.
If you don't have them already, their last two albums Similarity (2014) and Innate (2017) are excellent.

There are CDs, but not sold via their Bandcamp pages.
As with Mascodagama's link above to Eyot, I'm not sure if this quite fits the minimalist jazz bill, but following his lead...
I caught the set by Ariwo during the We Out Here virtual festival over the weekend, & immediately wanted to check out more. A remarkable intersection of electronica with Cuban percussion & brass & Iranian ancestral music.
Their self-titled debut album is excellent.
^ Very nice. A little reminiscent of Ibrahim Maalouf in places (which is a very good thing, in my book).
Yes, that's a fair shout, righgt enough (on both counts!).
Pouya Ehsaei, who seems to be the main person behind Ariwo, has been collaborating more recently with alumni from the London scene - such as Joe Armon Jones & Moses Boyd. The sounds are more self-consciously "club-by" - not a bad thing in itself - but some of the distinctiveness of the Cuban influence seems to have been sacrificed.
Up on bandcamp for those interested.

Glad you're liking this, Ian!
Tread carefully with the new one, though - it's a different beast. He's collaborating with some of the London alums, which is great...but the musical direction is much more dance/techno oriented. I don't think that it is quite so interesting, although there are still plenty of good moments.
Don't think he's here but he's all over Progarchives at the moment with his band suggestions and arguing altered history (Pink Floyd aren't prog, King Crimson ended as a band in '74)

I just took delivery of the new Mammal Hands album, Captured Spirits today. It's been on pretty much continuous play - I'm loving it, already, unreservedly.

I think that the Gondwana label is releasing some of the very best music out there at the moment - Mamal Hands, GoGo Penguin, Portico Quartet, Paradise Cinema... - here's a fantastic wee sampler of their 2020 releases, curated by Matthew Halsall, who is the guiding force behind Gondwana, & whose own excellent 2020 release features herein.
(Also - all money goes directly to the excellent homelessness charity, Shelter)

Any of you guys checked out Jason Kohnen's post Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble band, The Thing With Five Eyes?

Nik Bärtsch's newest solo record is being released today: https://www.nikbaertsch.com/nik-bart...tendre-lp.html
One thing is for sure, the sheep is not a creature of the air.

I hope that we have definitions aligned on the minimalist jazz rock. In that case I would recommend a couple of albums I am fond of
CoDoNa - just about everything they did
Jan Garbarek - albums from late 70s, early 80s
Jodi Stivin - Zodiac, Excursions, 5 hits in the Row
Freddie Hubard - Sing me a song of Songmy
