One of my standout artistic discoveries this year has been the immensely talented Nate Smith, and a track that nearly slipped under my radar is his collaboration with säje, "BIG FISH".

This year, Nate Smith released LIVE-ACTION, one of the scene’s most vibrant and eclectic jazz albums, pushing the genre into bold new territory. His collaboration with säje on "BIG FISH" introduces a sound that blurs the line between jazz, soul, and classic music in a manner that's brimming with nostalgia. Her vocal performance is decorated with uplifting harmonies and background vocals that float effortlessly over the groove, adding an emotional lift to the track. I can't neglect to mention the fascinating rhythm section along with the pleasantly eerie piano arrangements that weave together a mood that feels both hypnotic and subtly unsettling.
