To us, musically, this period represents a lot of really great Jazz music, traditional jazz and swing-jazz. Also, piano jazz and blues, including the great works of George Gershwin. The prohibition era, the Charleston and Rag / Ragtime is also something we'd put into this category, as would "Stride" jazz and piano music for Silent Movies.

Up-tempo, bright, intense track, with strong drumbeat, piano, and a remarkable wind-section theme, it is suitable for creating an upbeat, yet hazy atmosphere. Great for productions that require a jazzy vibe, such as films, shows, commercials, and others. This soundscape puts you in a room with great musicians. [Tempo: Medium, Fast / 168 BPM]
