I'd suggest you try listening to some of the artists the article was making mention of. There are lots of very interesting new concepts in the music these days. And sure, there are kids playing transcriptions of Giant Steps, but who cares, that's not where the music is really at.

The author mentioned Makaya McCraven's work, which is made by getting together an assortment of musicians to improvise at live venues in front of an audience, which is recorded and then manipulated in Ableton after the fact. Those compositions that come out of Ableton are then transcribed, arranged, and performed with a new band.

For instance, I was at the show that was the source material for this at h0l0 in Ridgewood: https://intlanthem.bandcamp.com/track/black-lion-feat-dezron... . Those moments happened, but in very different ways over the course of the couple hours of the night. The version that came out of Makaya's post production and collage from Ableton was then performed a few weeks ago at LPR with a full band as a regular composition.

A lot of these musicians are doing quite a lot of things you probably assume only "electronic" artists are doing, but they're just doing it in the context of "jazz" (whatever that means).

Disclaimer: Makaya's been a friend of mine for 15ish years, but the work speaks for itself.
