Jazz of The Legend of Korra (playlist)

[@bananatiergod]

You can say a lot of things about the show but the Steampunk atmosphere especially in season 1 (and even in 4) was peak

[@gretazimmerman8299]

Agreed.

[@kashkinn]

Love the new york 20s- 30s vibes from korra season 1 with all the mafia and the jazz and suits it makes it perfect

[@nor_ame]

I agree. Also what I love is Asami Sato / Varrick entrepreneurship vibes ❤

[@eury4959]

This is actually staple of the very beginnings of jazz that can be traced back to new Orleans, Louisiana. It's beautiful representation and gives justice to the the likes of Louis Armstrong

[@r.kolemaistos7788]

It's Shanghai 20s-30s, really. Look up 時代曲. I mean, they even got an erhu here.

Left my heart in Replublic City is incredible

[@upsidedownbagofflour697]

As fun as it is to hear jazz in the Avatar universe, I wish the in-universe cultural changes that led to it were fleshed out more. For example serious missed opportunity to include instruments like wooden fishes, tom-toms and china symbols frequently added to real-life early trap kits

[@BelgianDneprGuy2003]

It's funny, I watched most of the Legend Of Korra yet don't remember these

[@jay_dots3084]

Strange they're pretty defining for the show tbh

[@debutriah2854]

Season 1

[@RhaenyraTargaryenTheFirst]

Season 1 literally haha

[@prismanic24]

The vibe this show had was 🔥👌

[@LukeSkywalker-zv3xy]

Does anyone know where I can find the theme that plays when varrick is in jail? I love it and cannot find it anywhere :(

[@ambush_akula5261]

as someone who loves big band, this is amazing, this seems to match 20's big band more than 30's 40's still awesome though

[@eury4959]

Yea it's New Orleans jazz, the precursor to everything jazz.

[@celissavasquez8501]

If korra was this amazing with the scenery and the music i just wonder how the next one will play out

[@loganwendigo937]

Now this is the good stuff

[@emm-15]

I never would expect to hear an erhu in jazz music but it works surprisingly well!!! I love legend of korra

[@terralp2062]

Thx for creating this.

[@raquelbello01]

I only remembered the last 3 soundtracks 😢 Mako and Asami Dine was so beautiful 😢

[@ebraheemfredericks5736]

This is awesome. Thanks for collecting the jazz songs and putting them in a playlist.

[@Enderist]

Thanks for making this comp! I really wanted to find these songs and this was the only video i could find that had good quality.

[@nor_ame]

Glad I could help!

[@isbored794]

That’s exactly what it was supposed to be based around I believe. ATLA takes place in what would be 1850 for us, so 70 years later is 1920

[@kermitthemutantlevitatingfrog]

The real question is where did the brass instruments come from and how did they develop so quickly? If I remember correctly, the only brass instruments we see in ATLA are little horns used for signaling, similar to traditional Asian instruments. All other wind instruments we see are flutes and reed instruments. There isn't another continent with European inspired culture, so how did we go from small hunting horns to a fully fleshed out family of brass instruments in 70 years?

[@awesomeal8027]

The original happens in the 1850s in our world in the later half of the 19th century Europe Europeanized Asia especially china and Korra happens in the 1920s when Europe did there thing also china had a civil war at this time just like in season 4

[@mr.person1219]

Thanks for making this compliation

[@nor_ame]

You're welcome 👍

[@gabrielofficial7859]

Can you add the jazz music heard in season 4 Called reunion where korra and asami meet ?

[@nor_ame]

Hey, thank you for your comment! Unfortunately, I can't find a clean version of the song. So, I guess we only have a few released jazz songs. I will try to extract more music from The Legend of Korra using AI though, cuz thanks to you I now know there's more jazz than I thought.

[@gabrielofficial7859]

@@nor_ame yes please do it's a really classy one !

[@capybaradeelnorte1627]

Does anyone know the name of the little melody that plays in the introduction to the chapter? Where does the pro control narrator summarize the previous chapter?
