You'll find plenty of jazz-adjacent stuff if you dig deep enough in the archives here. It's just not something that's really at the forefront.
I find that jazz is also just a super vague label since you have to base your categorization on the feel/decisions behind the music rather than the actual content of it if that makes sense. jazz is more of a "I was trained in this" type thing rather than an "I actively make this" ordeal, to put it crudely.
Off the top of my head i can recall some AT legends/oldheads that do/did that sort of stuff:
@beat123
@nmgbeats
@cuddlexdude
@frigolito
@iwanbeflylo23
@vltra2
^ just to begin with
All of these fine folk stretch the definition of 'jazz' but do so in the best way imo- they preserve the whole jazz mentality of 'anything goes' but apply it to electronica and production techniques rather than pure, raw musicality. It's like this whole new form of digital improvisation. Crazy work.
Now I'm overthinking this post and the implications of what I'm laying down... there's a whole ass essay here- just enjoy the music lol

I am also a jazz lover, and a jazz music maker, I have been listening to Jazz music for years, ever since I was 19, and I love making jazz. Also i make hip Hop and bebop jazz in electronic music, I've been in the music business for years, and I'm loving audio tools to enhance my career. Go Audio tool.
