Loop-Finding-Jazz-Records (stylised in all lowercase) is the second studio album by German electronic music producer Jan Jelinek. It was released on 2 February 2001 by the label ~scape. [4]
Jan Jelinek recorded Loop-Finding-Jazz-Records in his Berlin flat in 2000. [5] [6] He produced much of the album using an Ensoniq ASR-10 sampler. [5] Jelinek composed the tracks on Loop-Finding-Jazz-Records around heavily manipulated samples from jazz records, an approach acknowledged in the album's title, [7] though reviews have noted the album bears virtually no resemblance to the jazz genre and "the sounds' origins are barely perceptible".

In 2017, Pitchfork placed Loop-Finding-Jazz-Records at number seven on its list of the 50 best IDM albums of all time.
