You might want to look into stuff on the **ECM label**. Google "ECM jazz" or similar or listen to one of the ECM playlists on Spotify or whatever streaming service you use. Not all stuff on the ECM label is ambient, but a lot of it tends in that direction. **Bohren & der Club of Gore** is an unusual type of ambient jazz. Some non-ECM names you may want to look into are Bill Evans and Stan Getz. Also, Murakami himself has created a [jazz playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/49enkwUCkuy2Q4QHvGw3ul?si=30c1d34008414ba2) that is on Spotify and there are several other playlists on youtube where users have selected specific works that were mentioned in his writings. Listening to the above might steer you in directions to help choose your vinyl. For the above and other kinds of jazz as well, you can listen on shuffle to a [public playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/54Zec8Roc93sywnGUmqDQX?si=ded54725683041cd) that I maintain and update.
