"I could be snide and suggest listening to some of the "smooth" jazz artists. But in my perspective that would include the danger of your falling asleep."
Like I said, I'm more into 'melodic' jazz. That does not necessarily have to imply 'soft' jazz, does it? Thelonious Monk is one of my all time favourite jazz cats, very melodic, but he could hardly ever be labeled 'soft' jazz, no?
