I have just watched the scene in question from what I have heard I am guessing modern Jazz might be the best thing to search for. Its a genre of music I dont know much about so I could be completely wrong I am sure we would have a jazz lover on here who could help alot better.

Jazz ?

I think you MAY find it is known as PROGRESSIVE JAZZ. At least it was in the UK as I have a good friend that gets into it.

Possibly may have some luck with BEE BOP although this is a style you either love or hate!! It has a very 'brassy' sound like BIG BAND, but is generally faster and more up-beat.
