take it away from record/music industry marketing departments and the definition is in constant flux .. changing every aspect on a constant basis..
my take on what may fit your request:
Ben Monder
Herbie Hancock..Maiden voyage/Dolphin Dance
Gary Burton with Larry Coryell
Layfette Gilchrist..keyboard experiments?
Carla Bley-compositions ..with Steve Swallow
Miles Davis....because he has changed the definition of jazz.more than once...with Bill Evans..Kind of Blue..flamenco sketches..
Mike Bloomfield/Paul Butterfield (East/West)
Chick Corea..Spain..progressive Flemenco? Jazz fusion..?
John Scofield
John McLaughlin
and hundreds (thousands) more..with or without public/media exposure.. that could be considered "experimental"
I think on the above list these musicians took many chances (experiments) in their work..many of which were a breakaway from the term "jazz"
a paradox..perhaps...But..if the 1920's New Orleans sound was/is jazz..Can Bitches Brew also be jazz..if so..all definitions of jazz are void..that is..useless..
perhaps a new "label" needs to be used..but then..it would be just as inaccurate as the current term
much like asking---what is "baseball" and having "rollerball" or better yet.."professional wrestling" included in the definition.

Lots of great advice (I dig the nose flute) but to get bachk to the OP who hopefully hasnöt yet lost faith in mankind:
If vintage Blakey isn’t experimental enough, listen to his 80‘s bands, might just fit the bill. Or Sonny Rollins. Scofield’s recordings from the 80s and 90s. That stuff is called „modern mainstream“ and there is more than enough out there. I‘m just listing some masters.
Sounds like jazz, though.

"Mongolian nose flute music". Did not go unnoticed. Pure frickin' genius.

Anthony Braxton? Some really interesting stuff to be had there. Just my opinion.
