Dear Elazar,
It's funny that you should say that.
Here in Australia, in the late 40s, some older jazz musicians regularly 
teased us young mouldies by referring to jazz from the New Orleans 
'revival' (Bunk, George Lewis, et al.) as "underwater music".
The term stuck for quite a while.

Kind regards,
