i love th jazz, currently spinning Rahsaan Roland Kirk's 'The Inflated Tear' and Alice Coltrane's 'Ptah The El Daoud'. i mainly gravitate towards th freer forms, but i love all sorts of jazz

check out norweigen band Supersilent who i've been digging lately, they're a combination of minimalistic noise, electronic, and free jazz. awesome stuff

 

[mack]

Are you a Naked City fan? They did some pretty crazy stuff.

 

[magician]

Anyone like Diana Krall

 

[DaRanjed]

Jazz is cool. Ella Fitzgerald's voice is amazing.

 

[ur_inner_child]

Don't forget Miles! (how cliche, but oh so good!)

And Charlie Parker

....and Lee Morgan.. if anyone knows him...

 

[artfag]

die, diana krall


yeah, some of th naked city stuff is pretty interesting. i have them all but haven't really had a proper listen. i am a big John Zorn fan though

if you like that sort of fusion jazz you should hear this italian band Zu, they mix freeform jazz with hardcore- although theyre nowhere near as crazy

 

[mack]

Anyone like Diana Krall

Hahaha! That was funny.

Are you a fan of:

St Germaine
Jazzanova
Groove Armada
Theivery Corporation

Not traditional jazz, but its great electronic jazz. I figured you might like some of those since you're a Massive Attack fan.

 

[thejosiekiller]

bottom 2 yes

also morcheeba and maybe supreme beings of leisure (theyre more pop though)

have u heard om lounge? thats good

 

[Soma]

Thelonius Monk, Coltrane, Herbie Hancock
I need to listen to more.

Hey man I saw them when I was in Germany last July! Man, they were weird, but i appreciated it...it was hard to get into, but once I did you just feel the groove so hard!

 

[demosthenes]

nah man, I appreciate diana krall...like i reckon she has sold out a bit lately, but if you listen to some of the stuff she did with Martin Hope in the mid 80's, it is like AMAZING!!!
(hehe triple post...sorry guys!)

 

[artfag]

Thelonius Monk, Coltrane, Herbie Hancock
