Venezuelan band kRé is classified under jazz-rock/fusion but I think they would fit better under RIO. http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=808 - http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=808
Although their debut is more jazz-rock oriented with some experimental leanings, everything they have done since (including their second release) is 100% experimental with heavy jazz leanings... Some samples of what I am talking about: what do you think? ------------- Michael's Sonic Kaleidoscope Mondays 5:00pm EST(re-runs Thursdays 3:00pm) @ Delicious Agony Progressive Rock Radio(http://www.deliciousagony.com)

I want to answer as I promised earlier :
From your samples as above I can hear some psyche/space influences, but hardly RIO. Then, I tried to find as much different Kre compositions as possible just to imagine better, what their music is ( whenever bands are placed on PA according to their major genre, not by one album or song). Then, materials found were re-valuated again with JRF team.
It looks, Kre is really interesting jazz fusion band, and even if they have few other influentions in their music, their main sound is still JRF. So, it will be hardly possible to find for them better place,than they have now. Thank you for your suggestion anyway.
