The last thread title was a little too optimistic for us, don't you think? And have we done this title before?
-EDIT-
Despite six years of Latin, I still suck at Roman Numerals.

I don't see how Sex Mob has anything to do with Nu Jazz, though, I don't recall much electronics from what I heard from them. And as I said in the previous page, jazzcore is not indie kid jazz like Led Bib. I don't know what you would call them.

No Sleeper, you're still making sh*t up,
according to Wikipedia "jazzcore" is aggressive punk-jazz like Naked
City, Last Exit, Painkiller, Zu, Ground Zero, etc.
NEW
THREAD HAS BEEN MADE!
LOL. Jean Louis is listed as Jazzcore on Last.fm as well as Led Bib, Acoustic Ladyland etc. and that's every bit as "reliable" as wiki.
Anyway, ignoring the genre fails, you get my point right? How I got started in jazz, I mean.

Jean Louis would be according to that, I think. Or at least closer. Acoustic Ladyland too.

They're pretty good, I like Meddle more overall though I don't like "San Tropez" after first listen. AHM's title suite was great, definitely my favorite from that one.

AHM is definitely one of those albums that has to grow on you, even that godawful Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast did with me eventually (And Fat Old Sun is probably the best purely Gilmour track the band did)

Having the search box on the left makes sense. I read from left to right. Putting it in the top right hand corner is stupid and is this the last place I look.

The new Youtube is dreadful.
The new Tzadiks are available, but the samples for them sound...not good.
I think I may have gotten over listening to IDM, so much of it besides Aphex Twin sounds the same.
I don't think I've ever heard Fiona Apple, although I've heard of her because of that album title, but she is hot.
