Check out this guy. A creative blend of sampling, techno grooves, Bill Evans style piano, hot B3 organ solos and synth stuff reminiscent of Zavinul. This is indeed the future - and his latest release "Sharing" is even better. This is great stuff, a true genius! Get it!

Yey more proof that some of the the most interesting developments in jazz are happening in Scandanavia right now. Whilst not quite a 5 star affair, this is very interesting non the less. Check out Nils Petter Molvaer's Khmer as well.

This is a remarkable landmark in a new stylistic direction and dimension, forcing unpredictable mainline keyes into a super potty athmosphere of glowing glee. Jumping onto you from the first moment is a persuasive intensity of clear and diversed creativity containing brainstorming and mindopening deja vu concepts.

I feel this album is a great example of how artists outside of the technological music genres can listen to them and think, "all those bleeps and bloops are so simple and boring in their composition, I with my musical intelligence can do so much more!" Well sadly enough there is alot going on here but nothing that adds to either the techno or jazz genre. Alot of complicated afterthoughts that make the jazz sound out of place, and the techno weak and under-researched. Maybe Bugge should listen to some, "Man Called Adam" or "Isotope 217", and get back to us.

Just in case you want to look up the superior artist mentioned by our Norwegian friend.
