There's a thread on 313 (Detroit techno list) about
techno and jazz. Here are just two posts that I
thought were relevant for this list.
The LTJ Bukem remix album sounds interesting. I've
also been looking forward to the new Ian O'Brien lp,
but I had no idea that Domu and Nathan Haines were
involved...or maybe I just forgot. Cheers

I think you would enjoy the Herbie Hancock album which
I haven't heard of yet but everyone seems enamored
with.
LTJ Bukem has remixed a single from that album. You
may like Bukem's stuff generally as he shares the same
kind of cultural sensibilities, with that
jazz/tech/house hybrid. Bukem is working on a remix
album of Journey Inwards with some of his own heroes -
though no names are being given out, my guess is that
artists from Detroit, Chicago and the jazz world will
be involved in that. He is also launching a new deep
house label Deep Rooted, so maybe look out for those
issues. I think it will be interesting.

The new Ian O'Brien album, A History Of Things To Come
(Peacefrog) gets my current vote for gorgeous, spicey
'future jazz' stuff in this vein. But he
throws in versions of Jaco Pastorius' "Teentown," and
Pat Methany's "A Midsummer Western Night's Dream" to
provide some nice historical context. Also features
Kiwi NATHAN HAINES (flute), and DOMU (drum programmer
extraordinaire).
