you'll need to add several jazzy essentials to this "holy trinity" as
you so humorously put it. :-)
here's 4 (all with vocals) i've come up with: there's Aco (whose last 3
albums are some of the finest progressive electro-soul, dub, and
experimental electronic around anywhere; has worked with Adrian
Sherwood, Silent Poets, mum, Sunahara Yoshinori, Stuart Matthewman;
overall, extremely lush arrangements and delicate, eloborate
electronics), Orange Pekoe (the best song based jazz meets electronic
act this year), Kojima Mayumi (special and unique and fun and hip), and
Ego Wrappin' (cabaret, jazz, New Orleans, folk; bits of many things into
something with their own attitude and sound)
so that should up your trinity to a....septet (for now).
best,
Wesley
