I'm down with the Jaz Klash album as being pretty damn close to the perfect
marriage of real playing (as opposed to samples) and drum and bass. Check the
title track to the album 'Thru The Haze' which has Brian Auger on keys. I
picked up the 12" with mixes by Suv, Sperahead, More Rockers and The Angel. I
understand the album is out in Canada on Iron so that should make the imports
here in the states a bit cheaper. :) and I'm all for that. More money for
more records.

The Goldie album I've found to be closer to fuzak. I like that in a Jean Luc
Ponty kind of way, but it doesn't sound like that's what you're looking for.

Peace
