Finally...a list that I absolutely agree with 100%! Sometimes I have to remind
myself this is an acid jazz list group, but your list is on the mark Steve.
My only additions would be (for the inevitable top 30 list):
1) Peace Orchestra/Tosca/Any & All Future K&D variations
2) Amon Tobin
3) The Herbaliser
4) Thievery Corp/Thunderball/All ESL Artists
5) LTJ Bukem/Blame/DRS
6) Autechere
7) Spring Heel Jack
8) Photek
9) Alpha
10) Moloko
Yeah, I know...it's not acid or jazz, but these artists have inspired me to
continue exploring every new genre I can find.
Isn't discovering new music great? Thank you XLR8R, Urb and Shawn Fanning...
