    Hi Stephanie,
    I remember a great experience 3 years ago at The Blue Note in London,
    This club was - it's dead now - the best I've ever been to.
    There was Swiss DJs mixing and scratching drum'n'bass and jazz with two live
    musicians - with a double bass and a saxophone/clarinet. The kind of music
    you can listen to and dance to... an amazing experience.

    Now, a question: does anyone has any idea who it was??? (maybe Eric Truffaz
    and Co???).

    Cheers.
    Christophe.

    BTW, you can also check the first Gomez album that include some very subtle
    vinyl samples.
