    Nonono! Jazzanova, as a group of producers at least, is putting out
    some very good stuff as well. They have their own choppy style, but
    have you heard Nuspirit Helsinki, and their EP on JCR? Get a listen of
    "Orson" and let me know if you still think Jazzanova is not worth a
    couple of Ep's a year...
