Just listen to "Playing For The City" (aka Olivier Portal) tracks on Straight
Up (and some other labels : Maine Recordings, La Rosière...).
All his tracks are brilliant.
Also try these artists and record labels :
Kevin Yost (Guidance and I records)
Next Evidence (Straight Up and Basic)
Ron Trent (Giant Step, Nitegrooves)
Julius Papp (Paper, Yellow, I records, Esho)
