the more it has in parallel with edm - the better (repetativity, droning, general construction, etc)

Jazz + EDM = Kevin Yost.

Anything by him. Preferably his mix comps such as Small Town Underground, Future Flashback etc.

thanks, but that's not what i'm after, i know a lot of the music that tried to combine the two, mostly deep house.

i'm looking for actual jazz

What's "droning"?

I could ask my dad, he's an expert on the field.

Skalpel is a polish jazz group with electronic elements. Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sooo sooo good.

I discovered Nicola Conte in Spain :D

Also, Amon Tobin's "Supermodified"

I always thought it to be the jazziest of Tobin's works.

There's always Herbert and Mr. Scruff as well! Oh and Cinematic Orchestra which is more laid back.

"I wrote this song for the girl Paris Hilton" by Vincent Gallo is superb, as well as "Endless Summer" by Flanger or "Lazy Lagoon" by Anjali.

I guess this all may be more towards acid jazz. I don't know if it's what your looking for.
:conf:

thanks, will look into them :)

don't know how 'repetitive' jazz music can be since by definition it's based on improvisational asides and syncopated rhythm.

miles davis's "birth of the cool" and his more experimental "bitch's brew" are considered important records, as is charlie parker's "night in tunisia." miles's last album before his death, "doo-bop," is also interesting and features some nice collaborative work with hip hop artists.

on the singles side, bob james' "nautilus" and albert king's "i'll play the blues for you" have always been top class.

good information on jazz. that just goes to show that music that is repetitive is natural in some genres.

From the recent artists I only know Jamie Cullum, Diana Krall (and maybe Norah Jones). (all vocals)

but most older jazz (mostly instrumental) is the best imo, like Armstrong, Miles Davis, Glenn Miller, Chet Baker, Duke Ellington, Coltrane.
Spacey Orange
A Twist of Jobim

Waters of March (Aguas de Março) - Oleta Adams :tongue2
