>I keep hearing Sonar Kollective mentioned and I also have no idea what >they are about. What's the scoop? they recently released a version of irfane's "just a little lovin" that didnt require sample clearance. its wack. but definitely check out the original, available only on bootleg (with release quality sound!): http://www.discogs.com/release/226912 aside from that, theyre usually hit or miss as are jazzanova. when they hit, they hit. but the misses are much more bland. for some recent hits check moonstarr's "detroit", a homage to techno and house from the D which ends up being better than alot of stuff actually coming from the D, the vinyl version of fat freddy's drop's LP (313 relevence: they played at the festival in 2004 [too bad if you missed them, it was awesome] and joe dukie is all over a couple of those jams on the new recloose including "dust"), and the recent clara hill 12" with recloose rmx on it featuring some of recloose's wildest drum programming since "spelunking". their stuff might be a little "soulful" but its usually atypical. tom ________________________________________________________________ andythepooh.com
