It might not be the case here, but in the past I've heard people use the
word electro as a shortened version of "electronic" to sound cool with out
realising that they had two seperate meanings.

They could just be meaning "electronic jazz"...

Or maybe not...

I went to the Montreal Jazz Festival a few years back and they had
NNERZONE ORCHESTRA headline the event.

Before him were sets by A-TRAK and KID KOALA.

FREDERIC GALLIANO does a really cool live jazz-afro-electronic thing.

KOOP takes more traditional torch song jazz and updates it.

Jeez... there's so many more, and I drawing a blank.
But beware, there's also loads of 'jazz' inspired electronci music out
there that IMO has nothing to do with jazz. Its just a real convenient
influence to drop when you want to be taken seriously.

there is jazz -everything

everyone and their brother has taken jazz and mashed it into every other
form of music in existance.

of course, said people have worked out the concept with varying degrees of
success

Is there such a thing?

Just wondering - there's an upcoming Jazz fest in Toronto, and they're
featuring an Electro-Jazz series. They haven't announced the lineup yet
- I wonder what kind of artists would fit into that category?

Cheers!
