I've been running into some fairly great jazz/electronica fusion as of late. If you're inclined to dig into that kind of sound, check out the Tied & Tickled Trio 'Electric Avenue Tapes' or DJ Spooky 'Optometry'. This stuff uses real players, real-time sounds, etc. and is not simply your standard acid-jazz fare that garners a jazz 'flavor' by slipping in a few samples and rhythm loops (even though some of that stuff is very nice as well). The 'Optometry' recording even uses, as it's band, some choice playing by some very hot, very 'now' jazz players; Joe McPhee, Matthew Shipp, William Parker, Billy Martin, etc.
Funky/fusion jazz with heavy base emphasis....
Happy 03 audiogoners...looking for stripped down, bass dominant jazz/percussion sounds...with little to no trumphets,sax,piano,etc...real funky/fusion type of groove...any thoughts...Bitches Brew is cool...but looking for something more straight forward...less pyschedelic...also...good recording a plus
