What happened when trance producer Robert Miles collaborated with insane Indian jazz drummer Trilok Gurtu? Pure awesomeness, that's what. To me, this album represents what's largely missing from both the jazz and electronic worlds: fully embracing each other. It's beautiful musicianship meeting electronic wizardry, and vice-versa. Think jazz trio meets Deadmau5. Miles' electronic soundscapes blend perfectly with Gurtu's frantic drumming and Jon Thorne's snaking bass lines. The best part is that it doesn't sound like an experiment. It sounds completely organic. Overall, in my opinion, this album is one of the finest examples of what the future of jazz should sound like. Here's a sample:
