[MrScorpio]

Not too many, I bet

[miss_kitty]

1. i think i do...i'm not sure what 'Electro Lounge' is

but if acid jazz is what i think it is, i like it

[MrScorpio]

4. Have you ever listened to Hotel Costes or St Germain des pres cafe?

That's in the electro lounge mode

[miss_kitty]

2. Love Acid Jazz

Favorites are Mark Farina and DJ Smash... "Electro lounge" is probably cool too... don't know who exactly is classified as an "Electro Lounge" DJ.

[MrScorpio]

6. I've got three Mark Farina CDs and two by DJ Smash

Can't wait for the next MUSHROOM JAZZ

3. Does Fantastic Plastic Machine count?

They/he are/is fantastic.

[MrScorpio]

5. The are def electro lounge

They did a cover of STEPPIN' OUT that I have

[tuvor]

7. That's actually the one song by them that I hate.

Partly because I love Joe Jackson's original, and partly because the singing is so FLAT.

Their extended cover of "There Must Be an Angel" (Eurythmics) surpasses the original, though.

[MrScorpio]

9. I'm putting together a list of stuff I plan on downloading from iTunes

They have two CDs that I'm putting down on the list

[tuvor]

10. The ones I have are

In order of purchase:

Luxury
Self-titled
Beautiful

The first two are must-haves, the third's not bad, but more disco-ey, i.e. 1970s.

Also, though I'm sure you're aware of these artists, check out Arling and Cameron's "All In," Dimitri from Paris's "Sacre Bleu," and Tataka Minekawa's "Fun9".

I like literally all genres, but let me know if you know of anything else in this vein. The less obscure, the better, since I live in smaller city and only get to Vancouver a couple of times a year.

[MrScorpio]

12. Are you into Nicola Conte and Rosalia de Souza?

I'm also a huge bossa nova and samba fan too

[tuvor]

14. Haven't heard of them.

Love bossa nova/samba, though!

Astrud Gilberto, mmmmmmmmm....

[MrScorpio]

17. I've got tons of the stuff

You better believe that Astrud Gilberto is a big part of it

[Swamp Rat]

19. I prefer Elis Regina

... and jazz on acid. Oba!

[MrScorpio]

8. Here's a great internet radio station

Click on JAZZMUSIQUE

They play a lot of what's in my own collection

[tuvor]

11. Listening to it right now, thanks!

[Tom Kitten]

13. I'm not sure what electro-lounge is

Do you mean stuff like Ursula1000 or Air? I like them, have several cds...
I have and like John Zorn's cd "The Gift", does that fit in?
Also some Indian and Middle Eastern techno cds, I don't have them handy at the moment so I can't give you the titles (sorry, but I know one features the Pipes of Jajouka).
I posted about a cd I recently found called "The Blair Witch and the Bush of Ghost Project" by Toshio Nakanishi and Kensuke Shiina that is excellent! Toshio used to be in the Japanese band the Plastics, sort of their conterpart to the B-52s...
I also recently got the Pink Panther Penthouse Party cd, which is also excellent, in my opinion...

[MrScorpio]

15. Zero7 and 4Hero would be great in collection too

Plus there's a lot of Brazilian stuff out there that you might be interested in

Check out Fila Brazilia

[frylock]

20. how about jimpster or bonobo..

[MrScorpio]

21. A couple of funky bands

They're good too
