jazzy/electonica :
Tied and Tickled Trio
album- Observing Systems
label: Morr Music Recrods
release: 2004
track i got to listen to : the Long Tomorrow

This track emphasizes more on horns and rhythms. I got this description scaruffi.com, it says “The instrumentation is inspired to 1960s cool jazz and jazz-rock, but the solos flow as if hypnotized and the group improvisations is icy as if "digitized".” It says that they play electronic jazz, but this track is more to the jazz side, if not at all.

They are a German group that have band memberes from bands like Notwist, Village of Savoonga, etc... their music is influenced by 1960s coll jazz and jazz-rock. Is said to be a mix of Tortoise and Miles Davis.

go ahead and check em out. you can stream 3 of their songs from their website
