Sorry, it was Todd who praised Cobblestone Jazz in an earlier post. Based on his recommendation, I downloaded two of the electronic act’s EPs: Dump Truck and India Like Me. Both are excellent.

Cobblestone Jazz is an electronic act that relies heavily on improvisation, giving their extended dance songs a jazz feel. The song [url=http://www.emusic.com/album/Cobblestone-Jazz-Dump-Truck-EP-MP3-Download/11030569.html]Dump Truck[/url] is fantastic, with a blipping backbone that has an echo-y, dub-y feel to it and eventually (around the 5:45 mark) has a jazzy improvised keyboard riff.

eMusic has reinvigorated my interest in dance/electronic music, and Cobblestone Jazz is about as good as I’ve heard.

daniel, i don’t even know who cobblestone jazz is! can you tell me anything about them?

in terms of the st. vincent, i have to say that i’m really not a fan. has she been getting attention? i didn’t think anyone really cared all that much. i thought that first single was just kinda okay, but whatever goodwill it built for me was killed by the record.

Yancy, a new Cobblestone Jazz appeared today or yesterday, called “Put The Lime In Da Coconut.” Isn’t Cobblestone Jazz one of your favorite groups? What do you think of the new single?

I think August 21 will be a bigger summer release date: Caribou (Andorra), Imperial Teen (The Hair, The TV, The Baby And The Band), M.I.A. (Kala), The New Pornographers (Challengers) and a Rilo Kiley disc.
