Japanski Premijeri for...jazz fusion.

Hi guys and gals.

I would be so bold to propose my own band, Japanski Premijeri, for the inclusion in ProgArchives. Here's the story: we started as a homemade laptop folk (foktronica) thing, but since everyone in the band is a proghead, we can't just ignore our old love. Six years and dozen releases later, we definitely shifted toward ambient prog electronic (with some jazz fusion and everything else in between).

Here are some tracks (I'm sure you'll hear influence from Oldfield, Gong, Italian Prog Rock, Leb i Sol, jazz fusion):

Lichtenberg Figure
Veronese
Od našeg dopisnika
Il Ladro dei Libri
Pissenlit
Diomede
Aska
Les Parapluies

And here are a few more, ambient electronic stylistically ranging from Brian Eno to Tangerine Dream and Jarre:

Railway Tracks
Super Moon
Glacier Dropsy
The Great Attractor
EVA

Of course, these are all cherry-picked. There's a number of ehm-that's-not-really-prog (although certainly leftfield/experimental) tracks as well.

Thank you Finn, old friend!

We released a new album few days ago, I hope folks here will find some interest since we have krautrock, psychedelia, nu-jazz-fusion, space rock and some avant there.

If it gets evaluated - and I hope it will - I would like to suggest jazz rock as a first genre, since JRF is encompassing quit a bit of contemporary nu-jazz with electronic elements.

They are around since years. I thought they were already added somewhere
