Been listening to Exivious recently.  Now they are fun. Jazz / fusion / metal / prog I guess you'd call it.

Supersilent - amazing improvised music that blurs the boundaries between jazz, rock and electronics.  But definitely very prog in the form of longform pieces, building of tension and release etc.
 
seriously check out 4, 5, 6 and 7 and probably 8

Yes, I have this album:


and it is a great jazz-rock-fusion album, IMHO!




I agree, lots too like - and I even like the scat-kinda vocal parts, which I usually don't go for.

Great stuff all this, my friend ! I love  the softer side of indian or Pakistani music too: Do you know The Tafo Brothers ?
Avalaible only on vynil only but you can find the two best titles on the CD DIM compilation.
 
 
The Sound Of Wonder compilation is great too. Fantastic and funny cosmic sounds, far from the traditional Bollywood.

Thanks for the excellent links fellas re. DCPRG, Nil, Thork and Marcel Moyse. There's just so much that I haven't heard!
 
Here's some more great vibes to start the day:

About Syrinx, David. It's also the title of a short piece of flute of Claude Debussy . For me it's there that modern music starts :

David, Structure of force reminds me the music I've heard last summer in the record stores of Tokyo. Fantastic.
 
Something completly different. I just saw the Movie HOLY MOTORS by LEOS CARAX. I'm sure you gonna love it.

I am seriously addicted to this Japanese fusion act called Date Course Pentagon Royal Garden. I just reviewed their Structure et Force album, and it is imo a true modern masterpiece. Here's a track from it:


Also French band Syrinx are another modern fusion band that steals my breath away. They are a sister band to NIL and Thork, which also infuse a bit fusion into the mix - in fact all three acts are well worth investigating, if you're looking for something a bit out of the ordinary. Here are some links:
Syrinx

NIL:



Thork:



Ok, both NIL and Thork aren't strictly jazzy per se, but they are both damn fine bandsBig smile

I'm checking it out HG, as well as Gilgamesh, MFP. Cheers for the heads up.

You do realise that, as I don't have any myself, I'm going to have to sell somebody else's children in order to fund all your recommendations. Nothing or Nowhere too horrible mind. I'm not that depraved that I would subject anyone to a combination of Tescos and Wolverhampton.
 
Anyway! A great Prog Blues/Jazz hybrid album of sheer excellence :

Back to Prog Jazz ! ARIA PALEA  : Danze D'ansie.
 
 
I suggested this one on the italian thread a few days ago. Not essential but a very good one. Almost impossible to find in CD.  I don't know if you are in the 70's RPI, but if like me you fall on the charm of this music and this language, you won't have to ask anymore how to spend your money the next two years.
