Following this string of thought .. "Where is AJ going to from NOW?"
I'm interested in acid JAZZ, AND World music ..
Could someone recommend on this line of work, with findable recording ..
Elson mentioned some stuff .. how can we find it?

Just to exemplify the concept .. There is quite a lot of Bossa Nova AJ around ..
surprisingly from Japan. Brazil has many different rhythms aside from the
well known Samba & Bossa Nova (Chorinho, Forro, Carimbo, Frevo, etc.)

What are the brazilians themselves doing? (Any one out there on the list?)
Is anyone working on more contemporary brazilian music, with an AJazz flavour?
Tks,
