    1993!!! The first broken beat I ever heard was in 1986! And I'm
    telling you guy it was just wicked. Not like this watered down
    commercial stuff they are all doing now.

    :-)
    Seriously though - I think my first exposure to this stuff was via
    Alex Attias. I was seriously into the Bel-air Project remix of Roni
    Size's "Watching Windows" from '98, which still sounds pretty
    nu-jazz to me. Then there's "A Jazz With Altitude" - 'nuff said.

    I wonder if any of Tek9's "It's Not What You Think" album from '95
    counts. After all, half of Domu's tracks sound just like Tek9**
    from that period. I think that's pushing it though.

    **Tek9 = Dego (not on the alias list.)
