I've only heard certain tracks off one of the Instinct comps. It's more
of the house-oriented acid jazz, which is generally rare nowadays.
They're not even a band. CFM stands for "Crazy FrenchMan," a nickname of
producer Reynald Deschamps, who is basically "the band," save for a
couple guest musicians. Deschamps is also the guy behind Swing Machine.
