The Stix
Jaga Jazzist
NORWAY


Plenty of your hipper bands might vary their influences list with acts like Tortoise, Charles Mingus, and the Neptunes just to prove they are cool. With the risky, sprawling, and somehow serene Jaga Jazzist, you can actually hear it. The ten-piece, jazz-meets-electronics band from Norway came to life in 1994 when their main brain and songwriter Lars Horntveth was only 14 2001's A Livingroom Hush that grabbed all the attention due to rave reviews and distribution by Warner Brothers in their homeland. Coldcut's label, Ninja Tune, picked the album up for worldwide distribution in 2002 and BBC radio listeners crowned it the "Jazz Album of the Year." Followed in 2003 by Stix, an album that found the band using more electronics.
