Space Jazz

"The early promise of jazz rock -- that electronics, ethnic influences and rock rhythms could expand the sonic and textural matrix of jazz-- degenerated into the vapidity of fusion." [Joel Lewis, The Wire #130]

      What is "Kozmigroov?"

      Kozmigroov* is a transgressive improvisational music which combines elements of psychedelia, spirituality, rock, soul, funk, and African, Latin, Brazillian, Indian and Asian influences. At its most accomplished, Kozmigroov is both expansive and highly rhythmic, and simultaneously finds connections with the mind, soul and body.
