Berlin collective Jazzanova is a project embarked by six DJ/producers seeking to explore and put into the mix many different styles into a jazzy-electronic outfit.
Specialists in the art of the remix, Of All The Things is only their second self-written album contrasting with the more than 30 releases they have remixing others. Not considering the dozens of appearances in some of the most acclaimed and finest nu-jazz, chillout and electronic compilations out there.

Progressive Rock/Alternative Rock
http://www.myspace.com/volaband
Starting the review I was wondering if to tag this band as amateur... well they are indeed young and unsigned, but their songs may point out the contrary. 4 song EP Homesick Machinery is a brave stand up by this Copenhaguen quintet, good riffing, good taste and mature composition. Warm voice Mikael Akerdfeldt alike singer and a formidable drummer make the rest.

Frenchman Nicolas Chapel founded it's own solo project Demians with, as he says, 'naive approach', though given it's success it would eventually become a real band with musicians chosen by his own.
