Innerzone Orchestra is an 'anti jazz' project which is led by Carl Craig...  
Their debut album is released in the UK on Talkin' Loud August 5 and in the 
US on Astralwerks August 24.

Yes, Carl is from Detroit and is one of the innovators of Techno, but that 
doesn't mean that he can't make music other than dancefloor Techno...  
Techno's primary essence is about breaking down people's perceptions of the 
future, that is what Carl is trying to do with Innerzone Orchestra

I hope that all of you on this list can grasp that techno and jazz have a lot 
of similarities...if not, IDM'ers are much more closed-minded than I thought. 
 For the person on this list who wrote this, I hope you weren't expecting 
Paperclip People and that you did enjoy the show...

pre-Carl Craig show (he was playing nxt, or rather once he started i couldn't
really figure out what he was doing.. it was he and the "Innerzone
Orchestra", and i think he was the guy ranting over the music about the
future of techno and stuff. anyway for 2 tracks it was rough organny jazzy
breakbeaty fast stuff and then a bunch of african guys came out and did
tribal dance sort of things with cowbells. isn't he supposed to be a detroit
techno guy?)  >>
