i've also been really really digging "Doubts and Convictions," an album by The Troublemakers. i'd guess i'd categorize them as trip-hop, but the french group's musical style is more upbeat than a lot of trip-hop. they also use a lot of great samples -- both vocal and instrumental...so their songs have great old bossa nova, jazz and funk rhythms. just a very jazzy vibe going on here.

FRENCH group? What are you, some kinda communist, boy? Why don't you listen to some AMERICAN music, like Toby Keith or Daryl Worley? Or have you forgotten?
