I'm not sure what I meant when I said I wanted a "jazz" version of Alcaline. I don't like the way the song is produced -- in particular, I don't like the electronic processing on the vocals. (It sounds like they're applying a "Cher" vocoder effect, among other things.)
The vocal on Javanaise has only reverb on it--- that's how Alcaline should have been done.
