Michita - Three

Anyone guess what genre has been controlling Foobar for the last week? Japanese hip hop, upbeat ala Nujabes with a few japanese rap tracks, heavy piano base.

I've just got back into Blur for the first time since their debut so i bought Blur and The great escape

It's hotch potch of mellow industrial rhythms, African textures and Dub. Very very good and original.

Terrible cover however open this baby up and you have the last years best Drum and Bass release with a liquid Funk edge. Great club music for the more discerning.

My favourite remixers Kruder & Dorfmeister's own label compilation. Featuring the usual stellar selection of downtempo chilled tunes.

Very very good Hi energy Metal tinged Grindcore.

Before they became The Specials this was the music earning them kudos up and down the country. It's interesting to hear early incarnations of their more famous tunes but it stands up in it's own right too.

It's like Ska has grown back up again and recalling it's origins and ditching the heavy guitars. Very respectable.

Soul hit the Jamacian scene in the 60's and this album is from one of the finest bands around at the time. It is basically a damn good Soul album with a very gentle Ska swagger.

Intriguing, I will definitely be giving that a listen.

Elysian Fields - Queen of the Meadow

Love Jennifer Charles' voice and this album I found to be much better than the other one I have Bum Raps and Love Taps

Torchbearer - Warnments

Grabbed this more for the album cover than anything else, but as far as Melodic Death Metal is concerned it's a very well done album. I think I need to listen to a few more times before anything really starts to stick but I didn't toss it out after the first listen so that's a good thing.

Braille - Shades of Grey

He's been on my recommendation list from Last.fm for awhile now, I finally got around to checking him out and I wish I had done it sooner. I'm pretty sure he's been featured on at least one of the CunninLynguists tracks which is why he sounds so familiar. I need to give his album another listen before anything becomes concrete, but I really did enjoy the album.

Mount Eerie - Wind's Poem

King Crimson - In the Court Of the Crimson King
