        feel free to add me on there and peep my production!!
        heres a rundown on some the latest releases

        kuba just dropped a new album, i am really anticipating that release, everything that label, chillcode is putting out is so nice, the last kuba album was so great, it only came out in december last year, 6 months later you have a newer one, and even the first one on liquid sound design is super nice, you cant go wrong with any album havng a kuba track, as well as Nada, Jong and Abakus, some of the super greatest stuff in the world!!

        kick bong is super tight, one of my fave albums right now, coming from the cosmic leaf label, all there releases are pretty solid, i wouldnt sleep on any of the releases, sideliner is also pretty recent, and zero cult, and some of the nova natura compilations and also cydelix, red eye express, d batistastos will o the wisp and more

        Anahata - moments album is super complete gem, def my fave album of last year, reminds me of some samurai ninja chilled jedi meditation beats!!

        slackbaba another favorite from last year, really dubby drum and bass shpongle style tracks!!

        a new one by steve hillage and evan marc, havent heard this yet, but havent had the funds as of late to cop this one!! blutech and system 7 colab sounds like a super great album to check out!! i prefer the more downbeat dub stylings of bluetech but combing with system 7 is def a treat!!

        then i have the new interchill album from eat static, a chilled one that is way different than any of there other releases, and more on the level of the songs founf on the interchill compilations!! really nice grooves to go good with a veriety of stuff!!

        the new entheogenic - flight of the urubus, def a nice one to swoop up , alot of songs have this swing to it remnds me of some f the cosmic leaf styles!! even some of the eat static tracks has some that swng to it too!!

        Kalpataru tree - his latest tracks are on his mypace!! super dope psy organic dub grooves, reminiscient of some adam shaikh drift material!!

        gaudi / nusrat fateh ali khan - super great dubbed ethnic grooves one to peep out with the saafi legend on the vocals

        dreamtree project - adham shaikhs latest releases with some nice sitar jam grooves!!

        new ishq- perfect way to unwind and chillout too, yoga meditation, i havent heard the new one yet but im sure turning this one up full blast will be a great experience!

        future sound theory 2 comp from the celestial dragon label has a little bit of both worlds of glitchy chill dub tracks, nalepa has super great track that is freaking nice and gets in your head sometimes, melodic!!

        i Awake off the Ultimae label is so nice, at times the right mood you want at times, Ultimee has this special magic all too reminiscent of mystical sun, and even the new Distant system and other albums from galaxy., human blue, chilling matenda from chillcode, Chronos, labels regulars like solar fields and Aes Dana, and Carbon Based Lifeforms are so nice o chill down too!! any of this stuff live on loud system is such a treat, i wouldnt hesitate if i ha d a chance to see some of these artists live!
