    12inch / I'm The Virus! / Bpitch Control

    While a couple of the tracks do seem like filler, the cream of the crop make this single well worth your while.

    Lee Anderson

    12inch / Rumpsteak EP / Shitkatapult

    This here is some funky tech-house - each track seems to stem from a piece of actual funk music, put on repeat and pushed to the limit.

    12inch / Crystallize & These Days b-w Trace & Thursday / Bpitch Control

    When you listen to other Bpitch Control releases, it is the cool sounds in the tracks that hit you and draw you back again. This EP is not like that - the voice is presented front row center

    Hot Snakes

    CD / Suicide Invoice / Swami

    If this record does not receive massive airplay on our favorite college radio station here in Boston (that's WZBC for those of you without a clue) I swear I am giving up on you people.

    Barbara Morgenstern

    10inch / Eine Verabredung / Monika Enterprise

    Barbara Morgenstern continues to grow on me with each an every listen - and my interest has risen triple-fold with the Eine Verabredung 10inch record which contains 5 instrumental tracks and new mixes.

    Ten Benson

    CD5 / Black Snow / Cottage Records

    Benny, Paul, Jonny, and Chris are jokesters who have a wit that comes through clear. All three songs on this EP (including a Yoko Ono cover) have a Christmas theme to them.

    Welcome To My World

    CD / various / Irritiant

    I can safely recommend 'Welcome to my World' as well as 'Irritant Number Nine,' and I really hope the label continues with releases of such high quality.
