Only really listening to this whilst posting, Tone wouldn't have been far behind with this post I reckon... It's nice, nice, nice.... Aim's record label and production, as you would expect, is of the highest order. Makes me wanna have a bit of T.J.M...! Standout tracks for me are: Re-Action, The Daddy Feat Niko, The Greatest Bar On Earth & Backwater Prophet... The others are interesting but not quite on the money after the first listen. Enjoyable none the less!

3.-Meditate

Our second find from Genius, although I think I have seen this before, is a little more from Arts. His album 'Transitions' is quality, so even though I haven't really listened to this yet it's bound to be good.

This is a Butters recommendation, first of many I hope. I have quite a few Pink Floyd remixes now, but I always welcome another. Remixed in a Reggae/Dub style there are a few really interesting versions on here. If you like Pink Floyd and a touch of Jamaica then give it a go.

DJ Cam - Lost & Found

The latest album from DJ Cam. It reminds me more of his 'Liquid Hip-Hop' album more than anything else I've heard of his. It's a great blend of Electronic and Hip-Hop sounds with some jazz influence too.

Leisure Records: Barbecue Beats (VA)

This offering from the label Leisure Records is a compilation oof tracks from several of their artists. With some tracks having more of a big-beat sound and others more chilled or downtempo it's eclectic to say the least. There are a few gems here, particularly the chill tracks 3 & 8.

Sade Vs. Paul Nice

The simple premise is that Paul Nice has blended some well-known hip hop beats (Neptunes, Dr. Dre etc.) over some Sade tracks. Pretty good chilled tunes, still going through it but worth a download.
