It’s been a little while since I last reviewed a release form the Russian netlabel Pulsations For You though I really should keep an eye out for their releases as so they’ve usually been of a high quality.
So it’s nice to see the latest release from them, Pianochocolate’s Morning Coffee 2008 continues that trend with [...]

I’ve been listening to this album for a while now but I’ve never got round to mentioning it.
I found it a while back whilst I was hunting around for some singer/songwriter type stuff to listen to and this one caught my attention almost immediately. Great songwriting, some great guitar work and a really unique sound. [...]

I don’t listen to a huge amount of classical music but now and again I’ll have the urge so it’s nice to have some decent recordings. Classical radio (At least in the UK) goes for the popular route which inevitably means playing short pieces “you might have heard on that advert” which is nice but [...]

My favourite lounge electronica heads Thievery Corporation are back with a new album, Radio Retaliation.
Radio Retaliation

Nothing particularly innovative, just the usual effortless beats they seem to churn out every so often. If you want some polished, easy listening you can’t go far wrong with this.

I’m currently enjoying this free album from Singer/Songwriter Sean Fournier. It has a really nice laid back feel to it which is suiting my mood tonight.
Go listen to it, download it, spread it around. He is clearly trying to get some recognition and publicity by giving his work away free and since it [...]

I can’t say I’m a huge David Byrne fan although I have listened to Eno’s stuff occasionally but it is interesting to see more big names getting behind the idea that ‘free’ or at least ’sort of free’ can be a good thing.
OK you can’t download the album for free but they are [...]

Just spotted this nice free hip hop album from the always reliable rapper MURS and producer 9th Wonder.
If you’ve not heard MURS and you want something a little more intelligent than the normal chart crap they call hip hop, then you really should check this album for a taste. it’s got a nice laid back [...]

The Guardian, rather than donning wellies and throwing up in a tent are getting in the festival mood by giving away a free compilation album of music from acts at the festival.
I’ve not listened yet and obviously being out of touch with “tha youth” I’ve not heard of half the bands on the playlist…although I’ve [...]

Fantastically humble album titles aside this is a lovely chilled collection of ambient piano improvisations which reminds me of listening to Brian Eno at university.
I’m no audiophile but I love the warm sounding recording and it’s just the sort of thing I like to listen to very late at night when working on [...]
