There are a number of new releases that we go to bat for in this episode: Omar, Marc Mac as Nu Era, Tall Black Guy, Elle Stilnovo, Jesse Futerman, and Art of Fresh, to name a few. The future of electronic music is in very good hands as artists like Machinedrum and The Range clearly demonstrate. Full-on dancefloor insanity is represented through Stan Smith (respect due to producer Daz-I-Kue on his cut - it's a monster). From the deep tribal feel of Irfan Rainy and Baba Israel's "Freedom Music" to the contemplative reminiscing of Guru's greatness from Marco Polo and Talib Kweli, there's a lot to talk about in this episode. Then again, why about talk about it when it's best to just let you listen.

So please listen and hopefully enjoy. Thanks much.
