Notes

This is a double-CD (have one data-CD and one audio-CD). Featured musicians are FTZ, Zipp, Amino Acid, Andreas Viklund, Bert, Genosha, DJ Maze (Oona), Lagoona, Ranger Rick, Jazztiz, Groove Unit, Wayfinder, Bert, Mark Rednik, Mental Floss, Maelcum, Genosha, Zinc, Vivid, theHacker, and many, many others (See below for full track listings). This CD-Recordable is made by hand by Dan "Maelcum" Nicholson of KFMF. The covers look a little "home-made", but that is part of the charm with these CDs. The music style is trance, chill-out, techno, dub, and just weird and wonderful stuff, some of it very relaxing in a strange, upbeat kind of way. Cosmic, weird, atmospheric. I would have to say that this CD is a great example of the rewarding listening pleasures you can get if you look for good music in the underground, away from the mainstream. Recommended!
