Hello my friends. I assume you are the friendly ones if you are reading this. Shit, it has been so, so long since my last update. Not dead yet though - still dying.
Crohn's Disease has a way of getting under your skin and making you regret the day you were born sometimes. All that really means in internet terms is: no fucking album updates and a pretty boring website. Well I am back. So let me welcome you once again to this fine music website. (heh!) So much has happened in the real world and the online world since we last spoke. Let me summarize it in as few words as possible so we can get on to the music OK.
Here is what I would like to say. Feel free to voice your opinions on the following by placing a comment won't you! It might be easier to say what is shit and what isn't.
FUCK The Simpsons: Once used-to-be-slightly-funny-TV-show turned into absolute pile of crap movie with nothing going for it! FUCK Twitter: The web 2.0 situation brought to an ugly extreme where the saddest members of society post their latest thoughts and actions online for people to keep a constant update on them.what the fuck?? GREAT NEWS: (Lets hope they can conquer lots of other diseases in the near future. This one sounds amazing though) GREAT NEWS: Tanya Andersen Wins and now suing RIAA for fees and costs. Hehe FUCK My ISP: (They introduced a fair use policy.damn.) OK I am getting bored with that already. I suppose it'll soon be time for the old Bob Dylan Radio Shows to start again. Oh and LOST will be restarting on TV too I think.
One more thing. I recently downloaded and watched the most fascinating of movies called ' Come and See'. Or ' Idi i smotri' - It is a Russian movie and you can read about it or (that one contains spoilers) or (no spoilers) Please don't even stop to think about it, just go download it: Hmm. OK here's some music then. Putumayo Presents - Asian Lounge 2005 I always get requests for these Putumayo Presents Collections so I thought I'd start of a flurry of them with this fine specimen. It is pretty much as it sounds, Asian Lounge music.
Summer beats. D3dx9 microsoft. Pettersson und findus. This one is especially good as it seems to get that balance between ethnic and traditional sounds and ambient/electronica sound. If I am honest this has to be one of my favourite Putumayo albums. See what you think.
You can't fail to enjoy a laid back afternoon with some of these tunes meandering through the recesses of your skull. LINKS: Split Rar Archive1, orSplit Rar Archive Alternate, orI swear there will be another update very soon ok.
I even have some links that a visitor here has sent me so I will get those posted. Some good stuff. (as always) Thank you again for still dropping by and another THANK YOU to those who have sent me nice emails and good wishes.
Some of you were even worrying about me. All appreciated though - seriously.

Putumayo visited India and East Asia for its 2002 compilation, where artists like and blended traditional instruments with scratchy hip-hop grooves and lush ambient sounds. 2005's isn't as adventurous. Selections from new age healer ('Oceans of Ecstasy,' from his 2002 collection ) and (the kitschy ethno-disco of 'Eastern Journey') seem like safe picks, particularly when Putumayo's geographical frame is so large. Likewise, whether it's on his own ('Funky Guru') or with a fellow multi-instrumentalist ( on 'Water Down the Ganges'), the results are pretty similar, and pretty standard for the hundreds of chillout comps blending Western electronic elements with Eastern instrumentation and traditions. On the plus side a lilting female vocal helps build some character into the otherwise conventional trip-hop of 'Koyal,' and the shamisen on 'Fukaki Umi No Kanata' is nice even if the track's lounge-tronica backgrounds aren't.
Overall is sufficient for the casual fan - it sustains a recognizably fusionist groove, and provides background information for anyone wishing to explore further. But that doesn't let the set off the hook for not exploring further itself.
