Here goes... current top chews:

1 Spiritual Vibes - Before the Words
sweet vocs, spiky ac.guitars from Japan
intimate and classy

2 Various - An Endless Journey Vol 2 And the Trip Goes On
nice tracks from Omni Trio and Filla Brazillia
some funky drum'n'bass later on

3 Various - Pulp Fusion
wow this is raw, can't get enough of this one

4 Shrii - Drum the Bass
chilled ethnic flavas from Calcutta

5 Various - Cafe Del Mar 4
more psychedelic this time round,
w/some d'n'b thrown in for good measure

7 Square Pusher LP
ingenious drum programming and Jacoesque bass playing

7 Various - Totally Wired 15
some nice d'n'b/triphop here
a couple of lame tracks too

8 Jhelisa - Language Electric
kinda dark ambient meets soul jazz
takes a while to grow on you but worth the wait

Also worthy of mention:

Various - We are the Knights Who Say Dot
far out d'n'b and electro-funk from Sweden

Gerd - This Touch is Greater Than Moods
funky jazz/electro-fusion from Rotterdam
