Alright, my internet is back up. After a week of slogging through linux live cd’s and windows tcp/ip diagnosis tools, I finally fixed it.

Arrgh! My internet connection is down. I’m having to surf the net with an Ubuntu live cd… this is really frustrating. Seems my network card has bitten the dust, which has caused windows to puke and die. If anyone know how to repair windows sockets, let me know!
leutohm – Fluid EP
A smooth set of four tracks that are difficult to classify. Somewhat hip hop, somewhat electro, but definitely worth listening to.
The Big Sleep – You Today, Me Tomorrow
Psychedelic guitar rock. The Big Sleep creates a lush soundscape of guitar progressions mixed in with ambient feedback type sounds to form a Pink Floyd-ish set of tracks on this release.

Well, after about a month of no updates, I”m finally back in business. I”ve been busy recreating the site in php. Now you can get the site displayed in a monthly format, as opposed to the last four years worth all on the front page. Plus, I wrote a backend for the site so I can add new items and edit old ones right in the browser here on bahgheera.com – as opposed to editing my .html file, saving it, opening ftp client, uploading, etc. Much more convenient this way, plus I had a great time learning php. At any rate, let’s get back to the music, shall we?
NOTE: The site will not look completely correct in IE for a few days, I”m still working out some bugs here and there.
EDIT: The IE bug is worked out; the site should look normal now.
Hermigervill – Lausnin
Bring the funk on with Hermigervill. This is an absolutely EXCELLENT album of hip hop breaks, scratching, old school synth lines, funk, and who knows what else is in there. If you can translate the site, please let me know, I’d love to know what language that is. It looks like Norwegian or something. Anyways… enjoy this one – I know you will.
Mikkel Metal – Cassini Pieces
Danish electro – six tracks from the artist and four remixes, Mikkel Metal is very chilled out electronic vibe with a vague reminiscence of dub music.
New London Fire – A Wave Form
Indie Rock. Four tracks of original music plus one remix, New London Fire has a sort of ‘Beatles meet The Grateful Dead’ type sound, with a dash of the Cure. Enjoy!
Nick Schelle – We Should Have Been Done Hours Ago
Electronic breaks and funk well done. Nine tracks of funkiness with a slightly humorous edge. The second track, Kashirai, really stands out – the fast hand drum line really makes the track. Then the organ comes in – perfection. Wrong Man is another good track, it reminds me of the Chemical Brothers track ‘Born Too Slow’. This album is top notch, probably one of my best finds on the net so far.
