3. Grace & Gratitude by Steve Lawson (5.0 Stars · 1 Review)
   Experimental/New Age & Soft Jazz mix. Using a thematic approach to this recording, Steve Lawson gives us a story (from experience I imagine) that is expounded upon by each track. Very relaxing & contemplative music.

5. Lessons Learned From An Aged Feline Part II by Steve Lawson (5.0 Stars · 1 Review)
   A wonderful mix of experimental/New Age & soft jazz. Steve plays his bass guitars (6 string & notice guitar"s" - he uses several basses within the music) and shows us that bass can be a stand alone instrument.

11. Tales From The Punchbowl By Primus by Les Claypool Primus (4.5 Stars · 2 Reviews)
    This album is amazing. If anyone wants to hear a talented bass player, pick this album up. Many people consider primus to be funk but i think they are very experimental. Also recommended: Pork Soda and Sailing The Seas Of Cheese by Primus.

    Check this out. Michael Manring experimenting with the new SWR amp. The sounds that come out of this amp are pretty good, not to mention Manring's groove that he has going on. You will enjoy this.

18. MUSIC DETECTED by DEEP FOREST (2.0 Stars · 1 Review)
    Deep Forest is a duo of great musicians who like to weave beats, samples and own music into a strange mix. After their first album "Deep Forest" and their second "Comparsa" this CD contains 13 songs that are too electronic in my opinion.
