presents Steve Lhomme's Cool Releases

Every week or so Steve Lhomme, a member of the Chemical List, posts to the list the pick of the new releases supplied by the Juno mailing list. I've compiled this page from some of his more recent posts so, with the exception of the limited editions, you should be able to get hold of most of the tunes listed here.
A printable version of this page is available here, or e-mail me for a text version at chemical@edinburgh.almac.co.uk.
