    Look out for the Tosca "Suzuki in Dub" album on G Stone.

    There are some tight remixes from Baby Mammoth, Organic Grooves (Sasha from Codek), Burnt Friedman, UKO and others.

    Just got a new releasse from g-stone last week - Walkner.Mostl "Heaven or
    Hell". (from groovedis if I recall properly)

    It's very g-stone sounding, could almost be K&D themselves, but if you
    like that sound then this is more of it, I am getting into it which makes
    me start to dig out the older K&D stuff as well. From the cover it seems
    this is another production duo. My fave track so far is Rebel Music feat
    Sugar B. - dubby vocal hook carries through with a guitar distortion break
    in the back end of the track. Good chill out tunes.

    All in all good production with that stoney label sound from K&D
    recommended for fans of the "vienna sound".
