    This week’s new releases and restocks list is now posted on our website
    (http://www.groovedis.com). In addition to some cool downtempo and acid jazz
    releases, some hot house 12”s and a couple of limited “promo” drum & bass
    singles we also have new issues of Beware The Cat (with a free CD!) and the
    Spring 2000 Issue of Straight No Chaser Magazine.

    The first ever Groove Dis CD Sampler has now been sent out for
    manufacturing. It will be finished in time for the Winter Music Conference
    (the end of March) where we will be distributing the very first copies.
    After that the CD Sampler will be distributed via the many independent dance
    music stores we deal with across the country as well as being sent to radio
    and press. And of course, all our valued mail order customers will get a
    copy. The full track listing for the sampler can be found here.

    We now have sound samples of some last week’s Scandinavian CDs. Samples from
    YMC and Times Of Madness are up (along with samples from Sternklang which
    have been up for awhile).For more info and more sound samples be sure to
    check out http://www.beatservice.no and http://www.vow.dk .
