    This week’s new releases and restocks list is now posted on our website
    (http://www.groovedis.com). Lots of great new titles this week.

    The Groove Dis CD Sampler will be released next weekend at the Winter Music
    Conference. To check out the full tracklisting see the end of the message.
    If you’re not going to Winter Music Conference don’t worry we will be
    sending out copies to all our mail order customers with their orders. We
    will also be distributing it via the retail stores we work with across the
    country. I think once you here it you’ll want to pick up all the records
    featured on it. To help you do that we will be posting a complete
    discography of all the artists featured on the sampler. Look for that next
    week or the week after.

    Groove Dis will also be releasing our first two singles next week. A killer
    5 track EP from Norway’s Sternklang. The tracks are taken from Sternklang’s
    CD ONLY album “NeoLounge” and are a mix of downtempo, breaks and drum & bass
    cuts. The other single is from Chicago rapper E.C. Illa who is joined on the
    “Ill At Will EP” by Chicago’s J.U.I.C.E. and West Coast rappers Rasco and
    Planet Asia.

    Lastly, we will be adding a bulletin board to the Groove Dis website.
    Operational by the middle of this week it will give all our members and
    customers a forum to ask questions, talk about music and find out about
    upcoming releases.
