    I think that "Compost 100" is an excellent showcase of the label. It's
    one of the most well put-together compilation of the last few years,
    IMO. "No Catetories 4" from Ubiquity goes up there as far as this year
    goes. But Compost has really taken the time to put this nice batch
    together, as all the tracks were exclusive to the disc. It's really
    worth listening to just to see if it'll grow on you.
