    Our new releases and stocklist are now posted on the website
    (http:///www.groovedis.com).

    Well, this is a huge week for nu jazz and downtempo fans. Even, if all
    we had this week were the album releases by 4 Hero and Domu it would be
     a good week, but there’s actually lots more to pick up. When it comes
    to drum & bass and beats ‘n’ breaks it’s quality over quantity this
    week and things are a bit quiet for hip-hop and 2-step fans (a good
    week to look over past lists for releases you might have missed). House
     fans have got it pretty good, especially with the albums from Tenth &
    Parker and Schmoov, but really the luckiest people this week are nu
    jazz and downtempo fans who have an abundance of riches.

    Remember, the New Releases and Stock sections will be updated every
    Sunday by 3PM CST. These are just a few of the highlights from this
    week's New Releases List.
