Remix Sunday 19: Round Trip Mars

Big thanks to Stinky Jim Pinckney for hooking me so incredibly nice this week. He sent me something like 15 CD's of great music all the way from New Zealand that I was totally oblivious to. All out on his label, Round Trip Mars Records - by artists like SJD (winners of 2005 NZ Music Awards for Best Producers), International Observer (no joke: Tom Bailey from 80's popstars The Thompson Twins, doing grrrreat dub), Phase 5 (Stinky Jim himself + Angus McNaughton), the brilliant Phelps & Munroe... and more. Support these cats, you wont regret it, and they most definately deserve it. Watch out for feature articles on all of these highly recommended acts throughout the summer here on Palms Out. All but two of today's selections are from RTM releases, can you tell which two?
