Three tunes here for you from Basement Soul Music: A Detonation By The Unabombers.I usually don't post more than two tunes from a compilation but I just reckon that as about 60-70% of my visitors will not have heard of the crew that delivers this one I want to get more than usual out from it.Um, Um!

I am not sure how many of our readers know about where CubikMusik began so here it is.I started CubikMusik in 2002 after moving to the USA in Ireland. I wanted to keep track of what my friends around the world were listening to and vice-versa so CubikMusik began as a monthly email newsletter that had recommendations from friends in USA, Ireland, England, Australia, etc. We got up to over 1,000 sub
