Fourteen fresh tracks for your backroom pleasure... heavy doses of jazz funk, downtempo, dub and breaks for cinematic moods 'n' grooves. Libra music' s sister label "octoberon, urban listening" kicks off with a showcase compilation album selected by Blend a.k.a George Mandas,

featuring fourteen exclusive tracks - released for the first time - with a wide variety of moods and grooves from some of the best electronic acts and artists most of them based in Greece.

Compilation starts with a cover on the 1960's northern soul classic "Night Owl" produced by the southeast London duo Papadoc and continues with a mid-tempo delight by the U.S. Florida based artist Greg Long (Citrona Recordings), things are getting a bit darker when Blend drops his broken dub-funk and then a bit more bright with Paramount (blend + dj lo-fi) remixed by the highly acclaimed Athenian duo Hyplar .

As we move deeper Alma Calma submits his unique brazilian influenced sound and Ubiq is lifting things up with his euphoric and funky drum & bass.

Then, the lo-fi/cubanism on Havanaman by Fidel Son followed by Digital Alkemist's interpretation of downbeat meets Latin and Chariwari's (Leon Sega) mellow guitars and hip-hop beats makes "backroom sessions" very hard to fit in a category, under a specific style or trend.

Authentic tunes, simply good music, driven by instincts. .sounds, directly from the heart and the mind.

Sit Back, and enjoy the music.
