[Kahvi Collective](http://www.kahvi.org/) has been one of my favorite music sites since maybe 2006. Every release I can remember has always been of very good quality and included some interesting album artwork. Any Kahvi link I post is generally going to have a link to a full download of the album in MP3 and Ogg Vorbis.

**"Red Balloon" by General Fuzz**
This is [kahvi #216](http://www.kahvi.org/releases.php?release_number=216). Here's what I wrote:
- More beat-oriented; sometimes mysterious
- I listened to these before bed; they had some nice imagery and visualizations

**Dream Lab - Cryogenic EP**
This is [kahvi #186](http://www.kahvi.org/releases.php?release_number=186). I wrote:
- 1st half: Dreamy, thick, emotional. "Cryogenic Suspension II" is familiar.
- 2nd half: More enigmatic, complex, beat-driven. "Chemical Karmasutra" has a signature sound
I think when I said "familiar" and "signature" I meant that some distinctive melodies were involved that were very hard for me to forget.
Some of these same songs are on the Cosmotherapy album ([CARD010](http://www.cardamar.com/releases.php?release=CARD010)) from Cardamar Music. I ordered a copy in 2007-10 and it's one of my favorite albums.
