Ubiquity just re-released the two albums "In the Basement" and "Awakening" by The Pharaohs. If you are low on cash, don't even think of trying to get one of the originals one day and be happy, that good music is still getting a repress from time to time.

Let's put the UEFA Euro aside for a moment and let us be Italian fans for just 15 minutes. (After that we will of course crush Italy in tonight's game)

BQ:Ram caught my attention for the first time with their fabolous and diverse album "Blue Sand City" with the extra jazzy track "Classy (feat. El Da Sensei)". The Italian producer duo is now back with the "The Day Before I Loved You" EP, which is a small collection of hip-hop beats with some minor electronic influences. The electronic synthesizer are merely to be seen as delicate accentuations, the tracks still conserve a warm feeling. Whereas "Fog Sparks Glances" is a nice downtempo track, "Dunes (feat. Milly)" is as smooth as Andrea Pirlo's penalty kick against England and features some rap in Italian.

Get it via bandcamp for some small money.
