I couldn't wait to see the playlist!! Who is Six Degree? Is this another Putumayo? Oh by the way. Thank you for introducing me to Putumayo. I just order Six degree 100. I can't wait to learn more about this company? Thank you and WCVE staff for a great show!! Electric crowd sounds good too. How long have they been on the air?

Hey, thanks for your question. Sx Degrees is another great record label, like Putumayo, that put out some really interesting compilations and they handle some cool artists, too. Another good label is Luaka Bop, founded by David Bryne. I love getting compilations because I get to sample a whole bunch of different artists and see who I like.
Fas for the Electric Croude, I think George will answer that.
