Matt Stevens - A great guitarist and all round nice chap- please check out his wonderful guitar music- definite hints of Robert Fripp there.
In an interesting (and successful, it seems) experiment he's running you can pay what you want for his excellent 1st album 'Echo' here

The Enid are back!
Was thrilled to hear of The Enid reforming a few months back. Glorious symphonic mainly instrumental music. Best starting point is the 'Live at Hammersmith' cds as heard on Tommy Vance's (RIP) 'Friday Rock Show' all those years back.
They have ambitious plans for gigs next year, new releases, and if you join the 'Enidi' you get the chance to download their catalogue and pay what you want.

Mars Hollow
Really enjoying this band at the moment- a bit of old skool prog polished for the soon to be over noughties.
