Carmen Rizzo is one of those producers whose influence has been as quiet as it is omnipresent. He's produced music for big names like Alanis Morrisette, Seal and Coldplay, while at the same time creating lush electronic soundscapes with Dave's Lounge visitors Delerium and Azam Ali. He was one-half of Povi, a sadly slept-on duo who only released one album on Nettwerk Records. So when he teamed up with Nancy Kaye and Ireesh Lal to form Lal Meri, it shouldn't have surprised anyone that their self-titled debut album was such a standout. This is a trio that's going places.

All India Radio, the musical brainchild of Australian Martin Kennedy, has been a mainstay on this show since I first played "For Angel" way back on Dave's Lounge #29 in December of 2005. It was the 2008 release of Fall, however, that took All India Radio to another level. Kennedy teamed up with vocalist Leona Prue and a handful of great musicians to put together one of the best downtempo albums of 2008 and possibly the entire decade. This one's going to be hard to top. Here's hoping Kennedy doesn't stop trying.
