Whenever you stumble over a promising label or musician, a sampler is a welcome way to dig into its offerings.
"independent sounds for independent souls" as the label, er, labels itself. Many of those sounds come from the realm of the Proggy Rocks (though not from its fat-out reaches).
And this is a looong compilation (about 3 hours!) often indulging in the longer tracks of the featured albums, which is a welcome deviation from usual compilation politics ;-)
Favorite track: The Decayed Reflection (A Verbal Delirium).
