A Quiet Bump is a dub and trip-hop net label from Southern Italy and under the Creative Commons they give away all their music for free! The compilation, 'Italian Dub Showcase' has two versions of each track (the original and a dub), all from unfamiliar names. Having been working through all the EPs (also all free) there's yet to be a bad track.
