Don't worry, we've got you covered. 
 
What do you suggest SDMP folks? We're glad you asked. 
 
We've got just what you're looking for:

Cure For Reality" and you can get it for them right here:

You're probably wondering, How do we know it's any good? 
 
Don't take our word for it. Here is a review of "A Cure For 
Reality" from the end of the year music edition of 
Phosphorescence Magazine:  
 
“A Cure For Reality is musician Ian C. Bouras' 2007 solo 
debut CD. This New York, NY instrumental artist describes 
his music as "Reggae, Latin, Dance, and Dub," but also 
manages to include futuristic and electronic effects, 
resulting in an eclectic and stylized blend. Some standout 
tracks include, "The Call" - music with a Latin flavor that 
just melts into, "Buttercup" with its perfect guitar 
and a comforting tone that seeps into your consciousness, 
and "Sirens" - a mood setting piece that would fit nicely 
into the soundtrack of some urbane show. The title track "A 
Cure For Reality" starts off strong, wavering on the edge 
of brash, then is smoothed over with the signature 
heartfelt echo of Ian's guitar, and the listener can sit 
back and ride the waves of sound to the shore. This artist 
is quite adept at varying the pulse of the music to 
seamlessly merge different flavors together as would a 
master chef. Well done! **** Pretty Darn Good!” 
--- Lily Emeralde and Emma Dyllan (Phosphorescence 
Magazine)  
 
OK! We're blushing a little bit.

$5.99). We know they'll enjoy the music, and they can also 
use the case as an extra coaster for those unexpected 
holiday guests. You're not alone, we get them too. 
 
See you in 2008! 
 
Holiday Hugs from everyone at SDMP Records!
