Apologies for the radio silence over the last couple of weeks - Langer and I ended up going on a very last minute snowboarding trip and tools were downed almost instantly with scant regard for our adoring public.

Dark Comedy: Beatsy, thick bassline house extravaganza. Booty-shaking friendly! [...]
