Its very first releases were Back To Love albums, documenting the classic club jams (circa [...]
I don't know about y'all, but I have been out of town for 3 of the last 4 weekends. For the sake of my grades, I can only hope this past weekend was the last one I spend away from home for the rest of the semester. The house terabyte is finally back up so I should have a real post for you as soon as I have a chance to swap my files. For now, I will do my best to share with you the wonder I experienced at The Echo Project this past weekend. Even if you don't [...]
