TOTAL COSIGN FROM ME. this is the type of mix you make when you’re tired of the B.S. and you just don’t care what people think. Amy Serrata’s “Soul Food” was my surprise favorite – never heard that one before. and the transition from that into Melo-X…fantastic. and again, YOU END WITH THE RAPTURE!!! i deliberately put that album in my DJ bag just so that i’d have “Olio” to play when it felt right.
Heads ain’t ready for this. Fantastic mix, Fave…BRAVO.
