About the CD:
This CD's quality is 100% undisputed. It's memories to my early 20's is unrivalled. Moulding the laid back sounds I started listening to by mixing laid back house, downtempo, hip hop, soul and plain and simple incredible music into one cd. For me, it really is a seminal mix and one which holds endless memories of lazy weekends of Sunderland. Enjoy and share x

Wichelroede - Linkmiegels Vol 1

They said it couldn't be done. A single USB couldn’t handle so much sauce. So many styles couldn't be mixed without losing the crowd. It might have worked in the 90s, but times have changed. They said a lot of things… But on the 14th of July, at the Ritual Gatherings festival in Bulgaria, the naysayers were proven wrong. 

Many there that day said it was the moment they first gained pelvis awareness. At least 17 people were reported to have called their mothers immediately after the final track. An overlooked Bulgarian techno legend who hasn't spoken at a party since 2005 set his Rakia on the bar, nodded approvingly, and uttered a single word… “добре”

A lone cassette tape made it out of Bourgas that night - surreptitiously recorded by an unknown local. We're thankful that this moment in dance music history was captured, for it is a testament to the power of good music, the indefatigable human spirit, and the long-standing love between Afriqua and the Bulgarian people.
