Notes on the Mix ///

"When I prepare a mix, I often pick one idea and expand on it for the whole session. This one explores a combination of bass, breaks, percussion, with elements of dub and world music. This sound just makes my body dance; it has something akin to the beats I grew up dancing to, melded with the more forward thinking production I find myself leaning into on today's dancefloors. Hope u enjoy<3"
