This is a really great listen - always banging songs and mixes and the flow of the music is just seamless. Cannot recommend highly enough
Love it !.. so great to not have to decide which album or a " mix " my own Playlist.. very cool to hear songs I've never heard from my favorite genre and decade ( early 80s especially) of music.. There were so many great songs that would be lost or never heard again if not for this excellent podcast .. I'm a painter and I listen to these all day.. makes the day go a lot easier.. I am extremely grateful for this podcast!!
Who knew I needed a club mix of Sussudio?
Brilliant monthly podcast with a lively mix of classics, remixes and more. A new equally great 90s podcast was established but seems to have disappeared after 4 episodes.
This podcast is totally radical dude!
