That last post I turned to proper classics and psuedo-kitch for some kind of release. Unsurprisingly, the move was not wholly satisfying. So for a deeper clean, let us turn today to a bit of soul.
As for 'tomorrow', we will be a venturing into an odd realm of throwbacks before straight-lining directly into some slow and fresh disco-tinged house... Finally. Thank you for your patience through this dry spell.
