Happy Friday and holidaze!
Bit of a grab and go for today's show with a small sprinkling of Xmas musical cheer.
Focusing mostly on more recently acquired releases collecting digital dust on the hard drive with a slow climb in tempo but trying to keep things smooth and warm throughout.
Truly a pot pourri of genres and vibes.
Thank you for taking the time and I hope you enjoy the ride!
