It is goddamn cold outside. I can hear the rain clashing against my window. The prospect of having to drive my bike to work through this November autumn weather is not something that makes me particulary happy. If only there was something that could relieve me from this white people problem. Well, there might be. And - surprise, surprise - it might have something to do with this months mutecast! If only I could indulge myself in some sort of festival vibe. A beachy, housy, funky, washed out, balearic, sunny, long nights, drowsy, lush but thumping and dancable vibe..
In between all our party planning (the 26th of July we are setting up camp in Amsterdams' Melkweg) we managed to get hold of Georgian Gacha. Recently signed to R&S Records (Apollo) with the track "remember", which we thought is quite impressive considering R&S is (or used to be) home to Jaydee's Plastic Dreams, Aphex Twin and System 7 a.o. We were lucky enough to get him enthousiastic and with this months mutecast he delivered just the flow we were hoping/looking for. Enjoy!
