    Eindelijk is het zover, omdat de Vlaamse zenders weigeren aandacht te besteden aan de steeds groeiende "Urban" scene in Vlaanderen hebben we het heft in eigen handen genomen. Onder de noemer "ban Ur TV" staat de eerste aflevering online http://www.urban-tv.be + exclusieve Live shows met interviews van kleppers zoals OPGEZWOLLE / THE OPPOSITES/ WINNE & UNIQ in de LIVE REPORT SECTION !!! Dus iedereen die met de scène begaan is vertel het voort en vooral check het uit...

    hey going, 85 minutes not just received some beat variations, it received a whole makeover and is now called daycrawler, please have a listen and tell me what you think about it (again). and btw, dunno if its the final arrangement...so there are still some mistakes in it I think

    thanks for listening and your honest opinion. yeah, if I would do some extra work on it I would definately consider to put some beat changes in it. I am thinking of letting it "as is" just leaving the track as an experiment, or maybe I will completely rearrange it. and thanks for the distinct sound, that was alaways something I tried to accomplish, cause a trademark sound never can be wrong :), btw I could absolutely tell the same bout your sound, it really peaks (?, cant remember the right word) out the masses!
    I wish you the best for your first gig, I bet you are really axcited about it!!! be sure if I would live near you, I would be there.
