Fev to Brisbane? So what he was drunk in public - he's a footballer, not the Pope. Coleman Medal winners don't grow on trees and we didn't get anything back from the Lions that will help immediately. It's going to be tough to replace all those goals, doesn't matter how good the midfield is if you don't have anyone to knock it through the posts.
Hi, My new release 'maturity' is now available at all digital shops including beatport... the track "soundspooning" has already entered the beatport techno charts at place 54... thank you for your support.have a good day... Nadja Lind
Hi friends, finally, it's done...the brandnew track of "reminder" in collaboration with "Rapha" is released today. The track "Beyound the Clouds" fascinates with a fantastic, classic melody, which has been well reproduced in all remixes. Daniel Kandi's 147 Remix is a really bomb on the dancefloor Thank you for your support...
Just saw the Grand Final (on delay), my condolences. At least they fought hard until the end and didn't just piss it away like Carlton in the Elimination Final
Hi, [Kelvin] Everything well? I’m here with a new about my work. It’s the releasing of a remix I produced this summer for Future Shock Records. The track is featured by the female singer Birgit (an incredible voice, for my taste) and it has been a great honour for me to get the chance to work with this Estonian singer. In this case I’m presenting commercial dance music, not trance or electro-trance so I guess it’s an easy listening. Anyway, you have the right word. If you are interested in getting this remix for radio shows or whatever, please, don’t hesitate to contact me. Kind regards and much respect from me.
hey, sorry for losing contact like ages ago im shit at keeping contact with anyone who doesnt force me to talk to them :s so i think im just going to check up on you every few months or so :) so how are you? hows the dj'ing thing going?
