Hefði svo viljað að ég hefði kynnst Jazzinum fyrr enn því verður víst ekki breytt, er samt allt að opnast. ég vind mér í að brenna smá demo enn ég er engann veginn búinn að ná sándinu sem ég vil á þau... enn það er allt að opnast líka :)
já ég er alveg sammála. Ég fæ alltaf nett sjokk þegar ég er búinn að hlaða þessu upp hérna.. þeir strippa Bandvíddina niður í ekkert. enn þetta gefur mynd.. ég væri ljómandi til í að fá hjá þér disk í bílinn sem ég kýs núna að kalla .... SILFUR DJÁSNIÐ...
JAZZ er æði. sérstaklega þegar hann er blandaður í svona House.. þar ligg ég alveg flatur .
