Hi Tristan! Cheers for befriending! always great to get in touch with fellow musicians from Melbourne. Lookn forward to check your music out live, somehow i can't get your player started right now-will be back to check it out! You should look out for some live sets of mine as well!

Next one is 7th Sept@Eurotrash Bar/CD Launch of Polynate Sampler, which has a new RS-Track as well as many other great downbeat/chill electro artists from Melbourne!)
