Sol Power live at Almaz – 6/12/09 (pt. 2)

Mixes July 31st, 2009

solpowerlive

You should download this because:

- Summer’s winding down and you want to squeeze as much out of it as possible.

- You’re having a house party and can’t afford a DJ.

- You miss Meistro, who’s been in Nigeria all summer.

- You need something to hold you down until the three of us can do this again.

- You’ve been feenin’ since I posted up part 1.

- You need to cut loose to some raw dog afro-funk.
