Excellent choice, will be downloading straight after work!!!
Happy New Year my friend!!
Here's something funny. My niece made the Blue Bear Monkey for my son this Christmas. We, and the Blue Bear Monkey live . . . in Chicago, just like Kumar.
What are the odds of THAT?
By the way, in case I was ambiguous, I literally mean the Blue Bear Monkey in the picture resides in our family room on Portage Park at the moment.
Hi David. That is an odd coincidence. I found the pic by searching "2008" on flickr, which seems to yield some questionably 2008 related imagery. Greetings from Uptown :)
That's weird, indeed!
Yow K-man, i've been enjoying this compilation sooooo much, that i've been thinking about doing some kind of a mix with the tracks, maybe use some of oblomow's compil... and throw some of my favourite tracks in, .....soon!
I love the idea of mixing with mixes. It's very post modern :)
