Really quickly, wanted to thank everyone who follows the blog, and my extended family at Knocksteady for the support of my last mix. You'll definitely hear some references to Everything is Amazing in the form of remixes and re-edits. I skipped a couple of Octopicks and decided some of the tracks would be better off in the form of a mix. I've been really feeling Chase & Status, Dj Fresh, Myrryrs and Nero. Enjoy the multiple tracks from those artists. I would also like to take this time to invite you all out to our next Shiver party, officially being held on Sept 30th @ The Crosby in Santa Ana. I'll be dropping some more tracks in this vein and others along with some special guests!
