Crookers feat. Miike Snow – Remedy (Magik Johnson Vocal Mix)

A week ago my hosting company called in saying that EMPT outgrew it’s server and did over 1 terabyte is traffic.

They basically wanted to blame me for their accounting mistakes so yesterday, I [...]

Calvin Harris – I’m Not Alone (MYNC’s Payback Mix Remix)

The Whiskey Bar last night was mayhem and pure inspiration in equal portions. Richie Rich walked into the bar, went straight to the mic and let the fashion world know that Kristine Elezaj is coming.
