New AntVala End Of The Summer Mix Jamz set to drop tomorrow via the blog featuring a collection of songs inspired by this past season!  I’m putting in the final touches and digging from both my crates, cds and files to perfect such a soundtrack. Not really sure what to put on this mix but so far I’ve got a few cuts and should have all finalized by midnight!  I am also going to design the artwork as I do the mix at the same time.  Yes! Turntables, Serato, Pro Tools and photoshop in full gear to create my homage to this past Summer!  Check back tomorrow for the mix, the download link, playlist and art!  It’s going to be amazing!!
