SwingDJs

awesome stuff guys, thanks



in terms of the recording equipment, i have heard that before from Peter. and it makes a lot of sense, especially when you listen to some of the older recordings done in this fashion

Hipster Dadddy-O and the Handgrenades?

very funny

I rationalize that with the perspective of "pay the workerbees more" and i will buy your music/movie I am tried of superstars bitching about how we are stealing from them. FU you make millions off your crappy azz music from teenies that dont know better. Perfect example: Jessica Simpson re...
