TROPICALIZER vol. 4

Dear readers, I know I haven't posted anything for a good while now but watching the world cup can be a full time job trust me...

Anyway here is a little thing that should make you all happy. Here is the fourth edition of the TROPICALIZER MIXES. For this edition, my homie Bauchamp mixed a bunch of his crazy tracks and remixes flavoured with some live MPC pattern.

A really great mix that will make you travel from the sunny beaches of Miami to Brasil wildest equatorial forrest shaking your asses.

All tracks and remix produced by Bauchamp
