Sound In Light - Free Your Mind



Sometimes all it takes is a song like this to blow all the cobwebs off my winter brain. Beautiful, cant wait to hear more from these cats.
This one is a revision of Amnesty's Free Your Mind from the Now Again Resounds comp.


You may also remember the video from PB Wolf's green screen mix that dropped a little while back..



Seeing Felissimo’s “500 Pencils” brings me back to the days of kindergarten where a brand new pack of 64 crayons felt like gold. 500 Pencils is a new unique idea that takes a simple tool (a colored pencil) and turns it into a creative and impressive idea.

Enjoy
