SESSION 63: At Home With Rose

Softly Softly Synthesiser

Pretty synth sounds tonight. Groove down. Sink some G&Ts. Perhaps some martinis if you are really feeling in the mood. A very sweet and delicious mix tonight.

My recommendation: visit Boomkat and check out their "14 tracks" - a nice themed weekly mix of 14 tracks that you can purchase. All out of the Boomkat catalogue. Two tracks this week are from one of their selections. A great way to hear new music. www.14tracks.com

SESSION 33: At Home With Rose

Synth-tastic Pleasures!

>> DOWNLOAD HERE! <<

Oh my god, I've had fun this week, dredging up 80s treasures and some of the latest synth-inspired tunes. I've been quite giggly with the fun of it all!

Been watching lots of DVDs including If.... which was fantastically good. Working on some fun design stuff at the office and hoping to have our website up in the next few weeks.

It's very late - past midnight and I should be in bed. So no more pissing around.
