New Release… Free Download!

We’ve been so busy with our upcoming festival season, we forgot to release music! To make up for it, we’re giving away this wonderful EP of dark downtempo and ambient tunes by Teig (a.k.a Derek Roberts) — an Atlanta native currently residing in Chicago who has spent most of his life involved with music. His latest release, Chord Collection One is a free digital release for all to enjoy.

Springmix, Vol.2 – R_Garcia

Following in last month’s format, here’s another hour-long mix of high-energy club tunes. This set was spun live by R_Garcia at the ATL Paint Party, which was completely insane! In the coming months, we will be highlighting more talent from the ATL with mixtapes, interviews,  in-studio performances and special releases. We’re excited to “bring it on home” for 2012, and we’ve got some awesome things on tap!
