PICKS OF THE WEEK:
- New York‘s hardware-based electronic DJ/producer and The New U.S. Government head Michael Padgett, Ole Mic Odd “Get The Fffuck Out” from V/A “The Best of NYH Part 2” second part of two-volume compilation to celebrate 5 years of Tilburg‘s New York Haunted label
Like it or not, Tilburg-based New York Haunted runs by Vincent Koreman a.k.a. DRVG CVLTVRE is undoubtedly one of the most eclectic and progressive labels around, always ready to highlight a consistent batch of talented young producers.
