Then we travel from soulful house to broken beats with Th’Aquisition. And span even more continents with Onno Paloma’s set. We’ll also have Radio Palmera on deck in case you were missing some Latin rhythms.
And then we go home, completing another great year of DÂK. Unless you want to help us build down, gnagnagna😘
