I am pleased to announce a new collection of music for your discerning ears. This mix includes music by Umiliani, Alessandroni, Piccioni, Morricone, Whitefield Bros., Astatke, Massiera, and many other soundtrack & sound library luminaries.

Copies of this new mix will be distributed at the next RENDEZVOUS! at Verdugo Bar on Wednesday, April 7th. It will also soon be available here for download.
