However on this first day of Autumn, as I’ve noticed how horribly chilly it’s getting here in Sweden, I couldn’t think of another better way to get around it than with a mixtape inspired by a summer that has been [...]

I can’t tell you much about it, because it’s just in the planning stage. But it WILL happen and I’ve already got my first signee, although a real contract hasn’t really been involved.
