I spun my friend Lexie’s Breast Wishes Fundraiser on October 9th at the CCA in Santa Fe. It was a great event with many people there to support new ways of approaching breast cancer therapy. She’s asked me to play sexy music for the event and this is what I came up with.

….

This weeks Twisted Groove show is an assorted mix of music. The base sound is funk and jazz with some spoagraphics. I believe it all fits together nicely forming a complete whole.
