It’s been one of those non-stop working weeks and plenty of time out and about so tonight we’re taking it easy with a big glass of red wine and our latest down-tempo selection especially curated to keep you warm on a cold winter’s night.

Some down-beat soul from Jungle, Flying Lotus, Tropics, SZA, Mndsgn, D’Angelo, a nice Gizmo and Nick Hakim collab and a bunch of gems from one of our new favourites Jordan Rakei ”“ a super talented musician/singer hailing all the way from Brisbane, Australia.
