2016 highlight of the year
Rocking three straight 45s sets for Battle 8 at Section 8 with my Groove Penguin fam. To be surrounded by so many legends and such a killer crowd each round was mental. It was my first proper block party competition, we represented the four elements and it went off. We may have lost the grand final, but that was crazy fun!
prediction for 2017
Too many late nights... too much fun!
