SINDEN ON KISS - CELEBRATING 20 YEARS OF NINJA TUNE


Remember when I posted a few of my favourite tracks from one of the dopest labels coming out of the UK, Ninja Tune? They've been doing music for 2 decades and Sinden (who played a killer set at The Social last night here in Toronto), alongside Coldcut (Ninja Tune founders) put out this Ninja Tune mix on Sinden's radio show. Check it out if you like "forward thinking music"...

Then I hopped over to Mod to catch Nero... it was rammed
