JIRO'S SUMMER MIX

If you didn't already know, me and a dude called Jiro used to run this blog together and everything was groovy. But then last year he left to do his own thing, which massively pissed me off at the time, but I got over it eventually (sort of). Although we argue and beef all the time, we're still BFF (no homo).

Anyways... As well as being a hugely talented illustrator and the best-dressed guy in Dalston, Jiro also has superb taste in music. A couple of days ago I asked him to make me a mixtape of Balearic/Cosmic vibes to get me through the coming Summer. Here's what he came back with. It's a smash, I think you'll agree.

Download it here and ENJOY. Thanks Jiro!
