I’ve been listening to this track on various mixes for the past 6 months. I bought it when it got released, and I’m still listening to it. I’m not even close to being sick of it yet. 😝 It just puts me in a good mood. 😊
Cheerful Kiki
Just got back from Philly. I went for my uncle’s memorial. Despite the sad circumstances, I was happy I got to see a lot of my family. I have a huge family and I really enjoy the time I get to spend time with them. Also got to see my homie Daniela, which was a definite win.
The cheerfulness continues because the weather is nice, and yesterday was the first day of spring. I didn’t even complain about going back to the gym this morning, after not going for a week — mostly because I had this awesome Loz Contreras mix to work out too. 😍

Nostalgic Kiki
I’m totally one of those people that’s stuck in the past when it comes to DnB. I do listen to new stuff. I like it just fine, and I do buy the odd track every now and again. But, I still get so much satisfaction from my old stuff. Those tunes makes me so happy. I can mix them for days.
I remember when I was younger, I felt like I had to have the new stuff straightaway. I’m sure that had a lot to do with not wanting to mix old records out all the time. There’s only so many times people wanna hear you play an “old skool” set. 😜 Now, I’m 40, I don’t mix out anymore and I am more than content to just have my 20 year old collection. There are so many awesome records in it, that bring back so many amazing memories.
DnB is the only thing that will convince me to run on the treadmill. Got a little Soul:R mix in the rotation at the mo.
M.I.S.T – Outerspace – Soul:R (2003)
I love bringing this record into the mix. That slow creep tho… 😊
Snow Shmow
You would think I didn’t spend the past 20+ years living in the Midwest, but dang, I’m so over this snow. Can it just be done already? After almost 4 years abroad, I think I just forgot how long it lasts. 😒
If you need me, I’ll be sulking to this beautiful Satl tune.
Here’s the Drake and Jhené Aiko tune the sample came from. 😍

Hogwarts & Kiki
I drive by the lake every morning on my way to work. Sometimes the fog looming over it reminds me of the dementors at Hogwarts. (Chrome recognizes Hogwarts as a word, but not dementors 😂) I love fog though, it reminds me of my childhood growing up in England.

Currently loving …

My friend Brandon just reminded me of this record. It’s amazing that I managed to forget about it, considering the amount of times I played it in my set that year. I didn’t have a lot of records around that time, and I was also full on obsessed with Monica, so in my eyes it was win/win. I don’t know how much of a win it was for the people who had to hear me playing the same 20 or so records over and over though. 😁 Thanks for the dope memory Brandon!
