5 Minute Heaven



We all like a nice mix, but sometimes you dont have time to listen to the whole thing.
Thats why God created the 5 minute minimix. Popularized by Annie Mac's Radio 1 show, this kind of minimix is great, because you get to see the skill of the artist, his tastes and its all over in 5 minutes.

We start off with Grum. Quite a lot of 80's disco in here, but still managing to squeeze in some of his own stuff and some Bangalter. And who doesnt like that?

Tracklist included in the tag. (comment section. Visible in Winamp, dunno about other players.)

Enjoy!

PS: I probably wont post until June, due to massive workload (9 tests in May + papers and presentations. Dear teachers: Do you really need to do 2 tests in 7 weeks?)

See you in the summer,
Alex.
