Louche Podcast 094 - Jason Spinks (Kristina Records, UK)

|
|
This week's mix, and our first poddy of the new year, comes courtesy of Jason Spinks from our favourite Vinyl Emporium in London, Kristina Records. Located on the Kingsland Road in Dalston, Kristina has been our go to store for quality deep house and techno tunes since it opened, a shop who seem to share our tastes in underground selections. The mix, recorded by co owner and house specialist Jason Spinks in November 2012, is a hundred minutes of Kristina's trademark sounds; and you can be sure that Jason plucked his selections fresh from the shelves.
