Hace días, cuando arranqué la página de agosto del calendario, mis pulmones se llenaron de aire y comenzaron a oxigenar mis pensamientos.

A piece on Ibiza-based NuNorthern Soul (Phil Cooper's label) and their new multilingual release Cofio Recorda Remembrance, a gorgeous track with the unlikeliest cast of contributors!

Joan Bibiloni
