School started on September 8th, so I haven't been doing a lot; this is my first piece all week, and I wrote it in about 3 hours, so it isn't that great... My definition of not that great is getting better, though... It's a nice piece, I think…

Just another dance mix with some poor transitions. A bit more effort went into resampling, applying effects that I think suit and post-performance touch up. As you can tell, I like it dirty. Critisisms are welcomed.
