What We Say

If you've got a lively, sun blessed lively ahead then take a trip back to the sounds of Paris' long gone, sweat drenched zouk dance floors; Ibiza's pioneering, cosmopolitan open air clubs & 80's Euro disco, word of mouth fuelled hotspots with this great misty-eyed LP from Stella to launch the Cosmic Romance imprint.
