Bossa Breaks + VACATION

To thank all of you for 100+ downloads of the Beat the Grid EP (in one week!) I've put together a second mixtape for you to enjoy. The music flows seamlessly from track to track beginning with tight bossa mixes transitioning into heady break beat territory going heavy on the percussion. So you can really get into the groove. Trust me you have never heard The Bamboos like this (unless of course you're familiar with this remix). thanks again for all the support. Please Enjoi
