DUBBLE D: Thud (2013)

Let’s do the Timewarp again as the Greek label’s new one from Dubble D lands with a Thud. Well more of a mild breaks nod and a clap really. The Belgian producer’s recent mellow midtempo contribution to the label’s Lime Sorbet Vol. 3 comp. gets a dedicated release with no fewer than four remixes.
