Getting To Know You Vol. 1

First time we've released it digitally in its entirety (so far, we only had a teaser) but here it is in all its glory! Me & Cutso's baby...a project very close to my heart. We created the concept for this mix over breakfast one day in San Jose, because we both realized how weird our musical upbringing was. We both had bouts with new wave, pop-punk, metal, latin freestyle, and of course a heavy dose of g-funk...so we wanted to make a mix that was something like a soundtrack to our lives thus far. Each song has special significance to us-and since this is Volume 1, this mix just barely scratched the surface to our eclectic history. Volume 2 is in the works and will be coming out soon...stay posted!
