Svarte Greiner Exclusive

There isn’t much of an introduction needed here as the music selection from Svarte speaks for itself…

‘An alternative 2009 summation based on image and sound rather than words.’

I was inspired to make a mix when asked, and used the last 2 days working on something that I think sums up my year 2009 in ways of music I’ve listened too, artists I have worked with, and songs that ended up beeing soundtracks to happenings in my life at the time.
