Dear friend !
I am happy to invite you to another urban peas radio session recorded live in my kitchen here in Berlin, last weekend on May the 17th. August and me we had been playing a gig with our Ljiljana Petkovic Orchestra project the night before... Having August here in my house as a guest we did not waste any time and recorded did this radio session for you!
Hope you have as much fun listening to it, as we had recording it ! August came up with some really exotic tunes from places like Pakistan and Cuba and the whole session turned into a short trip listening around the world! Njoy! We had a lot of fun recording it and hopefully you have the same feeling when you are listening !
Lot's of love from a sunny Berlin !
Manou
