Opinion:


When the best Argentinian producer meets the best Romanian producers, what to expect more than some good music?

No. of tracks: 2
Type: unmixed

Tracklist:


01. Mademoiselle
02. Mademoiselle (Martin Buttrich remix)


Opinion:


I know it`s almost 2 months old, but my bad is that I did not hear this track until I heard Darius Syrossian`s VIVa show #019 (a great mix, which you will find at the bottom of this page). Both tracks are in the top 10 for Monique Musique, as it results from Beatport, with the remix being at the top of the chart.
