Hotlane – 2nd single from Berlin duo
Cat#: Gomma196
Release: 18 July 2014
This needs to be released in the summer. Hotlane’s new single is probably working best on your terrace around 9 pm.. when it’s still warm and the sun goes down.. Agnes has a magic voice. And the remixes by James Curd (Greenskeepers, Exploited, Chicago) and Theatre Of Delays are a bomb…
