Munk – Violent Love (Maxi)

Release: 12 November 2010
Cat#: Gomma DT021

Today Gomma releases the new Munk single Violent Love. With fat fat remixes by The Twelves & Social Disco Club.

It seems this is a real hit – as the song and the video are on millions of blogs since a few days. The song features Parisian singer Clara Cometti (former member of Koko Von Napoo and keyboarder of The Teenagers) and is taken from Munk’s “Mondo Vagabondo” 5 track E.P.
