Muzikjunki & Myu Myu – True Or False (Belocca’s False Dub)

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

Muzikjunki

& Myu Myu
“True Or False”
(Belocca’s False Dub)
Dani Hageman aka Muzikjunki teamed up with his two Myu Myu maties to produce this wicked quirky tune called ‘True Or False’. Where did they get that title from ?Wel l? The synth stab has been produced in such a way that you wonder if it sometimes plays a false note or doesn’t i t ? That’s the question and your answer peeps.

On the remix duties shooting star Kid Massive, who skillfully out does his name and Hungary’s greatest Belocca, treating us on a False Dub.
