Now.

Anyway, to celebrate this re-issue of an ancient release from the very beginning of the Rakkaus catalogue *lol*, here is a playlist with some technoid cuts for you all to enjoy.

Ernesto Sings

Hi all!

Last year I was in the process of trying to put together an album (for a label that shall remain un-named) under the name Ernesto Sings. One of these have already been put out in Japan a few years back. The basic idea was to do a compilation of various collaborations I've made through the years for those who didn't know one track but knew another (that's what happens when you work with a host of different producers).

Anyway, the album never left the ground and I've decided - while you're waiting for my first release on Pinku's and my label Rakkaus Records - to put together a playlist that gathers some bits available on Spotify.

Please enjoy!
