What a bitter taste in the mouth this morning, we all woke up with sorrow, we thought of our friends from Nice, who are safe, and mainly to all the families who are in grief and pain. There are no words. We won’t go fishing today. This mixtape was scheduled for tomorrow, we post it today. Just for “them” to know, nothing will stop us, nothing will stop the way we live, the freedom we love, the art and music we cherish. It’s not a day to dance, but our answer is “you won’t stop us” our answer “we will still be dancing, enjoying life, and be who we are”. All our thoughts to Nice and the families who are in pain.
Save that mixtape for later. And if you are sad, it might cheer you up. Nice has always been a town of joy, dance, freedom and music. Thanks to ParisDJ.
