Cold Part One

This weeks Twisted Groove was prompted by the cold weather we’ve been having this week and the start of winter. The show is kind of dreamy, kind of electronic and I believe evokes winter. I play some brand new releases and mix that with older releases. The show starts out with a track from the glorious new release from Aphex Twin. Enjoy…
