PSYCHEDELIA + DRONE SHOW
Having recently discovered both the genres of Psychedelia and Drone and having loved them tremendously, I thought I would start of the new season of the show with a showcase of some of my favourite tracks. My friend Dan also joined in and played some of his favourites too.
We hoped to create a very chilled atmosphere on the day the inventor of LSD died.
