Springtime in New York- here we go! Spent the morning in the yard with my dogs, where I recorded the sounds you’ll hear at the start of this mix. After some yoga in the sunrise, I hit the studio, did some spinning, then went into Manhattan with my wife for our favorite- Spring St Natural. So. Damn. Good.
Hit Pinkberry on the way back and sat in the park. Headed back to Brooklyn and spun some more.
As if the day couldn’t get any better, we then hit the bodega around the block and found… wait for it… Black Cherry Ginger Ale!? BOOYA!
We then saw a building burning, tons of firemen, and I watched news helicopters circle overhead.
This mix is a stroll through New York, a ride on the train, a stop at a bodega, a cigarette outside on the sidewalk…
Enjoy your week!
