After a long week of holiday travels, it feels nice to be back home. Thus it would seem fortuitous that I should stumble upon this mix of Dan Croll‘s new single “Home”. The French producer Yuksek reworks the indie pop ditty into the kind of track you’ll want to cuddle up to. 🙂
Dan Croll – Compliment Your Soul
Dan Croll released latest single “Compliment Your Soul” a couple months back, and it just happens to be the perfect feel-good track to compliment your Sunday.
