Stéphane Horeczko ~ Petite Lune

Once in a while, it’s nice to know that one’s favorite artists are still around.  A few years pass, and one wonders how they are and what they are doing.  Three years have passed since Stéphane Horeczko graced us with the delicate G.

Grzegorz Bojanek ~ Remaining Sounds

Celer & Machinefabriek ~ Hei/Sou
