Los Hermanos – On Another Level
This taps into my DJing years. It's a techno record which oozes the melancholic, musical tropes of deep house, made by DJ Rolando and Gerald Mitchell, from Underground Resistance in Detroit. I've played this far too much in the car, but it's great in the car. Tracey uses a couple of the tracks on here to power-walk to as well. [laughs] I love that. So if you see her steaming across Hampstead Heath, headphones in, she's probably listening to this!
