[Dynagroove] EDC was the shit!

[aaron at crunk-house.com]

I have to admit I am a bit jealous of everyone that got to hear DJ Dan VS
Donald Glaude at EDC 2008.  Another friend who's got some 'house cred' in
my book RAVED about the set, so I know it was for real!

Someone on this list has to be able to get us a recording, right?!

Meanwhile, ch-ch-check it out:

> Other peeps I saw Z-Trip (didn't hear much, but loved what I heard),
