Some of you have had problems downloading my new August DJ mix (Monkey Business) so I’ve just re-uploaded it to soundcloud, with a new link which seems to be working fine.

This mix has been done with my Pacha Ibiza residency in mind and is a touch groovier than some of my earlier sets. All feedback is greatly welcomed to jonty@skrufff.com.

IF you still have problems downloading please email me at the same address and I’ll send you a fresh yousendit link immediately.
