#1 DJ Ayres “Sunshine At Midnight”

WOW!  OK so this is a mix I did for Malibu Rum early last year, and then promptly forgot about.  Nearly 70,000 streams later, it topped Mixcloud’s Best of 2014 list.  To celebrate, I’ve uploaded a “Director’s Cut” of the mix – a slightly different second version which was rejected in favor of the original version I turned in.
