Hello,
Sorry it's taken a while to get back to you. The CD worked and it's really cool. It reminds me of the jamming we used to do. I'll have to take another listen to get the exact time. I'll leave you another comment later. Peace.

Hey dude, Thanks for the friend request. Technically, we're not a label. We're actually a promotions company. But it's pretty easy to see from the tunes you had up why you would be a Jeremy Messersmith fan. "The House had Stories" definitely had that vibe to it. Good stuff man...
