Brand New Skip Decoration VA: Japanese Baggy Compilation

If you listened to The Casual Sound episode 10, you heard us remark about a Japanese baggy (think Stone Roses, Happy Mondays, Inspiral Carpets) compilation that Tyler found via the Madchester Rave On blog. For your pleasure and discovery, here’s a direct link to the post about this compilation and details on how to download it.

We also love this blog and recommend you check out the rest of it. Some true gems here.
