This months FK is finally out and Im one of the 10 winners of their EDM album competition!!!! Ive know for quite a while now, and boy was that a hard secret to keep to myself. The entire album is above this post for those of you who are interested in seeing it.
I was so excited when I got the call all those months ago, and now cant wait to see the mag and the LOs that are showcased in there, and to find out who the other winners are - CONGRATS to you all. I was so happy with my finished album, and it was just the icing on the cake to recieve one of the prizes. Talk about happy mail - an awesome boxful of goodies. $1000 worth of product!



Check it all out. Thanks to FK & ASS and all the sponsors for their generosity.
