Dsico – Touch Me (Not Like That) EP [download page]

Dsico says: - The Aborted Album: A collection of almost completed songs recorded in the years 2006 – 2007. I suppose I"ve been a bit busy with other things over the last couple of years and never quite managed to finish these off as an album. Rather than simply let them languish on a hard-drive I thought I might as well put them out in some sense… So here is the entirely free, reasonable high quality MP3 copy of the so called album… -

our tips is the opening track Come Around
it will make you move, go and get the rest!
