TeeFLii x Mr. Mitch – 24 Hourz x Feel (Rabit Blend).

I’ve been fiending for this edit ever since Mr. Mitch played in his Valentine’s Day mix for Dazed. Attaching instrumental grime to TeeFLii works so well perhaps because the sparseness isn’t such a far cry from the DJ Mustard beats that animate ratchet & blues. Here’s hoping this turns into a..
