He also drafted Monty Luke to compile Talking Shopcast 09, an exclusive mix of Planet E works.
Little White Earbuds Interviews Dexter
September 1, 2010 – 10:01 AM
If the press put as much store in quality as we do in stylistic consistency, Remy Verheijen might well rank among dance music’s upper echelons.

We chatted with the man best known as Dexter in anticipation of his September 3rd appearance at Public Assembly for The Bunker in New York City.
