Dave Clarke
Blue On Blue

Skint

WE SAY

We've found Dave's album to be be one of the best this year, mixing many styles old and new, to produce something incredibly fresh. Blue On Blue isn't scheduled for release as a single but it's an album highlight, with its tough hip hop electro blend and tougher war-related lyrics. Devastatingly effective.
