Dear friends,

This is my new mix. At the Eastern Gate.
The entrance of an imaginary country without borders. Where the sun shines like a disco ball and people gather to dance.

Something for the speakers.
Hope you like it. If so, please do share it among your dancer friends and let us end the year in style.

Till we meet again (can't wait),
Zé

At the Eastern Gate is the entrance of an imaginary country, A piece of land without borders, A colourful mindscape to the soul. Where people feel safe and take care of each other, Where people gather and dance. Happy 2021 & till we meet again, Zé .
