A New Years Eve with Mark Knight and Lupe Fuentes at Sound Nightclub in Hollywood is like one of those “big things come in small packages” presents you cannot wait to open.
There is no telling the arsenal of releases and unreleased records these two house music leaders have nicely wrapped up for us, but know that through the grapevine and their own productions, they will have the fresh goods. Cue the gasps.
