Nemo's Essential Mix to Air Saturday!




My buddy Nemo (Scott) who lives in Ottumwa, IA is a drum and bass & jungle DJ that can spin records like a mad man. I asked him if he could make "The IC Essential Mix" an exclusive mix to get you pumped up for this Saturday night and also get the year started off right with a badass essential mix! Remember that every week this year will be a different performer and this semester should be near completely full of all exclusives! Get pumped, it all starts Saturday at 5PM!
