Sparkle Motion (aka DJ Yoda & TOBE$) are back with more synthesized chonkyfire to take you higher and higher!

On the return flight from Vol. 1, the duo is back with another hour 80′s R&B breaks, from uptempo boogies to slow drag joints you used to straight groove to, hip-to-hip with a honeydip who smelled just like TCB and watermelon Jolly Ranchers. Read the rest of this entry »

One-two, one-two. TOBE$ & DJ Yoda are back, takin’ it to the bedroom just in time for the weekend.

Word up. Hit the break for the goods & big shouts out to TOBE$ for the materials. Read the rest of this entry »
