Astonish featuring Mano – My Theme Song (New Track)
Astonish comes through with a slow rolling deep cut called My Theme Song. It’s dripping with heartache and proves to be incredibly sincere. The stuttering beat provided by Flex Cannon gives off the perfect vibe for the stirring lyrics. Mano hits us with a feature on the back end of the track. Relationships tend to get…

Dally Auston – My Life (New Track)
My Life is next level Dally Auston. He always delivers (listen to his album Westside and tell me it’s not amazing) but this is my absolute favorite song from him.

What Inspired Me To Start flowsfordays.com (Personal Editorial)

For those that aren’t familiar, it’s an arts school downtown. I transferred to the college in the fall of 2012 after trying social work at…
