Somethin' Else last Friday











Mbar in Helsinki is not really known for uninhibited dancing and euphoric disco atmosphere. However, it's a nice, relaxed bar with quite a knowledgeable audience most of the time. Together with my buddy Matti we packed a coupla bags full of some vintage funk, disco, boogie and jazz and headed to Mbar. It was nothing groundbreaking, but a cosy evening of beer drinking and vinyl spinning, nevertheless.
