I prefer Deja Vu to Freefalling, but that's a solid 12".

yeah, 'deja vu' is great too, and catchier, 'freefalling' is just more blissed out and sun-scorched, both definite summer jams tho

Is the DRAM song sampling a Nintendo game song? It sounds very familiar but can't pinpoint where I've heard it before.
Anyways, sounds good.

The Odissee one is great because it demonstrates that you could easily sample Stereolab in hip hop and it would sound awesome.
