Dear Monica Mania Readers,

I’ve recently created a new blog entitled Musicians’ Galore where I celebrate my favorite songwriters and producers by compiling some of their biggest hits (and personal favorites of mine) in a single Mixtape, so head over there and check out which musician I’ve chosen for the month of October 2008.

Hope you’ll enjoy this blog as much as I enjoyed creating it!

Love always,

Hamada
