Dezeen Super Store at 38 Monmouth Street has been open for a few days now, and we've been playing Dezeen Music Project tunes through our brand new Big Jambox, which is on sale at the shop.
Setting up a pop-up is always a hectic business, so we've been very appreciative of all of the great chill-out tracks that have been coming our way. This one is a new track by Remote Scenes, who we originally featured back in May. Make sure you check that track out too.
