This man provided me with the soundtrack to my 2006 - Development. Spiritual Groove is one of the sweetest songs I have ever heard. Hoping to see him in May at the Borderline, London.

the concert today was really amazing. i guess Antoine decided not to play ''Reality'' because that would've been a reminder to those people who had escaped reality during his performance. awesome.
