As it often is, the internet was flooded this week with various bits of audio and video, and although we do our best to post everything noteworthy as it appears, some choice items still manage to slip through the cracks. Luckily, we have Press Play, which collects the cream of the streaming crop every Friday here on XLR8R. The latest edition includes offerings from house heavyweights like Mr. Fingers and MK, XLR8R regulars like FaltyDL, The Field, and Daedelus, and promising upstarts like Dauwd.
