On any given Friday, Cool Your Jets Creative releases a new Fresh Friday. a hot and tasty vinyl mixtape with a custom cover. Tracks range from jazz to soul to hip-hop and beyond, with nearly every song ripped from original pressing vinyl, where each pop from the static patina tells a story of that record’s journey.
