SpinTunes #5 Round 1 Review: John Anealio



I've been hoping that John Anealio would compete in SpinTunes for awhile now.  Unfortunately, his schedule has not yet matched up with ours.  So, to at least get him involved in SpinTunes, I invited him to guest judge 1 round.  If you want to learn more about John you should check out his BandCamp page.  Here's a taste of John's music.

Spin.
