    These labels are designed to print on the NEATO 180955 pre-perforated cd labels & card stock! They include appoximately 1/4 inch extra “bleed” around the perforations, in order to account for small differences in printers and software issues. If you print these labels on PLAIN PAPER, you will need to trim the extra bleed area away or they will not fit. Additionally, you should print these with Adobe Acrobat 7 (older versions may not produce the correct results), and you MUST make sure that the PAGE SCALING option is set to “NONE”.

He is working on his own genre. He’s inuenced by artists such as Major Lazer and Dillon Francis, but this is by no means a track that sounds like they made it. He has combined moombahton with tech, trap, and electro house. He calls it “Trappaeton” and I am a HUGE fan of this type of music. CHECK OUT OUR PODCASTS This track is dark. It is very heavy. Yet, there is this infectious nature that will have you doing sexy things. I am getting down and dirty to this track.
