Mark B & Blade – The Unknown Launch Pt.2
The concert was so big we had to divide it into two files, so here you can pick up on part two of the The Unknown Launch Party at London's LA2 venue. Featuring Blade supported by Defisis this is one gig you will be sorry you missed.

Justice was a label originally started by Tim Westwood. There might have been one more General Levy 12 on Justice but so far we think the label in its original incarnation was limited to only four releases.
