W_Music’s Cliff Notes is a monthly music event at Kemang’s Cafe Mondo with a simple goal: a place where people can get-together and relax while nodding their heads to various styles of music booming through the speakers. Each month will feature W_Music resident spinners in the form of Bergas and Fat Cat Ffonz plus a well-selected guest performer, disc jockey, or musician who will be asked to share their taste of music with all.
