Stan Ipcus, artist/dj/producer from White Plains, NY, has recently received some buzz with the release of hist latest record “My Ferris Buellers”. This ode to his Ferris Bueller Dunks has been played on stations such as Hot 97, Shade45, and 89.1FM’s Halftime Show. Have a listen below and also check out some other tracks on his Myspace page. Heads up thanks to Mick Boogie.
