"Passport" Best of 2006 : broadcast from 01/08/2007

I feel like I'm always struggling to keep up with all this music around me. But I suppose that's a good thing. Viva Gozadera is the new mix I made for S.O.B.'s, so it's heavy on the Spanish and Portugese joints. I spent way too many hours putting it together, but the mixing is tight and the selection features a lot of the tunes that I've been spinning out on my Thursday night gigs. It's definitely a good soundtrack for a steamy party or pump-up music to keep you sweeping on house-cleaning day.

This latest edition of "Passport" is my extra special best of 2006. Yeah, I know, this should of been up a month ago... but check the selection. Afrobeat, Samba, Peruvian House, Funk, etc. Due to the global format of the show, there's plenty of U.S.- based fav's that don't appear here, but that stuff is easier to find elsewhere. Here in the crate, we keep it Gumbo Funky.
