Well ok, I just couldn’t resist doing another mix so soon after last one posted last week-end, but you know it’s been more more than 2 months since my last DJ gig, and the next one won’t be before the end of January… So here is a delicious selection of ultra rare mambos, pachanga cha cha cha, plenas, bombas, guajiras, and of course a couple of supra merengues. let’s just say I’ve been waiting a long time to blend my favorite merengue tracks into one selection, so here it is. Truly hope you’ll enjoy this one as much as the other mixes available on this blog!

Cuba Libre (blended by DJ KOBAL)

Born in Alsace (France) and based in Montréal since a few years now, Jerome Decis – DJ Kobal – is a true record digger with his 20-year experience! I’m very proud to have had this amazing DJ and pal along for the Canicule Tropicale ride since the beginning of it all back in September of last year. We started pretty low profile in a few local bars until we got a big opportunity to play at the Montreal International Jazz Festival in July 2011. Then the rest is History. Ah well, that’s not true… The History has only just begun for Canicule Tropicale!

Well enough talk now and let’s get down to business! I asked Jerome a couple of weeks ago to record a first mix for the blog, so he kindly asked me which style I would like to get. So because I don’t have a lot of cuban stuff in my record collection (yet!), why not make it an AFRO-CUBAN MIX? Well here it is folks! Missing this killer killer selection would definately be a major fail if you ask me…!
