It’s (finally) HOT in Chicago, so we felt like releasing some cool old school vibes with the first of our Frontera playlists.

Here we have about two hours of my handpicked tropical grooves from Beny Moré to Sergio Mendes. I find it swings in a nicely mellow way without calling too much attention to itself.

In other words, it’s perfect for a chill, relaxed evening spent outside. So invite some friends over, mix a few drinks (recipes? start here) and cook up something unexpected.
