Geko Jones was guest hosting Moglo Radio this week and he put together a beautiful hour of tropical travels. This is good for your in home personal dance parties, I know cause it was recorded in my Bed Stuy apartment and the place was jumping. For real, I was jumping. I got all amped and tried to have a cumbia cd delivered with our tacos, cause they do sell them at the restaurant, but alas the tacos arrived alone. Don’t worry though, I’ll try again next time, I’m determined to have cumbia delivered to my door.

In the meantime, grab the radio show below, put it on, and start practicing your moves for the next Que Bajo dance party on April 9th at APT, as well as every Thursday in April after that.

Also I wanna shout out Chief Boima who has two new productions featured in Geko’s mix, one of them in collaboration with Oro 11 under the name Banana Clipz. They’re both fire and Boima promises a trip out here in the summer so get familiar.
