Here is my personal playlist from last night’s opening set at Afro Funké. Just to switch things up a bit, I wanted to start of with some good, danceable soul vibes before breaking into the heavy world music that we normally champion. Jeremy jumped on at about 11:30pm and we bounced back & forth with a few tunes at a time for the rest of the night. We drew out some amazing stuff from one another! Hit me up if any of the titles sound interesting and I’ll let you know where to find them. Happy digging.
