DJ SOMOS at Taste of Playa... 3 live music mixes

On September 5th of 2009, I offered my DJ services of Cultura Culture for a new event in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. It is called Taste of Playa and it is where the eclectic restaurants of Playa del Carmen came together to promote their various cross-cultural styles and flavours of food and drinks to the public. For about 10 hours, I provided the multicultural audio mix of World Music ranging from the traditional to the modern with styles and genres from all four corners of the globe. And the best part was the view...ocean blue beachfront, white sands, sun bursting, and the energy of the people of Playa del Carmen!

The DJ set was recorded live and is now posted for your audible listening pleasure. It is found in three parts and they are about 1hr 30min long. The Playlist can be found below. Enjoy!
