Here we have a guest mix from ‘professor’ Eddy, a regular to the site who has a show called ‘Soul Searching’ on Laid Back Radio and a Slow Disco 2 podcast. The mix is called Latin Polar Bear Disco. The prof explains:
The idea behind the mix was to put together some refreshing tunes for sweaty days and some warm tracks for chilly days (or something like that…). And I wanted to use the Latin polar bear not only as a metaphor for the music, but it stands a little bit for me as well, because I’m partly French and partly Dutch.
