Made in the shade

Still somewhat of a work-in-progress even after months of dillying and dallying with the mix. But done nonetheless--and just in time for summer--my latest mix, "Hot in the Shade."

I started this mix late last year, in part in response to the coming of winter but also as an homage to the people and culture of Puerto Rico, post-Hurricane Maria. I didn't stick with that theme; I couldn't do it justice. Nonetheless, I will return to it before long. I need more music from Puerto Rico along with sound effects so that the mix becomes a sound montage of and tribute to America's forgotten colony.

Es triste.

Sigue bailando, mi gente

I made this. Let's consider it a work in progress.

Somewhere in Puerto Rico in the aftermath of a hurricane, a certain someone has decided to play games with the people. Instead of giving them much needed supplies and food, he's tossed them paper towels--the quicker picker-upper under normal circumstances but not very effective in cleaning up destruction, flooding, power outages, and hunger.

I guess we should be grateful that his handlers made him leave his t-shirt cannon on Air Force One.

No matter. We can only pray that this soon results in a mutiny against the Bounty by the time all is said and done.
