My good mate Mogpaws of Simmer Down fame moved back to Toronto recently from a little stint in Brazil. He ended up moving literally around the corner from me, so we decided to get together one rainy Sunday afternoon and have a meeting of the minds. He arrived with some delicious vinyl and we went 3 songs back and forth until we reached the 120-minute mark. I’m very happy to have for the fist time on this site a mix created by two people going on musical journey through the realms of soul, funk, jazz, Brazilian and Latin music.

Enjoy the funk.
