The summer is here in mainland Europe and we Berliners are facing a solid heatwave with over 38 degrees in the shade. To get through the heat with some laidback selection we invited DJ Zhao for this edition of the Riddims Tropicale radioshow. He came by for a cold beer, a aged rum on the rocks and a handfull of amazing tunes from Africa and the Caribbean – Kizomba, Zouk, Dancehall, Reggaeton, UKFunky..
For those who missed the radioshow we have the podcast available now for download.
