I just somehow got away from posting, but I have had a lot of requests recently and figured I better get back around here and post the playlists. Plus I promised Lynn that I would so here you go: The mixes are not specific to the evening, Renan and Juslyn are in charge of picking the mix for the night, and they like some more than others...the Tuesday (a Medd inspired blend of several great alb...

Saturday Soul (a mix not just for Saturdays)
-
Artist:Orgone,
-
Album:The Killion Floor
-
Track:Etta James
This playlist is based on some of my new favorites and some old favorites, I like the way the older Etta James goes with Trainwreck DeLuxe Amy Winehouse, And fantastic retro soul kats Orgone, -of California- whose The Killion Floor appears all through the early evening music. There's also some new funk and soul sound from Spain, The Pinker Tones which I highly reccommend. The beginning of this ...

All safe at the Casa
Well its Friday Night and We are back open, we actually opened last night, but with only half the staff, many not home from "home" on the mainland. The storm, while scary as hell, was sparing with us here on Ambergris Caye. The wind was soooo loud where we stayed, a luxury suite at Victoria House--that each time it blew hard, I imagined my roof peeling off. But in the morning, I worked up the c...

Track:The Sound of the Memory
A brief Moment to remember a man who did as much for rap as an art form as any in the pantheon of rap gods. To truly appreciate lyricism and rhythm one must reach for the words that build that foundation of a great spoken riffing line.His work is built around the texture and sound of jazz, Afro-Carribean beat, funk, and the blues often referecing John Coltrane and Miles Davis. An inspiring figu...

back on the beat
I know I have been negligent about posting what we’re playing recently, I hope this will be helpful. More diligence will follow, just been making more mojitos and martinis than CD mixes of late.The evenings around here have been dominated by just a few great CD’s recently, so if you are here to see what it was you heard while you where here, and it was after, say 8:30- just check in on these

Pacha Massive

Artist:
-
Album:
I'm getting a lot of, " Hey, what's this playing right now," and it's most often while we're in the middle of the Pacha Massive. This is a band based in the Bronx, distinctly Latin, kinda downtempo (I like to think Thievery Corporation meets Ozomatli) An immediately cool and worldly sound incorporating elements of Cuban son, reggae, dancehall, dub, hip-hop, house, Colombian cumbia, and classic dan
