It’s the end of January. The level of bitching about our northern climate has increased exponentially. yeah, yeah…it sucks, it’s cold, you can’t feel your toes, all the plants are dead, we can’t hang out in the park, blah blah blah. All of us know this, so my recommendation is to zip up our traps, lock those feelings deep inside and refrain from stating the obvious. It’s Canada in the winter and the climate is no secret. It will happen next year, it happened last year and will likely continue until well after we and at least several future generations have perished.
We can inject some warmth into our systems with music anyway. Today’s selections romp through dancehall, reggae & ska in addition to a tantalizing gauntlet of funky latin numbers that should get you toastier than Godzilla’s armpit.
Do apply commentary as it fuels motivation. If there are particular styles and vibes you’d like more of, let it be known and I’ll likely oblige.
