Part 1 > Italo disco and leftfield weirdness from the early/mid 80’s, when Chicago hotmix radio DJs threw in amped-up electronic eurodance with latin freestyle and crude house beats — to rock the city from Rogers Park to Stoney Island. Mixed w/ more recent cuts from NYC’s Abe Duque and Toronto’s Dubious, closes with WBMX destroyer from Pineapples.

Part 2 > trying to treat the summer heat with a musical iced beverage, we get drenched in atmospheric downtempo and dub-house before we reach cool-down sounds from russ gabriel, new flowing techno from chicago’s zachary lubin, mike huckaby remixing on a deeper plane, and convextion setting off the fireworks.
