Last time I was back home in Florence I ended up in a clothes shop near my house and the dude behind the counter suggested I check this crew and their mixes and he was right, top notch stuff, hear for yourselves:
From their blog post:
Recorded in a very early morning in August 2K7 after a "Notte Brava" on the loose in some of the baddest BAR in Florence. This is another classic mix by the hand of my man Biga. Who knows Biga already has this mix, so...everybody in Florence have "El Climatico"...!!! from Salsa to Soul, passing by Hip-Hop underground hit and classic Funk with a couple of Augustus Pablo's regular...you can find every bad kind of music on it.
So...as Biga says: "This is "El Climatico" recorded and mixed by Biga in August 2007. The wonderful art cover is by Mateo Rivano. Many thanks to Bubu, Igor and Joao for the contribution in making it."
