I met Abu Sou <\/strong>(aka Breixo Barros<\/em>) in a record store in Barcelona last Spring. We were digging through soul 45’s next to eachother and started a conversation. It was clearly meant to be, because within 5 mins I learned that he not only knew who I was, but had my music and was just as crazy about funky global disco sounds as I am. I ended up staying with him in BCN<\/strong> for several days, getting shown around properly, and was introduced to a bunch of his friends who are also all record junkies and music fiends. A sweetheart, a rebel, and a sound explorer, Abu Sou<\/a> can be heard on his ScannerFM podcast<\/a> or deejaying parties regularly in BCN<\/strong>. I’m happy to present this live mix he put together exclusively for Mixtape Riot<\/strong>– 67mins of funky disco, soulful house, and global goodies. He calls it “Hard Times”<\/strong> \u00a0because “Disco and House always grow on very bad social situations, like now in Spain<\/a>.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
