229 Summer Dance Set 2
Reviving an idea from a few years ago, a set of dance tracks for simple entertainment. Spiced up with a theme, which this time was Funk, and we had a set of six funk tracks to represent that. Otherwise, a varied combination of music, but all very much danceable stuff. Peak listeners 22, maintained 18 or more for nearly the whole show, and a lot of dancing in the City 🙂
