As often is the case, the universe conspires to send the right song to you at just the right time. We at PE are taking a well deserved vacation for a few weeks, and we are indeed out of the country, so what a gift “Sandoval” by LDRDO. Don’t worry, just because this barn burner of an instrumental jam is perfect for our bag packing, it’ll also light up your dance party, make your windows down cruising more free or just generally perk up your day. A mix of north African rhythms and Latin grooves, it feels a bit like Calexico broadening their horizons and opening up the throttle a bit. While it might be a bit premature to say this is the song of the summer, it’s definitely a solid contender.
