Today, June 20th, 2012, is officially the first day of summer (in one half of the world, that is)!  And our buddy Jeremy, aka PARENTZ, was feeling the love so much, that he decided to write PORTALS a little summer love letter, accompanied with an old school summertime mix.

Tracklisting:

1. Intro
2. Public Enemy —”Fight the Power”
3. P.M. Dawn — “Set Adrift on Memory Bliss of You”
4. Fresh Prince and DJ Jazzy Jeff — “Summertime”
5. Another Bad Creation — “Iesha”
6. Bobby Brown — “Every Little Step”
7. Hi-Five — “I Like The Way (The Kissing Game)”

10. Digital Underground — “Same Song”
11. Naughty by Nature — “Feel Me Flow”
12. New Edition — “If It Isn’t Love”

If you can listen to this and not feel groovy, funky, and totally bad ass for the summer, then something might be wrong with you. The sounds are perfect for your poolside lounging, your sunny barbecues, and all your warm late night dance parties. So press play below, and take a dive into Jeremy’s letter to us.
