It used to be, come the first week of the month, you could count on a new Certified Bananas MP3 mixtape showing up on-line, clocking hits of the day (reggaeton, rap, dancehall) alongside the Providence DJ duo’s inimitable blends and remixes.
- Live and kicking
Yes, we suffer from an embarrassment of riches when it come to live music here in the Boston area.
