Take Sting... but change the lyrics to "I'm an Englisman in Bogota" and you have Jimmy Jinx. Luckily for us he's not just Bogota's finest old school DJ, he's a regular visitor to Barcelona and CoolTalk... this eclectic mix of hip hop (the occasional bit of comedy) and chilled grooves is just the sot of music we like for a bit of conversation y funk on a Saturday night.

CoolTalk is a social initiative aimed at encouraging students of English and Spanish to spend more time using the language rather than studying it. We provide a relaxing, stimulating environment for this to happen.

In this first episode Rokeby takes a train ride into Barcelona for one of the first coolTalk sessions. Featuring some excellent downtempo and chilled house from DJ TBird, Rokeby combines a bit of conversation, comedy and music.
