As you head to the polls today, we want to offer a little respite from all the political coverage. And what better way to chill out than with a little Chi music? The latest “Sense of Place” series from NPR’s “World Cafe” is all about Chicago. Over the 13-part series, hosts Raina Douris and Stephen Kallao talk about the city’s historic role in genres like gospel and industrial, and interview emerging local artists. They talk with producer Simone Alicea about how community and a DIY attitude make Chicago different from other big music cities.
