Thanks to Dr Strangedub for including the dub to the above (Mad Professor – Fast Forward into Dub) on this week’s Echo Chamber on KFAI which made me post the original here. A lovely tune!
Also found the above on youtube the other day, a great bit of live mixing by the King (Jammy) himself. Two to perk up those dark winter nights!
A nice bit of off-the-wall electronica for a Thursday night heard on Rob Da Bank’s show over the last couple of weeks.
And another piece of tunage, heard this time on the Rt Hon David Rodigan’s show. A piece of minimal electro reggae straight out of the land of wood and water (and organ stabs straight out of toytown!)
And by the power of youtube the instrumental the drum roll of which, reminds me of Bango (to the Batmobile) from the man like Todd Terry…”Let’s go!”
Heard this on David Rodigan’s 1 Xtra show last week, a lovely piece of laid back roots tunage. It’s great to hear the great Big Youth back again in 2013 and he’s still on top form!
I’m praying that the sun comes out tomorrow as that garden needs a good old tidy!
A slice of bass heaviness played on the David Rodigan 1Xtra show this week, a dub of a tune by Damian Marley featuring Sean Paul produced by Hard Work. A sort of reworking of a classic King Tubby’s tune done over in a 2013 style. Hard as a loaf of White Sunblest three weeks old. Rough!
Another great tune from Alborosie heard on this week’s David Rodigan show on BBC 1Xtra. Music to listen to while carrying 50 litres of Multi-purpose compost (with added John Innes), an assortment of terracotta pots and .5 kg of Radar onion sets back home from Shannon’s. I’ll now have to spend all afternoon relaxing in a Radox bath just like the adverts in the 80’s!
A lovely tune heard on last week’s On The Wire on BBC Radio Lancashire, Big up Steve Barker (and Fenny and Jim!)
A week ago we were in the grand setting of Dinas Cross, Pembrokeshire, Wales. Now this Friday evening, we’re back in good old SE23. To celebrate, here’s a great tune heard on Ross Allen’s show the other week.
Continuing the theme from yesterday…

Heard on the excellent David Rodigan 1Xtra show this week. Dennis and Gregory from beyond the grave with the living midlander Macka B (remixed by Curtis Lynch). One to whack on when you find out someone’s Tomatoes are doing better than yours!
