Audio (Reggae): Thread for all things reggae

[EDS]

Where is it then?

To be honest I thought better of it, most of the mixes I have got and can link to or upload(not sure how but there must be a way) are not exactly liberal in their views on sexuality. Even the stone love mixes I have got which are tame in comparison are bound to offend someone

 

[daveinprague]

Well considered... If I hear things too blatent they dont get posted.... but if its something half way through a sound clash, I would prob still post it, as the people who would be likely to be downloading it, would understand that Brighton isnt Jamaica.

No, it's in Hove actually! http://www.jamaicainnhove.co.uk

I will go through a few and post a couple, that are not outright offensive. Do you know how I can upload mixes I have at home or hist them somewhere so others can download them.

Dave, what got you into this genre of Music? I am assuming of course you are not Jamaican

I happened upon this today whilst listening to Radio 4:

Nothing spectacular, but quite a good listen and I'll be trying to remember part 2 next week.

For me I was listening to Kiss 100 one day when I was about thirteen and David Rodigan had a daytime show on there, he used to play all the mainstream stuff(because he had to) but one day he played three Reggae songs and from then I was hooked.
I used to be a drum and bass MC and done okay at that but Reggae was what I preferred, going out to the dances in London though sometimes got a bit sticky for a white man but luckily I used to go with about twenty Jamaicans so managed to avoid the majority of trouble. Dont get me wrong the majority were fine but there are always a couple of wannabe gangsters. One of my friends is a good friend of a DJ and we used to go to a lot of dances where he was.

I will link to some of my favourite mixes/you tube videos later, chances are thought they have already been linked to/uploaded

Cool... I counted 3 white faces in a 12 tribes dance one time, and they were girls...but 12 tribe dance is diffenrent vibes..and never really felt uncomfortable....have done at Saxon dance...knowning 12 tribes sound people was very comforting...haha...yeah, sling em up...

Glad he is doing music still. Tell him to pop up The Albert if he fancies a gig, sure we could fit him in somewhere.

Dave I have not forgot about the mixes, I have been listening to them believe it or not lol, I may know all the songs but never take much notice of the other stuff as I am so used to it.

This is one of my favourite clashes, Rodigan vs Killamanjaro, I do have this but found it already uploaded. Controversial but love it never the less, Rodigan takes it for me. When he drops Murderer is the end for me.
Probably already posted but full clash here, some marvellous dub IMO
