MEHDIMAN - NUH WANT NO WAR

'OLD WARDROBE’ mixtapes 

September 2006 was beautiful - the temperature was still high enough to open a window and autumn was still shimmering with all the colours of the rainbow when the idea popped into JSM's Rootskontrolla head to start recording periodically short 'mixtapes' with 10-20 of his favourite tunes at the time. 

We were getting ready to fire up the first version of our soundsystem, so in a room on the first floor of a block of flats on the southern outskirts of Warsaw, the conditions were perfect (hehe) to fire up the recording in the evening after work and rummage through the collection.

First listenings, testing Jah Tubbys new at the time 3way preamp, which arrived in hand luggage straight from north London, and selection that slowly crystallised the Roots Revival Soundsystem selection. After a couple of recordings and sharing them on local online discussion site, the topic developed to the point where other selectors and vinyl collectors started to post if they could record a short set. Over time, mixes from various friendly selectors arrived - and so the series called ‘Old Wardrobe.'

And so we present to you another series of mixes from the past, which will regularly appear on our channels! As well as Roots Revival flying into space soon, we also occasionally travel back in time and do a little digging here and there. More music!

6 - La symphonie des Empires part 2 - Digital Lover

A hypnotic roots reggae journey – deep, spacious, and spiritual.
A slow-burning dub track filled with echoing textures, swirling effects, and shifting instrumentals that move freely between saxophone solos, organ bubbles, skanking guitar and deep sub-bass.

This version stretches out over time to let the dub breathe. No rush. No stress. Just flow.
Perfect as background for studying, working, reflecting – or just getting lost in the mix.

🎧 Best used for: chill sessions, focused work, late-night listening, conscious vibes, ambient reggae flow.

Art-X, quatre lettres pour un homme et un instrument. Et pas n'importe lequel puisqu'il s'agit du mélodica. Jamais sans son jouet fétiche, Art-X revisite, remixe et compose des morceaux à l'instar de celui qu'on pourrait présenter comme son père spirituel : Augustus Pablo. A la différence près qu'Art-X ne se limite pas aux fondations du reggae jamaïcain. Indéniablement influencé par la scène Bass Music, le mélodiciste originaire de Tours navigue entre les remixes oldschool et les compositions innovantes... le tout pour un Dub énergique et méditatif.

10 ans après avoir fondé, avec son frère Olo, le groupe Ondudground  et le weblabel ODGProd, Art-X lance en 2014 son projet solo. Sa constante créativité l'amènera à sortir plusieurs EP et albums remarqués, comme « Toy Story », « Spiritual Father » ou dernièrement « Blue Lotus ». Musicien depuis l'enfance, Art-X écume les scènes françaises, européennes mais aussi mondiales. Le Mexique a par exemple pu apprécier son talent naturel pour les mélodies. Parfois accompagné d'un groupe, souvent épaulé d'un dub opérateur, sur scène Art-X propose un live à la fois planant et stimulant. En somme, une prestation singulière et difficilement imitable.
