Goodies from my vinyl collection. Further exploring the connection between Flatbush and Waterhouse, New York and Kingston in the 90s, this mix shines light on breakbeat records that looped dadaistic phrases of Kingstonian DJs like Cutty, Shabba, Buju and others on all those classic Boom Bap Instrumentals.

This is another impromptu Sunday afternoon session at my house, pre super bowl style! Recorded live in one take with one turntable. All tunes are original pressings except possibly the last tune, which has a bit of a sketchy history but still sounds brilliant, and is ever appropriate for the times we are living! With a new year upon us, it gives us a chance to reflect on the year that has just passed. It was a tuff year for me and many of my friends! This selection reflects the trials and tribulations that I and many of us have been through this year. You can check the playlist but this one full of ultra heavy, dark roots music from beginning to end. Giving thanks for the strength that this music provides us!!! Again no planning, just throw down the first tune and vibe from there.  This one is about an hour and a half or so of pure vibes!! Check it out, as they say all killers, no fillers!! Respect out to the whole community!!

Kojak - False Rulers Of The World (Seven Inch Selection) 2-2-2020

6FtSTIX aka STIX of Rise & Shine Rockers and Majestic Roots Sound System was formally introduced to sound system culture back in 2011. Experiencing Aba-Shanti-I at the junction of Southern & East Row, W10, London ignited the fire. From there the education, research and record collecting began. 

After moving back to his hometown of Tauranga, Bay of Plenty he and Amelio-B formed Rise & Shine Rockers in 2016. The crew played sessions every now and then until the summer of 2019 - 2020, when the pace was picked up with a busy summer and gigs across the Bay of Plenty. Over this summer period he was also welcomed into the Majestic Roots crew with Mikey Majestic.

Stix says, ‘For this mix I’ve taken a selection of my favourite tunes that I’ve played out over the summer. It’s a very approachable selection with out trying to go deep and obscure. These songs always brought the vibes particularly at the Voodoo Lounge 'At The Dub Market' sessions in Mt Maunganui. Big up NiceUp Aotearoa for the opportunity to present a mix.’

Dubmatix is continually evolving his style, taking new influences on board on each new recording; by now it simply doesn’t do justice to the incredible breadth of his work to slap a ‘dub’ sticker on it. 

"...collaborations see him effortlessly incorporating all conceivable facets of reggae and dub with a striking self-assurance and combining them with an exceptional willingness to experiment and take new directions."

This kaleidoscope of variety is particularly in force of his upcoming brand new album. As well as working as a musician and producer, Jesse King is also a sought-after remixer and app designer, with recent remixes including tracks for the Easy Star All-Stars, John Brown's Body, Zion Train, Martha & The Muffins, Don Letts and Mungo’s HiFi. 

For his new album he spent 2 years in the past and a lot of time in tweaking the knobs on high class Roots Tunes inna crossover style…!
