Community Rockers Soundsystem - Tine.Dub heavyweight warm up

Augustus Pablo was unique. His music sounds like no one else. He invented a new sound, the 'Far East" sound. This is the sound that is most influential in todays Reggae music, particularly in Europe........... His production style is deep, crisp and clear. On top of all this, his melodica solos ache with emotion. I've put some of what collectors believe to be his best work on here, in order that you can get a feeling for his art.....Because his music IS Art

I still often get asked why I don’t put up more mixes that reflect my more usual dj style. I’m not sure really but maybe it is because I get to hear myself play like that all the time and it’s more interesting to me to put up other stuff? I also like that people who have just come across me and check out my Soundcloud for the first time might think they have stumbled on a reggae dj with the same name by mistake. To help stoke that confusion, here’s a third Bucky Skank mix. Bucky Skank is an annual night I do in Glasgow where I play all Jamaican music and Jamaican inspired music. This year was the 6th edition. I think I get slightly better at doing it each year and reckon by 2031 I might have nailed it. 

This Bucky Skank mix is made up of two sections recorded live on the night of this year’s party combined with a section recorded at home. Hopefully my cunning editing will make it hard to tell where the joins are. It is available to download as a 320 mp3. The music here ranges from 1971 right up to 2017.

I think this mix contains completely different tracks from the other Bucky Skank mixes, or at the very least with minimal crossover and is perhaps my favourite so far. It is LONG! 2 hours 30 minutes and perhaps delves a bit deeper in parts than the previous mixes, though I hope it is still fun to listen to. A lot of fun was had on the night and ultimately that is what the Bucky Skank nights are all about. Roll on next year’s.

Late 70's/early 80's Roots Selection from UK to Jamaica

Earl Gateshead began DJing in 1979 when he played Reggae records between punk bands in Brixton......... Today Earl tours the world, always playing original, first press, vinyl, which he maintains has the best sound. He spreads the original positive message of love, from Jamaica’s golden era of Reggae music. Earl has a unique voice on the microphone, his 'Yeah Yeah" Catchphrase has spread right through Reggae music.

Earl's career began in the late 70s, when he built his own Sound System, one of the first built by a European, and installed it at the world famous Dive Bar, in Soho, London, where he established a respected reputation throughout the U.K. Earl had a 23 year residency at The Dive Bar, sadly brought to an end in 2002 when the venue was closed, after the lease ran out. Throughout the later part of his Dive Bar years Earl became the Saturday night resident at clubs such as the internationally acclaimed Blue Note and later Fabric, where he became their resident Roots Reggae specialist.

In 2000 Earl began to organise and perform at a series of events called “Reggae Nights” at seminal London club "Plastic People." This legendary series of concerts received world wide attention, with performances from international legends such as; Alton Ellis, Dennis Alcapone, Sugar Minott, Cutty Ranks, Adrian Sherwood and Saxon Sound System. This run of great success gave Earl a huge boost in profile, leading him to be one of the most sought after DJs in the world. In high demand from international Reggae artists. He went on to tour Europe and Australasia with Big Youth, Dr Alimantado and Cutty Ranks amongst others.

Earl was the first Reggae DJ to play at Fabric, The Ministry Of Sound and Space in Ibiza. Probably the world's three greatest nightclubs.

World renowned graffiti artist Banksy asked Earl to D.J at the first three exhibitions of his work. Earl is still the only D.J that Banksy has ever worked with.

With such a distinguished career and fantastic attitude, Earl has become a figurehead in UK Reggae. He was invited to lecture at the prestigious Red Bull Music Academy in Sao Paulo. Earl gave a comprehensive lecture on Reggae DJing and recorded a radio show for Red Bull....... In April this year Red Bull invited Earl to play with Red Bull Culture Clash winners Rebel Sound on the London leg of their U.K tour.
