obscure dubz tape - part VI... for all addicts

It's quite specialist.......It's all authentic Reggae from the very centre of the culture........I put tunes on these podmixs that I don't really expect people to feel the first time they hear them...........I'm making the podmixs for people who like to listen multiple times and then begin to like different tunes to the ones they liked on the first listen.

Aba Shanti-I Live at Reggae Roast Room 2 at Cable - 04/02/11

Aba Shanti-I Live good session good quality

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.’

roll on - the jazzy side of reggae part II - mixtape

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.
