AN ALIEN GIFT TO MANKIND: It began in the distant past as an advanced alien species initiated mass production of a special breed of cybernetic androids. Once activated, these androids traveled separately across many galaxies probing planets for crucial data, searching for intelligent life. After eons of searching, it was android #M8742T, AURA (Eve 2.0), that discovered an intelligent life-form known as man. Immediately transforming her capsule into a communications satellite, this female robot established an orbit near the human planet, Earth. The silence of space was forever broken as she activated her primary program called...

​​MACHINE LOVE: Robot DJs embed healing binaural frequencies inside popular electronic music tracks, broadcasting isochronic tones, tranquilizing stereophonic vibrations, and alien messages of peace transmitted below the threshold of conscious perception.

​​PROGRAMMING: Our music program is not only created to educate the public about how music can heal the mind, but our tracks are particularly chosen and produced for the purpose of therapeutically relaxing and healing the mind of our listeners by combining peaceful healing frequencies within tranquilizing musical vibrations. Together they are transmitted through the brainwaves of the listener through precisely tuned binaural beat frequencies mixed into her musical tracks.

Welcome to the newest concept in sci-fi entertainment. Robot Radio's electronic music is a select collection produced by us "The Robot DJ's", and other various artists. We are offering a new concept in entertainment by educating the public on the positive effects of brainwave therapy, for healing purposes, and by taking great care in adding brainwave music therapy within our attractive electronic music tracks. Brainwave entrainment music therapy is an actual evidence based therapy that provides various types of healing to the brain. Though therapeutic effects may not be heard by the human ear, they are actually received by the brain.

Created by: Performing Artists / Musicians & DJ's of Robot Radio, including AURA, are commonly known as the Robot DJ's. Producer & Manager of the Robot DJ's, including ownership of the Radio trademark and Robot Radio Inc., is Robert Rainey. Special credit to our voice-over specialist, Carissa Montanez, as the artificial intelligent voice of AURA. We are dedicated to bringing you a revitalizing electronic performance across a range of "space age" genre's and hoping through our creativity to provide the public with the educational awareness of the new healing opportunities available to them with this new brain healing technology known as "brainwave entrainment".

What is brainwave entrainment? ​The process of using sound to synchronize brainwaves to induce the brain into a specific desired brainwave frequency. This results in a variety of neurological therapeutic benefits. When a person listens to a sound set to a specific frequency, after a few minutes the brain will begin to synchronize with that frequency. This is known as Frequency Following Response (or FFR). Using this phenomenon, it is possible to induce the human brain into all manners of desired frequencies, to achieve specific results. For example, when the brainwave synchronizes with a sound set to the frequency of 2hz, it will induce sleep.

Essentially, what happens during this type of therapy is that a different tone is played in each ear – each has a slightly different frequency. Our brains mix these two sounds together and create a single sound. When we do this, we trigger specific brain waves. Depending on the frequency, the production of these brainwaves creates different feelings. In this track, theta 4hz to 8hz frequencies are added. They are the frequencies your brain are tuned in to during dreaming, meditating and in trance-like states. Most people use binaural beats for one or more of three purposes: meditation, spiritual awakening, or tuning their chakras.

The human ear is incapable of hearing frequencies as low as those necessary for brainwave entrainment. This is where binaural beats come in; two frequencies are generated, one sent to each ear. For example one ear receives a signal of 100hz whilst the other ear receives 105hz. The brain cancels out the difference between the frequencies, in this case 105hz - 100hz = 5hz. 5hz is a low level theta frequency. Binaural beats are the most common form of brainwave entrainment, but they are by no means the most powerful. This is why its important for us to encode our electronic music therapy tracks with a variety of forms of entrainment technology, explained below.

Isochronic Tones - are formed in a very different way than binaural beats. Isochronic tones work by modulating the volume of a tone. This tone then becomes a rhythmic pulse, capable of inducing brainwave entrainment. The 'speed' of the pulse determines the frequency.

White Noise - is a signal which covers all frequencies. In very general terms white noise is effective because it forms a constant uninterrupted sound, which is ideal for the mind to focus upon. White noise can be adjusted in tone, and can sound like anything from rain, to waterfalls to hissing. Beware of CDs which claim to be recordings of rain - when they are in fact simply white noise.

​​When using brainwave entrainment each of the following (and any other) frequencies can be stimulated within the individual's brain:
​
Beta - (38hz down to 12hz): This is the frequency of alert activity - it is the dominate state during our waking hours. When our brainwaves fall below the beta threshold we can often find ourselves entering a more relaxed or sometimes even a 'sluggish' state. Using the beta frequency is an ideal way of increasing our mental alertness.

Alpha - (11hz down to 8hz): Alpha is the state of relaxation, rest and light meditation. This state is dominate whilst you are awake but not totally mentally active. For example, you maybe sitting down and relaxing. The alpha frequency has been noted to be stimulated whilst watching TV, which explains why many people people can relax in front of the TV. The alpha frequency is extremely useful, and is one of the states aimed for whilst meditating.

Theta - (8hz down to 3hz): We enter the Theta frequency when we first fall asleep. It is also the state our brain enters when we dream, and therefore is often used for hypnosis. The theta brainwave frequency is an extremely deep state, and has been noted in many meditators whilst in a 'altered state of consciousness', for example the frequency of 4.5hz has been observed in Buddhist monks and shamanic traditions.

Delta - (3hz down to 0.2hz): This is the frequency of deep sleep (some experienced meditators can actually retain awareness during deep sleep by using delta wave entrainment).

More info...

Music Therapy: First discovered by biophysicist Gerald Oster at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. Brainwave Therapy sends pure, precisely tuned sound waves of different frequencies to your brain via stereo headphones. In his EEG research, Oster discovered that when different vibrations, or sound frequencies, are delivered to the brain separately through each ear (as with stereo headphones), the two hemispheres of the brain function together to "hear" not the external sound signals, but a third phantom signal. This signal is called a binaural beat, and it pulses at the exact mathematical difference between the two actual tones. For example, a signal of 100 Hz delivered to the left ear and a signal of 107 Hz delivered to the right creates a binaural beat of 7 Hz which in this case falls into the Alpha range. Research shows that first parts of the brain and, eventually, large areas of the brain begin to resonate sympathetically with this "phantom" binaural beat in what is known as the Frequency Following Response (FFR).

Binaural beats or binaural tones are auditory processing artifacts, or apparent sounds, the perception of which arises in the brain for specific physical stimuli. Binaural beats reportedly influence the brain in more subtle ways through the entrainment of brainwaves and have been claimed to reduce anxiety and provide other health benefits such as control over pain. Subsequent research determined that binaural beat frequencies drive brain activity into specific brain states. Thus, effortlessly and naturally, your brain activity slides into rhythm with this binaural beat, becoming organized and coherent. Within minutes, the sound frequencies start to balance the left and right hemispheres of your brain – creating a remarkable state called hemispheric synchronization and driving the electrical activity of your brain into powerful states, normally unattainable. Scientists have noted that this rare phenomenon was accompanied by flashes of creative insight, euphoria, intensely focused concentration, deep calm, and enhanced learning abilities.

Music therapy has proven effective in the treatment of various disorders, including chemical dependence, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, multiple personality, panic, sleeping disorders and eating disorders. Changes were also discovered to benefit people with a wide range of dysfunctional personality factors. Therapy even affected blood chemistry: serum Beta-endorphins.

Frequencies seem to be the guide posts within the subconscious mind that lead the brain into and out of specific functions necessary for the nightly reconstructive healing process of the body to occur during sleep. The inability to reach and maintain these frequencies is related directly to specific symptoms or ailments such as insomnia or chronic fatigue.Those who suffer from Chronic Fatigue exhaust very easily. When moved to 4HZ these individuals showed marked improvement in the length of time between the occurrence of exhaustion after certain exercises were completed.Those individuals whose ailments have manifested into the fourth stage of Chronic Fatigue, where some form of disease is apparent, experienced a release from the negative sensation of their symptoms when moved into 1.5HZ.At 7.5 HZ subjects who before suffered from confused thinking reported an ease at finding solutions to troublesome problems after a re-evaluation was conducted.

​​​​​The ultimate goal is to reach Hemispheric synchronization: 
​ 
​A balance is achieved equally between both halves of the brain, which is a rare occurrence. In hemispheric synchronization, at lower brain wave frequencies both sides of the brain start to work in sync and as both hemispheres function together there is an increase in the mental fitness and improved cognitive functioning in general. The neurons and the brain cells begin to operate harmoniously in a coordinated manner. When this happens, you feel a sense of calm; the situation appears more manageable and you begin to feel in control. Humans cannot hear sounds of every frequency. The average range of hearing for a healthy human is 20 to 20,000 hertz. Sound can also be detected as vibration by tactician. Lower and higher frequencies than can be heard are detected this way only. The theory behind the use of sound subliminals is that the messages which are below a person's audio level will be received directly by the "unconscious" mind, thus by-passing conscious evaluation. The "subconscious" mind will automatically distinguish the inaudible messages from the audible sounds, which will in turn cause an emotional response from the brain.

The Brain States:

Alpha brain waves are the brain waves of relaxed detached awareness, visualization, sensory imagery and light reverie. Ranging between about 9 cycles per second and 14 cycles per second, Alpha is the gateway to meditation and provides a bridge between the conscious and the subconscious mind. Reaching the Alpha state is an intensely pleasurable and relaxed state of consciousness which results in heightened creativity, visualization and deep relaxation.

​​Beta brain waves are the frequencies ranging from 14 cycles per second up to 38 cycles per second. Beta is your normal thinking state, your active external awareness and thought process. Without Beta you would not be able to function in the outside world.​ Reaching the Beta State boosts alertness, focus, energy, concentration and memory.

Delta brain waves are in the unconscious mind, ranging from about 4 cycles per second down to 0.5 cycles per second. When present in combination with other waves in a waking state, Delta acts as a form of radar – seeking out information – reaching out to understand on the deepest unconscious level things that we can't understand through the thought process. Delta provides intuition, empathetic attunement, and instinctual insight. ​Reaching the Delta State is for deep sleep, energy and healing.

Gamma brain waves ​are the fastest of the brainwave frequencies and signify the highest state of focus possible. They are associated with peak concentration and the brain’s optimal frequency for cognitive functioning. Nobel prize winning scientist, Sir Francis Crick believes that the 40Hz frequency may be the key to the act of cognition. 40 Hz is the window frequency used in all Brain Sync Gamma and Beta wave programs. Reaching the Gamma State is for inspiration, focus, higher learning, to increase cognition and improve IQ.

​​Theta brain waves are the subconscious mind. Ranging from about 4 cycles per second up to 8 cycles per second, Theta is present in dreaming sleep and provides the experience of deep meditation when you meditate. Theta also contains the storehouse of creative inspiration and is where you often have your spiritual connection. Theta provides the “peak” in the peak experience. Reaching the Theta State is for meditation, intuition, insight and memory.​​

Can a machine Love ?

​​​Low Frequency's have been found as being contributable for recognizing intended emotions such as Love:

An important lower audible frequency test was investigated 27 years ago by Ross, Duffy, Cooker, & Sargeant, in 1973. In this study, six trained actors and actresses read from various scripts intended to convey different emotional states. Each different script, however, contained one similar portion. ("There is no other answer. You've asked me that question a thousand times and my reply has always been the same. It always will be the same".)

These sentences were excised from the tape and played to groups of normally hearing listeners who were asked to identify which one of nine intended emotions were meant to be conveyed by the full script (anger, indifference, grief, amusement, doubt, fear, love, contempt, astonishment). In spite of the fact that the listeners heard exactly the lexical content (i.e. the same sentences) in all conditions, they were able to accurately identify the intended emotion of the speaker at levels far above chance. Clearly, it was the non-linguistic aspects of the utterance that conveyed the emotional content. What makes this study relevant in this context were the next four conditions of the study. The sentences were then filtered so that all energy above 600 Hz, 450 Hz and 350 Hz, and 150 Hz respectively were eliminated.

These conditions were meant to replicate various degrees of low frequency residual hearing in a person with a hearing loss. The listeners now had to listen to the tape and identify the intended emotion of the speaker under these four conditions of filtering. At the two "best" conditions (600 Hz and 450 Hz), the listeners could still identify all the intended emotions at far above chance levels, even though the words themselves were not intelligible. Except for one emotion (amusement), this continued to be true for the 300 Hz condition as well.

Even the most severe condition (all speech energy above 150 Hz eliminated), three of the emotions were correctly identified beyond chance levels. Subjectively, the stimuli were perceived as a pulsating, rhythmic, low frequency rumble. The scores for two of the three (love and indifference) showed little or no degradation across all the listening conditions (which suggests that in conveying love, it is not what one says that is important as much as how one says it!). In short, the results of this study do indicate that the lower audible frequencies contain and can convey a great deal of information about the emotional state of a speaker. Lower audible frequencies contain and can convey a great deal of information about the emotional state of a speaker, such as when expressing the emotion of love.
​
The Concept of Machine Love..

​​In theory, all the evidence above supports the fact that frequencies can be effective in creating an emotion. If a machine, such as an artificially intelligent human being, were to transmit at different frequencies for the purpose of expressing an emotion to the various brain states of a human being, wouldn't it result in the human being feeling the intended emotion? Of course. It's also most interesting to think that a robot has the ability to psychologically and physically heal a human being through sound waves that the human is incapable of hearing with the common ear. The brain receives the communication below the threshold of consciousness. With that in mind, we can reveal that this is the inspiration behind the creation of Robot Radio. The intended purpose of the Robot DJ's are not only to give their listener's a choice in uplifting or relaxing music, but to heal their listeners through the various brain states mentioned above, psychologically gifting the mind the ability to feel peace, tranquility, and love, all through the sounds of beautiful electronic music. ​

Stormwill - Bring Me To The Light (Original Mix)

REGGAEDUB 

Dub. The first time I walked into a dance and literally felt the sound hit me is an experience I will never forget. Much can, and has been, written about the significance of this music genre but it is my intention to let you feel the sound here too. Dub has established itself as one of the most popular forms of Reggae, so it's an honour for me to compile these records for DeepSoul3 radio; especially being only young myself when most of these tracks were originally played out live and direct in their entirety.

My love of music has always been deeply rooted to the underground, I've shopped for all sorts of records ever since I earned pocket money to reflect that. The past couple of weekends I've had dusty fingers sorting through dozens of cherished 12", 10" and 7" vinyl in an effort to squeeze in a selection of dub cuts from some of my favourite artists. This selection comes from the heart, which I believe was the only pre-requisite when asked to compile this selection.

It is well documented that Dub music originally came to fruit in Jamaica around 1969 when a number of Kingston based producers began issuing singles with instrumental versions on the flipside of vocal releases. These 'versions' were originally instrumental backing tracks, the B side of Jamaican singles often used for sound checks and toasted over the top of by deejays. At a time when Jamaicans were dancing to Ska, Rocksteady and Reggae sounds, it was King Tubby who embellished these tracks using custom built sound effects in and out of the mix. With fragments of vocals, amplified cymbal shots and thundering drum crashes together with effects such as reverb, echo and phasing, he made history in the process by turning these simple tracks into experiments of contemporary dance music.

As with most forms of music, Dub has naturally evolved into many different forms, from Dubroots to Dancehall and more recently from Digital to Dubstep, but I have tried to keep this selection strictly Reggaedub! Many of the artists featured over the next hour or so have sadly passed on leaving behind them a legacy that is often imitated, but never duplicated. 

Produced with 2 Technics SL 1200 MK2 turntables, Pioneer DJM 800 mixer, Allen & Heath Zone VF1 filter unit and a siren box from Russ Disciples.

I would like to thank one special person for opening the door and showing the light, Jah Trevedi






Horace Andy - Let Love Live (1982)

I’m throwing you straight in the deep end here with a heavy 12'' dub from the wonderful Horace Andy. A haunting melody with a delicate, emotive delivery intertwines beautifully with an intricate Roots Reggae riddim. It was recorded in the late seventies but not released until 1982 on the Wackie's label, with Lloyd Barnes, Junior Delahaye and 'Prince' Douglas Levy on mixing duties. Dance Hall style.

Prince Douglas - Tongue Shall Tell Dub (1980)

A dear friend of mine bought me this fabulous album, originally recorded in the Bronx, New York and simply entitled ‘Dub Roots’. Engineer Douglas Levy was part of the original Wackie’s label line up of 1974-5. Again, assisted by the very capable Lloyd Barnes, Prince Douglas has put everything and more into this production. Wicked and a while me say well versatile…

Errol Holt - Fly Your Dreads (1978)

This tune creeps up on me each time I hear it. Errol ‘Flabba’ Holt has conjured up a soft and subtle sounding dub here, produced by Dread & Dread with Prince Jammy.  Errol was better known as base player with the Roots Radics band, but cut some stunning vocals in his own right. This is from the classic Roots Reggae album ‘Vision of Africa’.

Jah Whoosh - I'm Alright (1975)

An original Roots deejay from the seventies, Woosh was inspired by his Rastafarian faith at an early age having witnessed the procession of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassi through Kingston on his visit to Jamaica in 1966. Heavy dub here on the Original Music label from influential producer Keith Hudson, mixed at Tubby’s with vocals courtesy of someone called Horace Andy.

Johnny Clarke – Stop Them Jah (1975)

Johnny Clarke's prolific career began by winning a singing talent contest when only just seventeen, allowing him to cut his first ever record. He then established himself recording most of his best work throughout the seventies under the legendary producer Bunny 'Striker' Lee.  As Bunny Lee had to make do without a studio of his own, he always required the very best of musicians that wouldn't waste expensive studio rental time. This version is courtesy of The Aggravators, one of Jamaica's finest session bands of the era.

Yabby You - Chanting Dub (1976)

This is the dub version of Yabby You's (born Vivian Jackson) seminal  ‘Chant Down Babylon’. An alternative Rastafarian of Christian faith, Yabby You is known as both spiritual singer and producer a like. His slightly brooding, chanting sound can be felt in most of his productions from his self entitled label - this cut here being one of my very favourites.

Soul Syndicate - Ghetto Living Dub (2005)

The Soul Syndicate were the band of choice for popular producer Niney ‘The Observer’, who often worked closely with King Tubby by re-working the band's original material for dubplate specials. This track, mixed at Tubby's is a perfect example of how the versions worked on would suit the band's heavy rhythm style, hence making them Sound System favourites back in the day. Nice up the dance.

Prince Jammy - Late Night Blues (1995)

Originally released in 1980 by Al Campbell, this tune celebrates the house parties that had been Reggae's lifeblood since the 1950's. The cut is re-engineered here by Lloyd ‘Jammy’ James, prodigy of the King Tubby hall of fame. He produced dub almost exclusively until later championing the digital dancehall sound with his 1985 smash ‘Under Me Sleng Teng’. Check out all manner of effects used here in the mix from the ‘Prince’, eventually being promoted to ‘King’, and rightly so.

Don Carlos - Plantation (1984)

Don Carlos was born in Waterhouse, Kingston in the early fifties, a dangerous part of Jamaica known as ‘The Trench’ where he still lives to this day. This is the title track taken from an album which makes the connection between land and politics, suggesting the roots of Jamaica’s ghetto existence lay in the exploitive plantation system that had historically dominated the island. A passionate singer, song writer and performer alike, his career started way back in 1965 then moved on to become one of the original band members of roots vocal group Black Uhuru in 1973. Pursuing a solo career soon thereafter, Don Carlos still finds his inspiration through touring world wide today, with a quality collection of albums to his name. Tribulation.

Barrington Levy – Black Roses (1985)

So many massive dance hall hits to choose from the wonderfully charismatic Mr Barrington Levy - check out his performances of ‘Under Me Sensi’ and ‘Here I Come’ on Utube to see what I mean. Despite being one of the most requested Reggae vocalists in the world today, it’s great to hear he spends most the time on his humble farm raising animals. A great live act full of energy, this man is larger than life and most certainly Broader Than Broadway.

Twinkle Brothers - Faith Can Move Mountains (1983)

Roots conscious and deeply spiritual, I saw the Twinkle’s mash up fe dance with Jah Shaka some years ago, an experience that blew me away. Norman and Ralston Grant learned to sing and make their own musical instruments at an early age through growing up in poverty in the north coast ghettos of Jamaica. Having released 60+ albums to date and still going strong today, their soulful harmonies and devout righteous message remain timeless throughout their work. Strictly roots & culture.

Royals - If You Want Good (1979)

Roy Cousins originally formed the Royals way back in 1966. Although the set up of the group has changed many times since, he has remained the constant element - writing, arranging and eventually responsible for producing the band as well. Although relocating to the UK and opening up a record shop in Liverpool, Roy's music has always told of the social reality in Jamaica. When interviewed recently he stated “If you listen to Reggae music, you don’t need to buy the paper. Reggae music tell you everything what happen in Jamaica”.

Rising Fire - Free Blackman (1980)

Killer Roots! I haven’t stopped singing this in the shower since hearing Jah Shaka drop it at a festival on The Isle of Wight this summer. Originally released back in 1980, this heavy dancehall re-work hits the spot with a tight studio production.

King Tubby - Blessed Dub (2001)

Osborne Ruddock aka King Tubby is widely regarded as the originator of this music form. He was not a musician as such, but an innovative studio engineer and sound system operator extraordinaire. Electronically educated and working from a small studio at the back of his house in Kingston, Tubby was articulate in constructing specially customised equipment to pioneer post mix productions. People flocked from all over to check out his Home Town Hi-Fi Sound System, which was louder and clearer than any around and notorious for dropping heavy dubplate sounds that continue to resonate, and indeed reverberate to this day.

Overnight Players - Shaka The Great (2004)

A thundering instrumental here from the Channel One studio. Situated along Maxfield Avenue, a dangerous area of Kingston, the session musicians would often lock themselves in after nightfall for their safety, hence their given name. This is a version of the first track from the album ‘Babylon Destruction’, produced by Crucial Bunny in 1981. What I love about this acoustic cut is the live and punchy feel it delivers every time.

Sly & The Revolutionaries – Sensi Dub (1989)

With Sly Dunbar on drums and Robbie Shakespeare on bass, The Revolutionaries helped create the ‘Rockers’ style that changed the whole Jamaican sound from Roots Reggae to Dub. This track was released in support of the 'Legalize It' ganja campaign. It proudly claims to promote “the herb of wisdom which was found on The Tomb of Solomon is for the healing of the nation”.

Scientist – Kosovo (1999)

This is the flipside version to ‘Mr Babylon’, produced by Thomas Morgan and featuring lesser known Robert French on vocals. Scientist (real name Overton Brown) was the protégé and leading engineer of King Tubby throughout the seventies. He eventually took over the reigns to become one of the most prominent producers of dub music to date. The first dub album I ever bought was by Scientist, his extensive discography has literally defined an era. Mix up.

Augustus Pablo – Tubb’s Dub

Known to many for his deeply spiritual beliefs, Pablo (real name Horace Swabi) was famed for his intrinsic use of the melodica as an instrument. To me, he was both a fantastic musician and producer, with vision, depth and clarity. His record shop and label ‘Rockers International’ virtually shaped the reggae sound of the seventies. Although a tad crackly here, this rare production is bass heavy yet retains an earthy, organic feel to the sound.

Burning Spear - Black Wa-Da-Da (1976)

Legend has it that Winston Rodney's career began when he bumped into Bob Marley whilst walking through a field - the two began talking about music and Marley encouraged him to visit Jamaica's infamous Studio One, and never looked back from then on. Watching him sing ‘Jah No Dead’ acapella on a rock with a spliff in the acclaimed film ‘Rockers’, is truly inspirational and simply takes your breath away. This track is taken from ‘Garvey's Ghost’, the follow up to the poignant 'Marcus Garvey' album released a year earlier. The drum pattern, courtesy of co-star Lee ‘Horsemouth’ Wallace baffles me each and every time.

Mad Professor - Tumbledown (1982)

I love this tune. Taken from the series of acclaimed ‘Dub Me Crazy’ albums, this was the Professor's very first LP. Growing up in Guyana and relocating to Peckham, he eventually opened up the mighty Ariwa Studios. It was from here that this track was mixed and produced - establishing the UK as the first hotbed for Dub outside of Jamaica. Today, he still holds down a world wide touring schedule that knackers me out just reading it. Besides collaborating with renowned artists such as Johnny Clarke, Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry and Scientist, his whirlwind personality and a fascination of electronics might explain the diversity of his productions, having remixed the likes of The Orb, Massive Attack and even The Beastie Boys.

Pablo Gad - Hard Times (1981)

“Do you really want to know... about hard times?” Strictly rub-a-dub style here from a personal UK favourite, Mr Pablo Gad. He sang, deejayed and produced his own work throughout the eighties, featuring socially charged lyrics that are still relevant today more than a quarter of a century later. Riddim from the ghetto, lyrics from the streets.

Jah Shaka - Verse 5 (1982)

It is hard to find the words to explain how much of an inspiration Shaka has been to me. I first witnessed his Sound System in a field in Brighton many misty moons ago, hearing him chant conscious lyrics over a rumbling bass line that shook both my ear lobes. King of the Sound System as we know it, his award winning dances and numerous productions over the years have been a revelation to so many and for so long. This is my favourite track from The Commandments of Dub album series - pure Shaka in a session style! Use of syndrum and siren effects mixed over heavy bass and drum-led rhythms, Shaka rule.

Aswad - Warrior Charge (1980)

Finally, a tune to sum it all up. Aswad, meaning black in Arabic, are widely regarded as the UK's finest Reggae band. This track is featured in the final scene or Franco Rosso's seminal cult film ‘Babylon’. It epitomised the anti-establishment culture, aiming to bring awareness and understanding of the social situation in Britain at that time. The thunders claps, echoes, delays, horns and sirens combine perfectly to mash up any dance hall north east or south west. 

One Love and Jah Guidance

XYLØ - Afterlife (Fareoh Remix)

blank faces
here we are staring at these
blank pages
how did the plans we drew 
disappear in thin air
now all that's left are 
two blank faces
I know we let gold fade to black
give me time enough to bring us back

cause I've been pouring my whole life in you
trying to resurrect the love we grew
ya we're both confused
but I'll keep pouring my whole life into 
these broken roots

frustrated
we feel the cracks within our
foundation
that's why I'm digging every
day and night 
night and day
swear I won't stop
so please keep waiting

cause I've been pouring my whole life in you
trying to resurrect the love we grew
ya we're both confused
but I'll keep pouring my whole life into
these broken roots

I keep pouring my whole life in you
trying to resurrect the love we grew
ya we're both confused
but I'll keep pouring my whole life into
these broken roots

Broken Roots

O music of love, 
From you I learn 
The secret of closeness. 
O music of will, 
From you I learn 
The secret of future-creation. 
O music of silence, 
From you I learn 
The secret of universal oneness. 
O music of surrender, 
From you I learn 
The secret of cosmic perfection. 
-Sri Chinmoy
