RR Podcast Volume 1: Adam Prescott - Roots & Culture

'It's strange, how the dances are changing' - Barrington Levy sang, referring to the new vibe that would slowly but surely replace the analogue sound with its digital counterpart. During the early to mid 80's, the music climate in Jamaica was in a state of constant flux. Studios were being updated and new producers were able to enter the scene, made possible in large by the new, more compact, studio setups and the decreasing need to hire live musicians. It was an exciting time and a very productive one - music was being released at an ever increasing pace and the sound was charged with anticipation and potency.

The CL-01 mix is centered around this period in time, just before the full reign of the computer when the Channel One studio was still the epicentre of Jamaican dancehall. It collects some of our favourite tunes from a collection of thousands of records, built over the last decade.

We hope that you will enjoy this mix as much as we did putting it together.

Double Fuse - Be Persistent (feat. Vince Gutsy, Taylor Mace, Wiz Khalid)

I love old school dub (think Prince Jammy, Scientist, King Tubby) and reggae - not a massive fan of dub that sounds digital on purpose. So although I do everything on a computer I try where possible to use sounds that are authentic and have a 'real world' feel.
I also have a soft spot for hip hop - but as I can't rap to save my life I mostly makes beats/wait for hip hop remix comps to come up so I have some vocals to play with.
