JUMP UP is Jamaican Music Made The Old Fashioned Way. Vintage style on vinyl records, by both legends of Jamaica's musical past, as well as modern artists carrying on the torch.  Do The Ska! Feel The Reggae! 

This page is operated by Roger Chavez, guitar player for the chicago ska/reggae/dub band known as "On Your Marx."
Some of the material featured here is rough demos by OYM, short ditties that may/or may not become full length songs in the future, but mostly this page is just a playground for me to share some of my original sounds with the world even if it does not pertain strictly to OYM.

The songs listed are only restricted by the mood I might be in the day I start recording them.
