This week's guest is Beatdown Sound, the powerhouse duo bringing authentic Jamaican-style sound system culture to the Midwest. Chef Chux and Selectress Kinky P break down their journey from discovering dub and reggae at legendary events like Notting Hill Carnival to building their own handcrafted five-way speaker system, engineered for deep, immersive bass. They share insights into the roots of dub, the influence of icons like King Tubby and Lee “Scratch” Perry, and why their sessions are more than just parties—they’re a movement.

From curating intimate, high-energy events on Chicago’s South Side to serving up homemade patties and espresso at their shows, Beatdown Sound is redefining what a sound system experience can be. Whether you’re a reggae enthusiast, a bass lover, or just curious about the culture behind dub music, this episode is packed with knowledge, passion, and plenty of bass therapy.

Melody Kane Presents Carnival at 1xtra (clean)

Carnival time is almost here… the streets will be alive with music, colour, and pure energy. Here’s a mix to get you ready to moveee 💚💛

🥁 NOTTING HILL CARNIVAL PREP | 100 - 160 BPM Soca/ Dancehall Mix | 2025 💚💛

@bonnetheemixtress (Bonnét Thee Mixtress) joins us for the episode of her radio show - Behind The Magic! Behind The Magic is a monthly show where in a world that feels darker, and where life feels harder, Bonnèt soundscapes some of the magical things that life has to offer to remind us that ✨magic ✨exists, and more importantly, that we all deserve to experience it. 

@bonnetheemixtress Bonnèt Thee Mixtress is back this month with a ‘Notting Hill Carnival’ special to mark the month of August. From the aftermath of the Notting Hill Race Riots to present day, Notting Hill Carnival is not only a celebration of Caribbean culture and heritage, but a reminder of the resilience in the face of cultural division. Carnival also reminds us to acknowledge the contributions from the Windrush generation, their descendants, and the imprints we see in present day.

Enjoy a steadily increasingly fast mix ranging from reggae, dancehall, soca, calypso, and bouyon music, to give you that carnival feeling before the bank holiday. 

Drink responsibly, give your babe a dutty wine, and never forget; Brilliance Transcends Mediocrity, always.
