Words from the Clap:

Gator Boots, pimped out Gucci Suits and a quarter tank of gas in a new E-Class Benz. Sometimes musical rules are just meant to be broken. With no exceptions, here comes GATOR BOOTS, a new imprint born in the true spirit of underground. No holds barred, vinyl only and extraordinarily limited we proudly present bootlegs for the sake of bootlegs. Can you dig it? We KNEW you could!

Gator Boots Volume 1 comes at you live n' direct representing a sonic snap shot of contemporary American pop music, fused with an underground application. "Prototype" might not be the one, but it certainly comes close, leading to ecstatic dancefloor reaction. "Umi Says" shine your light on the world with a deep 4x4 cut that fills the crowd with emotion aka that warm fuzzy feeling. "Brothers Gonna Work It Out" insists that its time to clean up the pimps and the pushers at the same time with breakbeat house beat that's rough and ready for primetime. "Done It Again" explores the softer side of Grace Jones is edited and expanded into blissful moments of psychedelia.

Remember that Tropical delight of a B side, “These Lonely Nights”, from that dynamically dynamite Bob & Gene picture sleeve 45? Well, it’s BACK! This time with a little love from producer extraordinaire, part time Dap-King ringer, and full time Antibalas compatriot, Victor Axelrod (AKA Ticklah) – with a little help from his Kingston trio, The Inversions.

House Of Soul Essentials: Bob and Gene featuring The Inversions - I Can't Stand These Lonely Nights

Episode 10th. 

I am very happy to provide this new Red Stripe Disco mix. Very first volume was recorded & put online about 3 years ago. I never expected to collect enough records to provide 10 mixes but finally here it is. 

As usual, you will find in it, apart from a couple of more obvious songs, rare & obscure Jamaican related Funk / Disco / Modern Soul & Soulful Reggae. 
Thus, this new episode is a selection of under the radar or hard to get records involving Jamaican musicians & producers, from the late 70's / early 80's, that I am bringing to you with luv!

All of the songs here are selected from the original vinyl source, a majority of it having been released in Jamaica (the remaining was released in the UK). Please apologize the crackling on some of the songs, but I wasn't able to source better copies... The Jamaican way! :)

Let's go deep into Jamaica funky music! 


Red Stripe Disco Vol. 10 - Selected & Mixed by Waxist

Finally, here is a new RED STRIPE DISCO delivery with this 11th episode. As usual, very happy to have been able to cook a nice mix of Jamaican / Reggae-related Modern Soul, Funk, Dubby Disco & Soulful gems. A few of them will sound obvious but the mix also contains a handful of really rare & under the radar jamaican gem that I am happy to provide here. 

I hope you'll enjoy this new selection, made entirely from OG records, that will perfectly fit with those sunny days I guess. Don't hesitate to leave a quick feedback & share the mix if you do like it, it's always appreciated here :)....

DJ Gravy + DJ Corey Chase — Double Barrel: Reggae Samples and Hip Hop Classics

My afternoon set at Nuits Sonores festival (Lyon - France)played & recorded on my lovely DJR400 mixer. It's only about Island Disco / Modern Soul jams, mostly Jamaican.  Recorded to go along with the sunny days :)

Waxist DJ Set | Nuits Sonores 2015 | La Sucriere - Lyon

Red Stripe Disco is a digging project conducted by DJ Waxist which focuses on exploring the Disco / Funky / Soulful side of Jamaica (or involving Jamaican people through its diaspora around the world, in the US, the UK or Canada). Red Stripe Disco takes you to a journey into some unexplored musical territories, going through genres for which Jamaica was not especially known for, such as Disco, Modern Soul, Boogie or Funk and even Disco Rap!

The music selected here is recorded from the actual original records & is the result of countless hours of research for some of the records played!

Enjoy the trip to this beautiful side of Jamaica!

Red Stripe Disco Vol. 2  - Selected by Waxist

Red Stripe Disco Vol. 3 - Selected by Waxist

Another RED STRIPE DISCO episode with plenty of Jamaican grooves. This one has some slower jams but we stay under rare, under the radar, obscure influence. All tunes are selected from OG vinyl source.
Find here some soul, disco &amp; funky tunes out of JA island or from JA Diaspora around the world (UK, US &amp; CAN).


Red Stripe Disco Vol.4 - Selected & Mixed by Waxist

Here is a new episode of Red Stripe Disco selections. Once again, it does concentrate on obscure, under the radar yet qualitative records related to Jamaica and/or Reggae.

This episode contains a lot of different flavors - from US soul/funk covers, to Modern Soul, Disco & Soul cuts! Materials come from JA, UK, US & CAN and involve JA-Related people.
All records are selected under their OG format, most of them were never compiled or reissued.

Enjoy the Disco Skank!

Red Stripe Disco Vol. 5 - Selected & Mixed by Waxist

A first selection of vinyl records from Jamaica, all focused on a disco mood!
These are either obscure tracks or more known 'jamaican classics', but all are groovy!
To be continued soon...



Red Stripe Disco Vol.1 - Selected by Waxist

I was very impatient to drop this new episode of selected groovy-reggae joints. So here is the 6th episode of Red Stripe Disco. 

As usual, you will here a fine selection of JA/Reggae related Disco, Modern Soul, Funk & Soul joints. Most of them are really under-rated & misknown or obscure. All of them are productions outta JA or involving JA people around the world (UK, US, CAN). No need to say none of them have been repressed or compiled - not that I know at least.

Enjoy the Skanky JA Vinyl Attack! Feedback & Sharing Welcomed!
