Reggae

Post by BainbridgeShred »

Who are you guys in to? Post up good tunes here. The only rule is you can't mention Bob Marley.

I've been listening to a lot of Lutan recently, some Fanton Mojah, always a lot of Alborosie, Barinngton Levy, Dennis Brown. Who else. Keith and Tex are bad ass.

Lutan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0TldabAyLc

Alborosie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6Bb3yVZmKQ

Golden Hen Riddim Mix : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVOnY576EeE

Real Life Riddim Mix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABCCLkDY0jc

The last two are especially amazing, not to take anything away from the top two. The verse on Golden Hen at 4:30 includes some amazing voice control

Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad!!!! Seriously one of my favorite bands... awesome guys from Rochester. If you like John Brown's Body, you'll LOVE GPGDS.
BRICK!

I've seen them (Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad) and Matt is right, the know how to lay down so spacy grooves. I'm personally I big fan of the dub genre of reggae, so I might be biased, but either way they are worth seeing live that's for sure.

I've been listening to alot of new dub & reggae lately. All of these are worth taking a good long listen to.

-Giant Panda Guerrilla Dub Squad
-John Browns Body
-Groundation
-Soldier of Jah Army (SOJA)
-Easy Star All-Stars (Highly recommend Dub Side of the Moon album or Radiodread or Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Dub Band)

One of the greatest music video's of all time........ "Electric Avenue" by Eddie Grant

Not sure if ill get shot for mentioning this here, but its sort of an offshoot of dub/reggae if you like it a bit (or a lot) ruffer and tuffer. Dubstep. Its like Dub, DnB and Breaks mixed together. You can get some more mellow stuff that is closer to Dub

Check out Caspa, Rusko, Skream, Benga, Filthy Digital, 16 Bit, Goth Trad, Ben UFO..sorry for naming only well-known artists but its off the top of my head.

Dude! I have that CD "Scientist rids the world of the evil curse of the vampire" with that song on it. You've inspired me to bust that out again, I remember one of the Grand Theft Auto games had that CD as the soundtrack so I downloaded it way back when.

Scientist is the shit. I remember he has some album about going to space, playing space invaders and pac man and then winning the world cup all set to ill dub music. Dude is nuts.

I'm pretty intrigued by that Major Laser stuff, might need to check some more of it however when it comes to reggae, social living is the best.
