MIX: Can't Conquer We - a UK & EU modern roots mix

Here's one for the dubheads out there! Roots from the UK and mainland EU with plenty of old-school dubs, even more BASS and overall wicked vibes. Digital style, classic roots style, heavy UK steppers style, it's all here! All mixed in the usual BMC-way: one continuous mix, no full tunes, added sound samples and source-info given so you can go and track down these tunes yourself. Variety of singers and producers, one hour of niceness. Two older tracks in here, Dixie Peach's Slaughter and the Disciples Vintage 10", late 80s tunes that fitted in just nice, so were included.

The intro and Old Time Something by Solo Banton are taken from promo-mp3's spread by Reality Shock for the Reggae Got Talent competition. A nice initiative that I took part in by contributing the first 20 minutes of this mix. No results in on that yet, postponed to unknown date, but the total mix was finished and I wanted to get it out to the people, cause I'm very pleased with this one: IT NICE! So here it is, for one and all to enjoy, 60 minutes of heavy dub vibes, not for the weak-hearted! Enjoy.

MIX: Hard One Fe Dem - a modern UK roots style mix

BMC alongside SPRINGLINE JAMAICA To celebrate the one year anniversary of Springline Jamaica online radio (not operational anymore these days), a large celebration was held on friday april 25th 2008 with a marathon-broadcast at their radiostation with contributions from a whole heap of people, among which a mix of myself. Here is said mix up for listen for one and all, including the Springline jingles alongside my own. Mix is focused on modern reggae with a UK roots sound. Not all from the UK, but I just use that description to give a general idea of what to expect. Contains contributions from big names from the scene like Jah Warrior, Russ D (Disciples), Twilight Circus, Dougie Conscious, Barry Issac, Manila Jeepney crew, King Shiloh + Dub Creator and more. Producers and engineers that still make wicked dubs for the flipsides of the records and make sure the bass is in full affect in their productions. Those I've been in contact with are very nice people too who deserve all support. The sounds in the mix, as usual, are shorter pieces of the tunes mixed together to a 45 minutes showcase of modern roots and dub. Most, if not all, of the music in this mix is still available for sale, so if you like what you hear and want to hear the full tunes in good quality, I'd say go get 'm! A good source for finding (amongst others) UK styled music is http://www.reggaemusicstore.com , from the man Jah Warrior himself. Enjoy!
