Tetsu presents Wackie’s Mix

Wackies-12

It’s been a while since I posted a strictly roots reggae mix, so I was excited to find this little gem online tonight courtesy of Tetsu. The Wackie’s label has always been at the top of the class when it comes to killer Jamaican rhythms, dubs and vocal cuts. I know you’re going to like this one. – Meatskull

Meatskull presents Another Angle Vol 34

AA_34

A real winner of a mix this week including the big dubstep tune of the moment from Joy Orbison, a track from the David Lynch Mashed In Plastic mixtape, Shawn Lee’s new venture Lord Newborn & The Skulls and some killer spiritual rasta vibes from Ras Michael. I have to say, I’m really happy with this week’s selections, and I know you will be as well.

Meatskull presents Another Angle Vol 33

AA_33

I just had a listen back to this week’s ‘Angle and I know you’ll enjoy it whatever the occasion. Ok, I wouldn’t throw it on at  a party or high energy gathering, but if unloading a bowl or hanging with your lady/man/ladyman is on the cards, then look no further, dear listener. From neo-classical piano to sub heavy dub and beyond, Vol 33 is a winner all the way.

love to all,
