As a celebration of buying the WordPress Space Upgrade (i.e. I can now host mp3s), and inspired by listening to Top Ranking: A Diplo Dub, I thought I'd do a big post about a few of my favourite reggae and dub tracks. The first is one of my favourite covers of anything ever. A dub cover of Kraftwerk's The Model. Heard it played at a house party one, and spent the whole next day trying to find it. Overproof Soundsystem - The Model [...]
A lot of soulful, funky stuff this Wild Weekend , as the ghost in the iPod picked another musical six pack out of the air once again.

Jerk is a method of cooking meats that comes from the original inhabitants of Jamaica, the Arawaks. They roasted meats over fires of pimento wood from the allspice tree. Pimento wood gave a distinctive flavor to the meat and is still used for jerk grilling in Jamaica. Jerk marinades and rubs are often quite spicy with Scotch bonnet peppers. Recipes vary widely, but true jerk seasoning contains allspice. This recipe is for chicken, but pork, goat and even fish are also jerked. [ Recipes ]. " TGIF ! " 01. Laurel Aitken [...]

I think there's a general consensus about town that Kanye West's latest album, Graduation , is consistent with the high calibre of his previous two efforts. Although, (in my humble opinion of course) it sags a little in the middle, I am in agreement with the prevailing reaction. But look, we all know that Kanye's work relies heavily on samples (not that I'm complaining like) , so here's a comprehensive breakdown of tracks that make up this great record. MP3: Elton John - Someone Saved My Life Tonight [...]

U Roy, Line Up and Come (Tappa 1987) This relatively late-career album by U-Roy isn't considered one of the legendary toaster's best, and the fact that my favorite track on it is an instrumental dub ("Iron Gate," produced, like the rest of the LP, by Tappa Zukie ) might bear that out. Still, there's plenty to like, not least the Limonius cartoon cover . Understand the understanding, man. U-Roy - "Iron Gate" [...]
