Wow, what a year for reggae. Well the return of it anyhow! Busy got jailed, and released, and still dropped the biggest tunes of the year! We have some big relicks, big roots and big dancehall outta both Europe and Jamaica. We have the return of Penthouse and Digital B running some big riddims again! We see newcomers Exco Levi, Chronixx, Chan Dizzy, and Protoje cement their place at the top of the scene. We see Romain Virgo pretty much reach super stardom while staltwards Delly Ranx, Gentleman, Tarrus, Vybz, Milly, Konshens, Mr Williamz and Mr Vegas lead the pack again.

Channel One NYE w/ Undercover
I'm pretty excited to be asked to jam for an upcoming NYE party (thanks Tobi) featuring the almighty Channel One Soundsystem! So as I do, I thought I would bang out a little mix to celebrate and promo the BIG night! So without further ado, we have 50 stone cold classics from the rocksteady and reggae eras, through to roots, dub, rub a dub and digital styles! Check the gig if you are kicking around the shakey isles of Auckland, New Zealand. It's gonna be a dope night - in one room we have Channel One Soundsystem booming the Jafa rig supported by NZ's best roots and culture selectors, while the dancehall party hosted by Bigga Tingz will be popping shit off next door!!!!!! Zippy 1. Zippy 2.
