The Rub's DJ Eleven is on some mad planned-trajectory destruction this year. First, Houston Rocks It warmed it up with a big slab of sweltering down south shit. Then he went all rowdy with the wyle-out Best of M.O.P. mix....
expand review Now he's here to help you with the comedown. Featuring almost 40 tracks of roots/reggae/dancehall classics (both old and new), J.A. Goods is a blown-out and expanded version of the mix that he did for the Lemon-Red.org Mix Series just last month, and it's exactly what you need for the ridiculously (and prematurely) warm weather right now. Everything from King Kong to Warrior King, I Wayne to Singer J, and even a few tracks your fratboy roommate will know from Sizzla and "Bob." Focusing more on making a good-ass mix, and less on being an obscurist twat, Eleven employs some serious murderation tactics here. This is the goods, for rill. -Chris Lemon-Red
Everybody's getting up on the dancehall thing recently and we say, more fiya. Hip Hop djs were all into it back in about 90-94, but nowadays they've either stopped playing it or have been playing the same damn songs for the last...
expand review 6 years. Vinroc and Triple Threat are picking it up again, bringing in the newer stuff and some more dug up bangers. The cd gets set off live from the Beatville Lounge and Vinroc pulls a nice quick mix intro (even got a couple dub plates and skratching up in there). Then goes straight for the gut with Sean Paul's "Infiltrate." He keeps the whole thing moving with songs from all eras, just the right amount of skills, and a couple of remixes (check the Vinroc reggae mix of Aaliyah's Try Again). Tracks: Infiltrate, Who Am I, Murder She Wrote, Pose Off, Bookshelf, She Nuh Ready Yet, Dwayne, Selassie Warning, Action, Wicked Dickie, Number 2, Zunguzung, Limb By Limb, Kuff, Bubblers, Black Roses, Know Fe Chat, Hot Gal Today, way more. Nice addition: Vinroc reggae mix of Aaliyah's Try Again. -the mgmnt
For "Reggae, Roots, & Stuff," Vinroc blesses you and yours with only the finest in soulful reggae jams. Though you may know Vinroc for his turntablist wizardry, he keeps all trickery aside for this one. If anything, the mixes are simple (no...
