Handpicked DUB maiden voyage! This first show begins with some uptempo fare and gradually slows and darkens along the way, increasing the headiness as it progresses. Featuring Meat Beat Manifesto, Dub Trees, Blue Train and more... comment

This one picks up steam quick to the uptempo fare, then progresses back into deeper darker territory as we go on, featuring tunes by Lone Ranger, Love Joys, Sister Nancy, U Roy, and an absolute classic Barrington Levy

This time we careen into the more modern side of the dubbed up sound, with tracks focusing on scale and modern studio trickery as opposed to the historical tone of the episodes thus far. There are tunes on this one from The Orb, Grey Area, Bandalu and several of Bill Laswells variously named projects, including a remix built from the original master tapes of Bob Marley

The theme is no theme...just a collection of wicked tracks. Big classics from Willie Williams (a tune which was later covered by The Clash), Horace Andy, King Tubby and the Roots Radics Band. Hidden gems from Ernest Ranglin, Jah Thomas meets Tubby, the Aggrovators, Lloyds All Stars and the Upsetters. Solid tunes hard and true, ranging all the way from happy vibes to a more serious conscious message, touching on just a bit of darkness in places.

Deep and serious style. Taking us into the winter season. brooding depth from the likes of Alpha and Omega, Mad Professor, Tubby, Tommy Cook and The Aggrovators, Gregory Isaacs, and a big cover tune from Horace Andy.

Uptempo to keep you warm in the cold winter months...this time we start it off with some ska action from early Wailers and Skatalites, then stay upbeat with classics from Freddy McGregor, Jah Buzz, Horace Andy vs Mad Professor, Johnny Clarke, classic Coxsone sound and some death star storming with Scientist
