The perfect mix for unwinding to the weekend. Ben Sims the British Techno DJ is also a great dub / reggae fan. For this Back To The Roots Mix the DJ puts together this 7″ vinyl collection packed into a 90-minute mix. One of the best Reggae / Dub mixes I’ve heard of recent!
Check out the stream below, download and track list…
“Digging deep into the bass heavy selection with this podcast, featuring many of my fave roots cuts (most coming off original JA 7″s, so excuse the authentic crackle!), all lovingly mixed up with their versions, traditional sound system dub sirens and Roland space echo a plenty.
Hugely inspired by nights dancing to the legendary ‘Jah Shaka’, the movie ‘Babylon’ and the much loved ‘Roots Mania’ tape a mate used to sell on Camden Market”.
Enjoy!
