Dropbox just in: Dynamq – “Reggae Feeling” prod by TuneIn Crew

By chrome September 25, 2010

I rarely check my inbox these days, but the first track i checked today and its a winner. This literally just got in. Time print says 10 min ago and its sweet buttery goodness. Check this anthem, they resell it for 99ç on itunes. Bought it right away. Lyrics go some like this: “Play some Burning Spear…. Play some sweet reggae music tonight, and sweet reagge music and rub a dub feeling for life”. Great just the right wake up tune for me. I am playing tonight and this is just what i will do. Gimme an extra reggae set, yes man.

But why does the artwork on reggae records always have to look like this? i could only post it as mini thumb.

Caribbean Girl Riddim

By tommy September 16, 2010

I really enjoy this riddim, because it picks up the positive “island-vibe” that you hardly get to hear in dancehall music anymore without it sounding corny. I put up my three favorite tunes on this by Beenie Man, chromemusic-favorite Cecile and Busy Signal (of course). So put these on your iPods – or whatever your listening device of choice is – and pretending it´s summer should become a lot easier…

Jan Delay’s german remake of Vybz Kartel’s big tune Clarks!

By Schowi July 23, 2010

I’m chilling at the portuguese Algarve right now and enjoying the sun and just got a message from Jan Eißfeldt aka Jan Delay aka aka aka… That’s what he wrote:

“ich hab ne version von dem momentanen dancehall überhit “clarks” von vybz kartel gemacht. gerne auflegen, posten, bloggen und verbreiten wenn ihr`s mögt!! hab das original auch noch mal beigelegt.. peace, eizi”

If you don’t understand german: Jan is big in germany, he loves Nike Air Max sneakers & that’s what the song is about. Enjoy it as much as I enjoy the sun! Peace, Schowi
