New reggae mix! Recorded live on 10/10/17 using all vinyl (and mostly 45s)
The songs on this mix focus on a wide range of tough topics: racism, oppression, inequality, political corruption, war, violence, poverty, colonialism, police brutality, and more. Despite the subject matter being difficult, the singers and musicians of Jamaica manage to put an uplifting spin on things. The lyrics drive home messages of siding with "good over evil," urging listeners to "stand for the right and mash up the wrong." During the last segment I shift toward messages of escape (i.e. "stepping out of babylon").
