My soul has a deep passion for all things groove—reggae, jungle, hip-hop, funk, soul, or any style that gets the feet moving and the head nodding. So, for this mix, I decided it was time for a dive into Latin Funk with some greats—Joe Bataan, Tito Puente, and Ray Barretto, alongside lesser-known artists from the 70s onward.
Bring on the thin-lofi-guitar solos, wah-wah flavours, rollocking percussion, blazing horns, and as much cowbell as you can handle.

Few figures in Jamaican music have shaped as many eras, artists, and sounds as Winston Riley. From the early days of ska and rocksteady to the explosion of reggae and dancehall, Riley’s fingerprints are everywhere as a singer, producer, label owner, and visionary. His legacy is one of constant reinvention, bridging generations through rhythm and melody.
Operating out of Kingston, Riley began producing some of the finest singers of the era, including Johnny Osbourne, Alton Ellis, Hortense Ellis, and The Viceroys. His studio and record shop on Orange Street — the famous “Beat Street” of Kingston — became a hub of musical activity, nurturing young talent and pushing the sound of Jamaica forward.

Step inside the echo chamber: Deep Dubs & Heavy Echos explores the global landscape of modern dub. From Kingston to London, Paris to Toronto, this mix brings together heavyweight basslines, hypnotic riddims, and spacious reverb-drenched textures that define today’s international dub sound.
Featuring deep cuts from Prince Fatty, Mad Professor, Paolo Baldini DubFiles, Dub Shepherds, Alpha Steppa, and Dubmatix, each tune builds on the foundation laid by the pioneers while carving new paths through delay, distortion, and bass.
Let the reverbs roll, the delays dance, and the low end move through you, a deep session designed for Sunday reflection, meditation, or pure vibing.

This mix captures the moment when dub music stepped out of the smoky analog haze of the 1970s and into the sharper, more expansive sound of the 1980s. The heart of roots reggae still beats through every rhythm, but the tools had changed — studios were now running 16- and 24-track machines, early digital delays, and lush rack reverbs that gave engineers new dimensions to explore.
From Scientist – Morning Glory to Aswad – Dub Fire, the mix moves through the transition from Kingston’s deep, hand-mixed roots to London’s emerging studio culture, where producers like Dennis Bovell – Dubbers Dub, Singers and Players – Kunta Kinte, and Dub Syndicate – Pounding System reshaped the sound for a new generation.
You’ll hear the dub evolution unfold - the heavy analog basslines of Black Uhuru – Puffed Out and Sly & Robbie – The Dub Of Gold meet the experimental layers of New Age Steppers – Aggro Dub Version and African Head Charge – Breeding Space, where ambient textures and early digital effects redefine what “space” in music could mean.
By the time UB40 – One In Ten – Dub Version and Linton Kwesi Johnson – Victorious – Dub appear, dub had become global — a bridge between Jamaica’s roots and the UK’s post-punk, electronic, and experimental scenes. It’s a sound both grounded and futuristic: deep bass, heavy atmosphere, and echoes that seem to reach beyond time itself.
