The Alton Ellis Mix - Reggaexx

Posted in Alton Ellis, Distinctly Jamaican Sounds, mix, mp3, music blogs, reggae, websites

From the dude that brought us "The Distinctly Jamaican Sounds Christmas Mix" comes a tribute to the king of rocksteady - Alton Ellis:

"when I first read that Alton Ellis was about to undergo cancer treatment in London I immediately said a prayer for the man who has been revered by many as the "Godfather of Rocksteady." I then went to my music and put together an Alton Ellis mix."

Alton Ellis:
"By 1966 the red-hot double-time ska beat had given birth virtually overnight to a much slower, hiccupping rhythm dubbed "rocksteady," and it was Alton who was to be its midwife. "One evening in the studio," Alton recalls, "the bass man didn't show up. So Jackie Mittoo, the keyboardist, had to play the bass pattern on the piano with his left hand, but he couldn't hold it steady, and we all thought the line was so fresh and nice. When the bass player turned up next time, Jackie insisted that he play what Jackie was playing with his left hand. That's how rocksteady was born; we called it so that night." (reggaetrain.com)

Music Blog of the Week: Back In The Day

Posted in coldcut, music blogs, ninja tune

While listening to Dangerscouse's new mix on b00mb0x I discovered a track from the Coldcut stable I hadn't heard before; Steinski & Mass Media - It's Up To You (Television Mix) - Cheers Stu!

With the help of Google I tracked it down and found it was out as a Ninja Tune 12" (ZEN12 011) in 1992 and on the Coldcut and Steinski - 'No Rights Given or Implied: The Original Samplers' album (Bond Street BS 001) from 1993. This led me to find this music blog full of old school joints including that album to download! Enjoy
