Life To Live, Love To Give - more 2009 45s in the mix

Hello reggae-massive worldwide!

First of all, thanks for all the positivity about the site and the mixes (choice of concepts, choice of tunes, the mixing; been getting lots of positive feedback from all continents and I highly appreciate that!). Been quiet for some time here, but I'm back, with hopefully a new UK roots styled mix coming soon. For now it's modern JA and EU roots, 2009 stylee.



(picture contains 45s of Sweet Jamaica riddim on Lockdown label, included in the mix)

2,5 months since my last modern mix, about time for a new one. Haven't had much time and chance to look out for new quality tunes. Must admit that I haven't heard many that triggered me to go and order a few either (not taking into account the UK-style output, which will get into a seperate mix soon(ish)). However, I still had a bunch of 2009-tunes waiting to get the BMC-treatment, so here they are. One hour, variety of styles, though all modern roots. The mixing didn't turn out as well as I normally aim at, but wanted this one to get out there and due to time-issues left it what it is now. Music nice same way, so check it out, hopefully find some tunes you didn't know yet and go get 'm. All taken from 45s, no full tunes used and soundsamples added: the usual recipe.


Lots of European productions here once again. See if you can stop yourself from moving when you get to that lovely Sweet Jamaica riddim! :-)
