Dubmatix Sticky Icky Reggae MixThe Beastie Boys - Brooklyn Beats To International StreetsBeastie Boys’ Anthology: Sounds of Science, Michael Diamond (Mike D) says: “We had all been influenced by Lee Perry’s productions. We were into how on reggae recordings there would often be a ‘dub version’ on the b-side of a single, a practice that got co-opted by a few punk and early hip-hop singles as well.” Who knew? When their debut “License To Ill” was released in 1986, almost 40 years ago - it was fresh and had a great sense of humour, playfullness that on the surface could be disregarded as white-boy rap, but if you took a clo...

He’s continued to release beautiful music that speaks to our spiritual sides, and his legacy will live on for generations to come. R.I.P. Jimmy.

Dubmatix Sticky Icky Reggae MixClassic Jazz Excursion: The Roots of SkaThe link between jazz and what we now call reggae goes back 70+ years to the time of Count Basie and Duke Ellington’s big bands in the 1940s and ’50s, which were very popular in Jamaica. These records arrived through sailors, migrants, and sound-system operators like Coxsone Dodd and Duke Reid, who travelled to the U.S. specifically to buy jazz and R&B 78s. The island absorbed these sounds and fused them with mento (Jamaica’s folk music), African rhythmic traditions, New Orleans R&B (Fats Domino, Rosco Gordon), and bits of Country and Gospel. Out of this blend...

The sounds we gravitate to, that we identify with, and that is part of what I try to do here on Bass Culture - pull back the curtain and find out who helped shape an album or entire generation - Gussie Clarke is one of those “wizards of oz” - a man who helped shape hit after hit, that still spin on turntables and sound systems today.

Dubmatix Sticky Icky Reggae MixThe Boogaloo Sounds of NYC’s 60s & 70s Latin ClubsBeing a drummer and bass player, I gravitate towards the foundation of a song - the groove, percussion, and how instruments weave in and out of “the pocket”, be it the short offbeat guitar skanks heard in reggae or the syncopated piano stabs heard in Latin music. That’s what drew me to reggae - the lock-step agreement of groove between the bassist and drummer that allows the rest of the band, organ, vocals, guitars, etc, to either support the core riddim or thread around it, adding depth and melody. The same goes for funk, afrofunk, and other similar genres...

Dubmatix Sticky Icky Reggae MixReggae Meets CumbiaI had a show in Dresden years ago, and the opener was a DJ who played cumbia. When her set began, the dance floor instantly filled with people laying down synchronized dance steps, which was eye-opening and fantastic fun to watch. It’s inevitable that these two genres would merge, as Cumbia originated on the Caribbean coast of Colombia and includes African, Spanish (colonial), and indigenous influences that date back to the 16th Century. For this playlist, I went down the rabbit hole seeking groove enlightenment. PLAYLIST Lucky Salvadori; Chalart58 – Simulacro Ticklah – El Dia De Suerte...

Dubmatix Sticky Icky Reggae MixReggae Frequency: House EditionI’ve always seen/heard the parallel between reggae and house music—namely, the Steppers vs. 4-On-The-Floor groove, and have been drawn to that fusion of the two. Back in 2002, I’d slapped a King Tubby sample over a house beat, and it was a revelation to me (I can fuse this) that song that became Journey To The Center Of The Dub. The King Tubby sample was removed, but the idea remained. On the other side of the pond, in the UK and across Europe, this style was already established and in the clubs. I can’t profess...

Dubmatix Sticky Icky Reggae MixThe Evolution Of 80s DubThis 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.

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...

Dubmatix Sticky Icky Reggae Mix1971 Roots Reggae RisingThe previous decade saw the shift from Mento to the rise of Ska, the slowdown morphing into Rocksteady and eventual transition to something slower with a heavier groove, lower bass, and a new voice - one that communicated the news lyrically of what was transpiring within Kingston and surrounding areas - Roots Reggae. The Shift: From Rocksteady to Roots The late '60s gave us rocksteady, smoother, soulful, love-driven tunes with slower rhythms and tight harmonies. But by 1971, Jamaica was changing. The people were speaking out about politics, poverty, Rastafari, repatriation, and resistance. And the music began...

Dubmatix Sticky Icky Reggae MixBass Culture: Early 80s Reggae DancehallThis mix dives deep into the crucial transition period of Jamaican music during the early 1980s—those rich, rugged years when the roots reggae era evolved into the raw pulse of early dancehall, also known as rub-a-dub. The 17 tracks featured here capture the stripped-down riddims, streetwise vocals, and echo-laden dub textures that defined this moment in time. These were the years when roots consciousness met sound system swagger, and the groove got heavier, slower, and more bass-focused. As political tensions rose in Jamaica and the optimism of the ‘70s roots began to fade, artists and producers responded with...

Dubmatix Sticky Icky Reggae MixBass Culture: Lovers Rock: The Soulful Soundtrack of Black British IdentityLovers Rock is a romantic subgenre of reggae that emerged in mid-1970s London, blending soulful melodies with reggae rhythms. It was pioneered by producers like Dennis Harris, Dennis Bovell, and John Kpiaye, who established the Lovers Rock label in 1977. The genre provided a softer, more melodic alternative to the politically charged roots reggae of the time, resonating deeply with the Black British community. Dennis Bovell played a pivotal role in shaping the Lovers Rock sound, producing hits like Janet Kay's "Silly Games," which reached number 2 on the UK Singles Chart in 1979.
