I'm loving this Reggae, Dub, Ska and Rocksteady internet radio station |
LISTEN: 'Heavyweight Reggae.' Yep, the name is right, and the channel delivers.
My old pal Rusty Hodge from SomaFM, a longtime independent internet hero and early blogger and NASA space shuttle fanatic -- such a cool guy! -- ah, focus, Xeni!
Okay, so Rusty and SomaFM just launched an awesome new SomaFM internet radio channel dedicated to the classic roots of reggae.
Heavyweight Reggae. It is SO GREAT.
I'm a GenXer, and when I was first getting turned on to reggae in the mid-1980s, this is what it sounded like. I am so grateful this channel exists.
Here's the blurb Rusty sent around when they turned it on.
I'm going to keep this radio channel locked all weekend.

I'm really excited to announce our first new channel of a new decade:
Heavyweight Reggae: Reggae, Dub, Ska and Rocksteady
Your music director and host is DJ Dion "The Watts" Garcia, the genius behind 7" Soul.
When Dion and I first discussed a reggae channel over a year ago, he suggested a format that "would cover Jamaican music of the 60s, 70s and early 80s, specifically, what I like to call Heavy Reggae."
