Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from November 7, 2024 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

The big one for reggae for me was the Legend box set from around 1990. I didn't live through the 70's golden age for punk or reggae but I got on board at the end of the 80's with some dancehall and then got deep into roots and then dub. I love reggae. Amazing Jamaica came up with it's very own roots in the 1960's first ska then rocksteady and then roots. Such a soulful sound. I don't know if anybody here is into Prince Far I and Mikey Dread but they are my favourite reggae artists right now.
