There’s something special about sifting through tune after tune, looking for rare songs, special versions, dubs, and putting together a playlist that I’ve never heard before. Some of you may know these tracks, others will be new to you as well.

I hope you enjoy this mix, and I encourage you to share.

Dig deep into the roots with this handpicked set of rare reggae treasures from the 70s and early 80s. Each track is a gem, some long forgotten, others hiding in plain sight, blending heartfelt vocals, conscious lyrics, and deep, soulful rhythms. From soulful harmonies by The Eternals to the rebel spirit of Little Ian Rock, and the heavyweight dub of Dhaima & Dennis Brown, this mix captures the magic of uncovering rare cuts that deserve to be heard again.
