I was searching one of my hard drives and found a folder full of old reggae and couldn't help but peep how many classic covers of American soul music there was.  Thus, I threw a bunch of them together as well as a couple of roots reggae tracks in that folder and a special intro combing a Marcus Garvey speech and the intro from Rockers.  The second track is called "Ethiopia" and the Garvey speech I sampled speaks of praising Ethiopia and this speech had an influence on the Rastafarian movement in the 1930s.  "Oh yeah I gets deep."

Enjoy.  I think I'm going to release a bunch of mixes like this.

  2. this was just absolutely amazing. i can't stress that enough. you probably get requests a lot, but i loved what you did with the barrington levy track. hopefully you can consider remixing some of his stuff exclusively. i think it would a wonderful pairing.
