Smile Jamaica Ark-Ives: Digital Dubplate – Roots Reggae vs. Mutant Dubbers!

June 2, 2017 Robert Nelson Leave a comment

Something nice gonna happen to your ears!

Greetings,

Took a week off from Smile Jamaica for Memorial Day Weekend. I am building a permanent home for the Smile Jamaica Ark-Ives. So I spent 7 hours in my garage re-arranging vinyl for preparation for my big move in a couple weeks. Check it out!

Nearly 40 years of record collecting gotta fit in a Library 80 feet long and 10 feet wide.

I hope it all fits!

In the meantime, enjoy a Digital Dubplate of one half Orthodox Jamaican roots mashed up with Space Age Mutant Dub. I cooked this up in my Secret Dubratory.

You’ve got Roots Reggae inna mi New Age dub!

Smile Jamaica Ark-ives: Digital Dubplate Cannabliss Preview!

April 7, 2017 Robert Nelson Leave a comment

Greetings,

KRCL is able to spin Smile Jamaica because of its Non-Profit license. That means 2 shows in the Spring and 2 in the Fall are devoted to listener pledges so I can get 60 months of creative roots and dubbers.

Since my livelihood is a sound editor, it is easy for me to hunker down in my own studio, The Secret Dubratory,

to craft what I call Digital Dubplates so I have weekly content (1 million minutes listened on Mixcloud!) on the Smile Jamaica Podcast.

April is Cannabliss!

Greetings,

In the middle of Spring fund drive at your station that rules the nation. So in order to keep fresh roots on the podcast version of Smile Jamaica, I cooked up three hours of my specialty: Mutant Dub.

Requested by a Twitter follower. These are the heavy bass and echo with Jamaican drum ‘n’ bass with modern electronic and echodelia.

Play loud so the bass pulsates!

Smile Jamaica Digital Dubplate: Snowbound Excursion – Jah-nuary 27, 2017!

January 27, 2017 Robert Nelson Leave a comment

Greetings,

I knew it was gonna be trouble. Last Saturday we got 6 inches in the Salt Lake Valley. My garage is in the alley way. Dangerous for getting high centered and sliding into power poles.

So I waited for a lull in the storm and moved my car to the front street. My street was unploughed and there was snow accumulated over the curb.

Loaded up my stacks of wax and suitcase of disks. And headed for KRCL.….

Goosed my All Wheel Drive Subaru to plow through virgin snow. Best intentions….. 4 wheels on top of snowpack just skidded me to the curb and I was wedged in a snow drift and dead in the water.

Two hour wait for AAA. First show I had been a no show for in 27+ years.

So after I got towed out and back into my garage, I hunkered down in my Secret Dubratory and pulled together 3 hours of Digital Dubplate sound.

Snowmageddon Stylee!

Smile Jamaica Digital Dubplate: Jah-cember 2016 – Mutant Dub A-Z!

December 2, 2016 Robert Nelson Leave a comment

Greetings,

Been on a cratedig during the Thanksgiving Holiday. So I have been away from the decks at KRCL Smile Jamaica.

My fascination beyond Reggae is what I have called Mutant Dub for nearly 30 years: Take Reggae drum & bass and weld it on to contemporary dance, dub echo and modern pulsating electro beats.

So I hunkered down in my Secret Dubratory this week and cooked up what I call Digital Dubplate shows. Bonus roots and dubbers.

From A to Z. From Audio Active out of Jah-pon to Zombi Italian dubbers. Massive Attack, The Slits, ON U Sound, Bill Laswell and Thievery Corporation.

Dub ‘n bass will put a smile pon your face!

Smile Jamaica Digital Dubplate: Motown Inna Trenchtown!

April 1, 2016 Robert Nelson Leave a comment

Greetings,

Took a little excursion. My parents are in the process of becoming Snowbirds: moving from Fort Benton, Montana to Sun City West.

Complete with coyote warnings, a family of bobcats behind the solar array at the end of their block. And warning pamphlets about blackwidows, recluse spiders and Gila monsters.

Gila-Monster-Eyes (1) — No doggie doors for I ‘n’ I in Sun City West!

Here’s how you get to my parents place.

Take the exit by the strip mall with the hearing aids shop on the corner
Turn left at the Dementia Care facility
Turn right at the massive Urology complex
Beware golf carts. They share the road

So knowing I would be away for a week, I cooked up what I call a Digital Dubplate show: Strictly out of my Ark-Ives:

Motown inna Trenchtown. All the great soul covers inna Reggae Stylee.
