New DOUBLE episode of BMC's Reggae Mixes with a mix based on the music of my favourite reggae singer: DELROY WILSON! I've made quite a few mixes by now, but my favourite singer was still waiting to be the focus of a mix and here it is. Often overlooked, Delroy Wilson doesn't always get the credits he deserves. Double episode, could have easily been a triple or more, so many good tunes by this man! Mix lasts a little under 80 minutes and contains many of my favourite Delroy tracks and some version and deejay cuts. Tunes are from a variety of labels, studios, producers and musicians and cover quite a big part of his career, though mostly focus on the period late 60s - late 70s. His ska recordings for Studio 1 are left out. It's interesting to hear the change in his voice over the years, here tried to show with 4 versions of Delroy's Dancing Mood going in steps through his career. Personally I've always rated his later period with his voice more matured a bit higher than his early years, but both periods are extensively covered here. Sadly Delroy Wilson died in 1995 at the way too young age of 46 years old, but left behind a catalogue to be enjoyed forever. What a singer. For all tracks sources are given so if you rate the music, you can track down copies yourself to get the full tunes (as always, here only short pieces are used in one continuous mix, no full tunes) in good quality without samples. Support the music! Check it out and if you appreciate the effort, be so kind to let me know via a comment, email or donation to keep the show running (see paypal button on the right side of the screen).

Big up to all people that commented on previous mixes, your appreciation and the mutual love for and conversations about the music is what it's all about. Bless, BMC

Final mix of 2007 modern roots 45s. 40 minute mix of consciousness and lovers, the way I like it! Again some wicked European productions in here like the superb rocksteady styled Family riddim on A-Lone (same guys from the excellent Dirty Dozen riddim as part of my previous 2007 mix 'More Life'). Also the latest riddim from the Irie Ites camp that never fail to impress, this time with an update of Culture's Down In Jamaica (with involvement of Mafia & Fluxy again) and the Maximum Sound camp with two wicked riddims Black Board, of Lee Perry fame, and Ashanti Warrior. Ofcourse also plenty of room for JA productions with riddims like Guardian Angel, Gunman, Legal (with VC, remember him?) and more. Nuff big tunes here. I also had to include She's Royal in this mix, since I didn't do so yet and it's a big tune of last year. As always, no full tunes, shorter pieces mixed together with added sound-samples and at low, though very listenable quality. This will give a good impression of the tunes, a promotional thing. I keep on repeating this, but hey, it's the way I feel, so again, if you like what you hear I encourage you to buy the tunes yourself to get 'm in full, good quality and sample-free and to support the industry. Information on label and riddim of the 45s is given in brackets (label - riddim).
