Boomshot Alert: Currency Called Time

Jah Lil has another great tune on the road with Currency Called Time.

Lately I have really been enjoying the quality of releases from upcoming artiste, Jah Lil. This is his second appearance on Alert and this one has really been stuck in my head lately. Today I was just notified that one of my friends from high school has gone home and I’m just wishing I had some more time to spend with him. Hope you enjoy the tune as much I did!

Wow this one just blows my mind. The arrangement, the funk, the drums, Les Nubians and of course the veteran deejay, Beenie Man! Big up to Andres Levín from Venezuela who put the project together.

Boomshot Alert: Blessings Find Me

Boomshot Alert for Blessings Find Me by Sherwin Gardner @sherwingardner

This track Blessings Find Me by Trinidadian artiste Sherwin Gardner is one I discovered last Friday and I have been playing it a lot since then. Must have played it at least 10 times that evening. The track is only 2:06 long, so when you get to the end you might want to hear it again like me. What is so sweet to me is the chords and melodies and of course the words are just a great thing to…

New Song from Dre Z Melodi

Victory by Dre Z Melodi, new reggae production from Music For Life

In May of 2022, I went to the the infamous Big Star Bingo where my Queen Jessica likes to play bingo. I discovered quickly when we got together 10 years ago that Bingo is not really my thing. I decided that I would go with her every so often and take my laptop and build riddims sitting next to her while she plays. Doing this provides me with a place to get seriously focused and create. My…

Boomshot Alert: Temptation

Boomshot Alert for Hollow Point with a new single called Temptation.

Every time I hear this riddim drop it catches me and grabs me! It’s so hypnotic that I can’t refuse it. Big respek to Little Lion Sound for such a heavy track.

Boomshot Alert: Forward

Boomshot Alert for my favorite album of the year from Bitty Mclean, and Sly & Robbie: Forward!

Today I just went through the annual wrap-up that Spotify gives me every year. I wasn’t too surprised to find out that Bitty McLean‘s fine album with Sly & Robbie, Forward was my most listened to album for 2023. It was released on TABOU1 in collaboration with Sly & Robbie and I thought many times listening to it that this album is really a masterpiece. Such sweet melodies and hard riddims from…

Boomshot Alert

Boomshot Alert for @MackaB and his new single, Believe It Or Not

One of my favorite DJ’s from the 80s who is still going strong in the UK is Macka B. He’s always dropping lyrics that make me think and go deeper and this one is the same. The Riddim is based on Aswad’s Dub Fire Riddim and the horns sound great! Macka B reminds how the music is so influential with how we’re thinking: Believe it or notMusic play a part inna di madnessBelieve it or notMusic have…
