I started on the soundsystem circuit early 80s still in school, paper round money would buy my records. I had a love for music especially Roots from a young age growing up amongst older siblings where music was very much the order of the day.

When the soundsystem stopped playing around late 90s I would always still collect music but for personal use so I was very greatful when the opportunity came up to play my favourite style of Reggae on the radio.

“Roots and Culture” It means a lot to me it’s my upbringing, my culture, education and feeling the message the music it has is felt around the world

Roots music to the world and beyond Skidney Irie’s show is deep in the Roots and culture and I have been a selector on many sound system circuits since mid 80’s.

I grew up listening to reggae music so of course reggae music is my first LOVE.

Listening to sound tapes from J.A to UK sound systems. I was also involved in a sound from south and west London. I later found love in hip hop/soul/funk/jazz etc excluding pop lol which lead me to become an all rounder in music.

I started buying music from vinyl to cd`s and been collecting for the past decades. I had so much love for hip hop n rnb that i started playing in wine bars and private parties and a few clubs.

After all dat I came back to reggae of course as it`s my first love and decided to do radio, Confident as i am, my first show i was sweating buckets LOOL n sooo nervous but after the first hour, come in like i been doing this for years lol.

Radio has taken me on tour with Lovella Ellis in grenada 2014 and worked with NEREUS JOSEPH, STARKEY BANTON, have also met many Great artist such as yelowman ,brigadier jerry, likkle twicth,daddy u roy, freddie mcgregor,queen ifrica sanchez frankie paul and many more.My Journey continues.

Blessed love

I didn’t really get into my music until around age 13 then when the bug finally bit me, I started playing every bit of vinyl in the yard. I then found interest in my big brother and musical teacher, DJ Pascoe’s, sound system the great Stereo HI-FI attending whatever house parties and family gathering I could. My early passion was for reggae, and I soon started collecting JA and UK sound tapes, the likes of Saxon, Java Nuclear Power, Coxsone and of course, straight out of Stonebridge Volcano Hi-Power….

In my early 20s I started to expand my musical horizons and began my many years as resident DJ at club and bars in Covent Garden, Fulham and Chelsea delivering mainstream Disco, Soul, pop, house, rock, and everything in between.

I went on to form my mobile DJ company providing the sounds for corporate events and weddings with a similar mainstream music brief.

I have now reached a point that I would really like to explore the great reggae and soul music that I was purchasing from my late teens but never really played out with.

On ‘The Sunday Session’ show you will hear all the back in the day classic jams, you will know and love and be compelled to sing along with.

My first memories of Music would be helping my Dad make cardboard sleeves for his records, Mum worked at a record pressing factory in the early 80’s, she used to bring nuff records home for Dad (sleeveless of course).

When I was about 7 years old Mum took me to work with her and they let me keep as many records as I could carry home. Not long after that I got my first record player and this is what started me on my musical journey.
Dad used to take me out to reggae dances with him when I was young and I would watch the soundman string up the sound and instantly I knew this was something that I wanted to do when I got older.

I started to build my own speakers and I eventually built a small sound system that I would use for friends & families parties and eventually I worked as a mobile DJ doing lots of commercial music.

Due to family commitments I took a very long break from all musical ventures, over the past year I have come back to continue my journey in music.

I’ve started building my own sound system again which I’ve called Audio Revival Sounds. Started making my own speakers and building back my rig. I’ve also starting DJing again. I‘ve also started my own monthly reggae event, bringing the passion back into my life. I’m a multi genre DJ but Reggae is my passion.

Selector Briscoe

ZigeDub is the name and real authentic reggae music is the game, to know the game you have to know the rules and to know the rules you need to be educated.

I started my musical education back when I was a kid collecting tapes and 45’s and rolling with sound systems around my endz, first tune I purchased on vinyl was Ranking Dread’s Fattie Boom Boom in 1981 and I have not looked back. I have followed the sound system culture and the reggae scene for so long it sometimes frightens me hahahaha.

I have moved around from country to country and have experienced different cultures thus the “Man from Foreign” tag, I’m presently back in the United Kingdom (Land Of My Birth) and feeling the vibes to the max.

I have always considered myself a facilitator of reggae music working behind the scenes in production and development of new acts and spreading the gospel of real authentic reggae music.

What do you call a person who loves to play music and have a good conversation?

Some people would say they’re a DJ, and some would say they’re a presenter, other a host. For me, it all about the music and sharing positivity, who needs a title?

Music has been a part of my life from early on—from listening to sounds of Jamaican gospel at home to the dancehall. I don’t even recall the first reggae song I heard, the riddim and beat seems to have always been there. My parents bought me a radio/cassette player when I was 12; TDK90 cassette tapes and Sony headphones were my treasures throughout my youth. Living in London you could listen to music 24 hours on various pirate stations and purchase copies of Jamaican sound clash tapes. In the late 90s I brought my decks and set up my little system and started recording mixes. I shared these with friends and work colleagues. Raving on the London scene over the years, I’ve always enjoyed good vibes, I created this at home. My neighbours throughout the years have heard the sounds of
reggae music. Is a mus!!

I’m a newbie to broadcasting and am looking forward to playing some sweet reggae music from yesteryear to nowadays with you. I might even switch it up a little. Join me for MissyLaneyUs Musing to discuss topical issues and offer a word of encouragement for the journey called life.

I have always been influence by music even from birth growing up watching my father play out regularly.

Reggae being my first love of music I began to build my collection in the early 2000s.

I then began to get into Dancehall/Bashment music later then into Soca as well as always being in touch with my background of Seychelles & Ghana .

I have a real love for music with real rhythmic instrumentals that’s hits you musically.

My Show “Reggae Meets Dancehall Old Meets New” will include new flavours like this mixing it with lots of genres including Afrobeats, Zouk , Sega, Soca, RnB , Garage & More.

Gen’ral began selecting music for his mom’s house parties at the age of 10, and ever since he has always wanted to be the one playing the tunes rather than being in the listening audience.

Reggae became the music that would dominate his life after the release of the Bob Marley Exodus album when he was 12 years old. Too young to get into dances, he realised if he became a box boy he could get entry to a dance before the gateman was set up. From being a box boy, after studying and imitating the mic men around the sound, he soon forged a career as an MC with a reputation for chatting reality lyrics with a wicked sense of humour, a humour that still permeates his radio presenting.

He went on to build his own sound system with some friends, Music Incorporated, and that relationship would continue for 28 years. When pirate radio in the UK became prevalent, Gen’ral had his first taste of radio presenting on Jive Fm, and fast became one of the most popular presenters on the station. Internet radio has given Gen’ral the ability to broadcast to the world and he has listeners in Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Israel and Gambia, as well as the more traditional bases for Reggae like Europe, the Caribbean and the United States.

Equally adept performing live or on the radio, Gen’ral is truly humble about the secret of his success – “I just play music that I like to hear myself and I don’t follow a hype, if the tune sounds good, it doesn’t matter who sings it, I will play it. My job is purely as a vessel for the truly talented singers, songwriters, producers and players of instruments to get their music across to the world”

TBC…

I first began to show interest in music at the age of 10 in my Mum’s front room. I used to play her 7″ and 12″ records (vinyl) by various artists: Dennis Brown, Gregory Isaacs, Burning Spear, Al Green, Randy Crawford to name a few, when I came home from school whilst she was at work but I always got caught for leaving the amplifier on.

My interest in music continued to develop when I met up with Steppaside Productions, this subsequently led me to picking up the microphone chatting lyrics alongside various singers and MC’s: PT Lickshot, Tubby T, Stally, Ments, Froggy, Governor Tiggy to name a few.

However chatting lyrics was not my strength, so I continued to pursue my dreams and took my musical talent to the turntables thus enabled me to enter and win a in house 45 Sound clash called “Badman sound clash” which I won 3 years consecutively in a row (2001-2003)..

I got my first break into the music world by liaising with various sound systems, Dj’s and playing at various venues. Over the years I got bored of the same old monotonous routine, also the music scene was changing and moving in a direction that did not suit my musical beliefs.

Having been away from the music scene publicly for a while, I still play at private parties and keeping myself musically active. I decided to return to the music world via the internet (radio land), and to date I am still here presenting good quality music to the world.

I’m representing The Burnin Sound System here on uniquevibez.com which was established around 1982 by myself and the local legendary sound operator “Bush” (RIP).

Based in rural South West UK we soon established ourselves on the underground circuit playing a variety weird and wonderful venues and parties including the super blag to get our sound into the rain drenched 1985 Glastonbury festival and playing all weekend putting the old school diesel generator under sever pressure when dropping some big bad bass lines.

Since those early days I went on to help establish a local Pirate radio station (Shockwave Radio) where I ran regular shows playing the best reggae tunes of the time unit the DTI came a knocking.

Between the sound system and the radio my love of music has not diminished and I am grateful for uniqevibez for giving me the opportunity of sharing the good tunes with you all, It’s a good fun show, so why not log in and enjoy.
