After a long long summer break, the Tropical Heat podcast is back just when temperatures are getting close to zero degrees here in Germany.

On the decks, it’s the mighty King King Disco spinning some heavyweight Reggae stuff:

This is part two of our new 2 part Mixtape called »Voices & Lyrics« – A Seventies Versioning Ting! This will give you a little history of the Jamaican Riddimculture during the 1970s. We let Singers and Deejays team up on a whole heap of extra deep versions from that era, mixing Voices and Lyrics.

Fulljoy!

This week’s episode of the Tropical Heat podcast is once again presented by King Kong Disco out of Hamburg city, Germany.

After they took us on a fantastic journey to Studio 1 universe last time, they have a look at what has become of those classic riddims 20 years after their release today: their new mix »DJ Unity«,

is a mix dedicated to the versatile reggae deejay styles of the 90s. During the 2-hour jugglings, we meet dancehall producers like e.g. Bobby Digital or Donovan Germain who started their legendary careers in that decade. On top of the productions, we get a completely new generation of deejays who couldn’t sound more different than their 70s predecessors did: artists like Shabba Ranks, Tony Rebel, Terror Fabulous, or Terry Ganzie had a major influence on what is known as dancehall ragga today.

Enjoy!
