On any post, if the link is no longer good, leave a comment if you want the music re-uploaded. As long as I still have the file, or the record, cd, or cassette to re-rip, I will gladly accommodate in a timely manner all such requests.

And Lee Scratch Perry...

And... February

Every February I try to have a theme that I carry through the entire month. It began with Black History Month (fuck Trump!!!) & has included Fems of February, Trip-hop February, Synth-pop February, well you get the idea.

This month I am featuring music from an artist that I hold in the highest esteem. Founder & head of Ariwa Studios, producer Neil Joseph Stephen Fraser, the one & only Mad Professor is that man. I have shared his music here more than any other artist (except for the stealth Muslimgauze links) & with the addition of this month, that record will go unchallenged.

Mad Professor has worked with fellow artist around the world, a truly eclectic bunch of collabs. So this month each day will be Mad Professor & somebody new...
 


Starting off the month is the one artist Mad Professor has collaborated with the most often, the two having released more than a dozen albums & a bunch of singles together. This is their first joint. Two mad men in Dub.

    1. That's too big of a mouthful even for me. I'm sticking with AND???. Two mad men in Dub to while away the rainy day. Thanks, brother.

  4. Saw Scratch a few years back in a small venue with Mad Prof at the controls. Around 40°C and no airco, after about 15 minutes Mad Prof somewhat fainted or so (the echos disappeared from the sound) , and Scratch? Well, he did his thing as usual, respect. Can't believe I don't have this one, so thanks a lot as always! Ja-Mike

    1. That's one thing about Scratch...throughout it all he kept on keeping on with it. Gotta praise his persistent greatness & great persistence. That's a cryptic quote "the echos disappeared from the sound".
