Following on from Vol 1 this is a live mix of rootical classics. This time around the spotlight's not just on Digital Dub but also some golden age roots and culture, some lovers and even a little dancehall (something for the whole family!) But if your only going to listen to one song it's worth holding out for the Alan Kingpin at the end - seven mins of Dub Reggae Gold.

The latest instalment of genre exhausting mixes comes highly recommended and is entitled Hudson's House Breaks.

Here's a site that comes highly recommended. Put together with alot of time and effort. It's a site dedicated to The Boss Mike Allen's Capital Radio Show. A broadcast that introduced me and i'm guessing many others to Hip Hop/Electro in the mid Eighties.
Hello my name is Gonorstein, that's Gon-or-stein (not German.) I've created this blog not only to upload my mix's but also to feature some nostalgic treats from the archives. I'm gonna try and keep it as upfront as possible but that's not always easy when your trying to juggle work, DIY, a family, sleeping and erm... DIY? But bear with me I'm gonna try and make it happen!
