Another hazy night playing at Vinyl Fridays with Earl Chinna Smith and the Binghistra Movement 🪘🇯🇲🔥

I went to St. Thomas, Jamaica 🇯🇲 the home of Kumina music, to reason with master drummer Cha Cha Ben, experience raw Kumina drumming, and record samples for Tembo, a new drum machine by my friends .beings follow them to preorder your own Tembo! 🇯🇲🪘🔥 (Kickstarter link in my bio)

I went to visit master percussionist Bongo Herman in Kingston 🇯🇲 We talked drums, and recorded samples for Tembo, a new drum machine by my friends . Preorder link below! “60 years of legacy can’t erase so easily” 🥁🇯🇲🌴

Back by popular demand! Further explorations in heartbreak rocksteady and Jamaican soul from the 60s and 70s. Some known, some obscure, all about longing and quiet desperation. A vinyl mix for late nights, slow dancing, and reflection. All from original G- vinyl, brought from my various trips to Jamaica.
Enjoy! 💔🔈Link in bio
