dj zhao - Balmyard Rockers

re-up with new cover for those who missed the bus last time round...

more than a few would agree that modern roots music have made a powerful comeback, after an entire decade or more of taking the backseat to dancehall ragga. this one is all about the conscious side -- a few of my favorite cultural "one drop" riddims from past few years, and a few all time classic cuts. (this is from 2 years ago and today i would have left out the tiny bit of junglism but whatever)

balmyard means a place of medicine, of magic and healing. this mix excludes slackness and gun talk almost entirely (only 1 tune - Cham, kind of heads in that direction, but not really); you will find no chi-chi-man bashing, no misogyny here.
