The weather has been unseasonably warm around here (yes British summer usually means rain) so here’s a few reggae/ragga/ska mashups for your BBQs and unlockdown parties. Well I say that, but it sadly increasingly looks like the unlocking of the lockdown will be delayed.. Which makes this yearning ragga jungle call to return back to clubbing either very topical or very redundant.
Created as both were for the Crumplbangers Reggae Challenge, I loved the new reggae cover of 2013’s Wilkinson single Afterglow by Nextmen featuring Eva Lazarus so much, I made a ragga jungle version!
This calls back to DJ Zinc’s Fugees 2003 bootleg by recreating it with two other Ready or Not sampling jungle tracks with the original Enya-sampling track. Are you ready for the Afterglow? Or not? Take It Slowly (like the probable date for opening up).

And DJNoNo‘s entry to the Crumplbangers Reggae weekly challenge seems to be a ska Tetris theme / DJ Assault ‘Ass N’ Titties’ crossover partly nicked from CheapyD but different sources, so not totally a reboot? Who knows with DJNoNo.
It’s very rude,crumpl and err, 8 bit? Well 64 bit since he handed me a crumple dirty fag packed with the sources scibbled on – it’s DJ Assault – Ass n Titties (Remix?) vs Prince Fatty – The Good, The Vlad and the Ugly and some Tetris N64 beeps. As you do. It’s been played on the latest podcast 348 which is just being edited.
