Night of the Living Dread, featuring Band on the Wall’s go to reggae selector Mikey D.O.N and special guest DJ Serocee returns to Band on the Wall on Friday 5th June. We caught up with Mikey D.O.N to get a selection of some of his favourite reggae tunes ahead of the night. Check out the playlist on Spotify here.
Barry Brown – Peace & Love
‘This tune epitomises what roots reggae music is all about. A message of living in unity no matter what colour, race or creed produced by Jah Thomas.’
Capleton – Attack Dem
‘Capleton smashes it on this riddim. Do i need to say anymore?? “Attack dem with the righteous…”
Gully Bop & Stylo G – Who She Want
‘Jamaica’s man of the moment teams up with UK’s dancehall sensation in a comical lyrical clash about which one of them the women would prefer to have in their life. Dancefloor filler.’
Barrington Levy – Murderer
‘One of the sweetest voices in reggae music comes with an absolute 80’s classic produced by Jah Life over the classic rework of Clement Dodd’s ‘Hot Milk’ Studio 1 riddim.’
Chronixx – Play Some Roots
‘Germany’s Silly Walks stable comes up again with the goods and this collaboration with Jamaica’s finest is a modern dancefloor hit. This riddim also features Dalton Harris, Shaggy and Ras Demo amongst others on this heavy riddim. Get familiar!!’
