PRESSURE DROP SOUNDCAST

#!23 Featured Artists Oct 2008

October 07, 2008 06:48 AM PDT

It's that time again where we feature the music of three varied artists from around the world and talk to them about their music, influences, and more. We got a chance to talk to Dr. Ring Ding in Germany who is currently touring the states coming to California for the first time. Also Tommi Infamous the vocalist from New Jersey's Bombtown who just put out a new album called ?!INTERROBANG?! And Brett Tubin, guitarist for many bands including the Version City Rockers, Radiation Kings, Speakeasies, Jammyland All-stars, and many others. He been doing some engineering, and working on some solo dub music.

This month is probably one of the most varied in musical styles with these three artists playing a mix of ska, reggae, dub, dancehall, punk, hardcore, and more.

Turn the volume way up and let the Pressure Drop sound fill the room.

#122 Guest Selector: Andrew Bauer

September 28, 2008 09:40 AM PDT

This week we are pleased to bring you another fine musical selection from our good friend Andrew Bauer. Andrew has put together 2 mixes for us before and this time around has chosen a special theme.

Here's his words to describe it:

"Gabe asked me recently to put together another podcast. The first thing that popped into my head was to do a tribute of sorts to one of my all-time favorite Jamaican producers whom I feel is overlooked in many cases.

I first heard of Harry Mudie in 1998 when I randomly picked up "Harry Mudie Meets King Tubby in Dub Conference, Vol. 1" at a short-lived record store in Sacramento called Talking Drum. From the first track (Full Dose of Dub), I was hooked. It instantly became my most-listened to album for a long while. I am not an avid record collector, but over the years, I've bought up any Mudie-produced material I have found. While this podcast is hardly a definitive one to showcase his entire body of work, I hope that you enjoy listening and seek out more from this producer."

-Andrew Bauer
