A while back I threw a little reggae party and this was the setlist that I spun. It is not the most thorough or obscure compilation of reggae music in the world but I think its a pretty solid set. I tried to have a good variety of genres to play that would give a decent representation of the depth of reggae. Here you will find some rocksteady, dancehall, soul, funk, disco, roots, and even a modern dub track. This compilation is mixed live as I played it, complete with the bad mixing, crackling and other goodies you get from spinning vinyl. I also mixed it at a slightly higher speed since I wanted people to boogie. As the title suggests, there is a theme to this mix. People were probably too drunk to have realized it when I played it. But I hope you like it. Definitely more to come.

I'd like to thank Al for mixing the recording with his studio wizardry.
And feel free to ask me for a cdr, espcially if you were there.
