As predicted, Wednesday’s Heavy Vibes radio show was an on-point selection of dub and roots reggae. Once again, special thanks to guest DJ Herb for his serious selection, on a Lee Perry tip. All on wax (as you would expect!), with some seriously rare gems in the mix.

As ever, it’s a pleasure to have you lay down some tunes Herb! Looking forward to doing it again!

You can download this entire session for the next six days, via our radio page, (which I would strong recommend you do!) and a full tracklisting is below.

No, that’s not a reference to my waistline (I know what you lot are like! Just because I’m the wrong side of 30!). Im talking about tonight’s live radio show which sees the return of our bass-heavy, smoke-infused reggae show, Heavy Vibes.

Tonight sees 2 hours apiece from Blunt Resident Agent M, and our special guest DJ Herb from Solution Sounds, who will be playing a 2 hour exclusive Lee Scratch Perry selection, just for us. You should know what to expect. Dub, roots, and plenty of Jah-praising sounds from 8pm Uk time until midnight!

Thats right, we’ve managed to be late for our maths lesson, and lose a few brain cells due to smoke inhalation. I am, of course, talking about last nights Smoking Behind The Bike Sheds radio session.

It’s that time of year one more. The leaves are starting to turn. That recent week-long hangover on some Costa del Beach or other seems like a lifetime away. The missus starts nagging you about decorating the kitchen. The hoodies start to come back out of the wardrobe. The car need tax (again).

Or, if you’re (un)lucky enough to be of school age, then this Autumnal change will signal the return to education. A mish-mash of sqeaky clean shoes and new pencil-cases, coupled with the confusion of new a timetable setup, and a blazer your Mum buys for you that is about three times too big for you. (hence the title of this post)

Keeping with this theme, tonights live radio show sees the return of our Smoking Behind The Bike Sheds session. That means tunes (of a sometimes questionalbe quality) selected by the DJs, reflecting on some of the stuff they grew up listening to, rightly or wrongly. To give you a better idea, check the tracklists on some of the previous shows. DJs tonight are Blunt residents Agent M, Marcus Hurley, and Doug. Live from 8pm tonight. Don’t forget your dinner money.

Our good friend Burt Fox has been keeping himself busy (and out of trouble!) across the pond, with his Extinction Sounds project…

Now, those of you in the know may recognise this recording from previous Riot Control episodes. Here it is, finally finished, with the vocal, and it’s as sweet as the proverbial nut.

Check it out here.

Im not gonna bang on about it, just check it out for yourself. Good work Burt, keep it up! – We look forward to hearing more stuff from you very soon.
