Feb 6th, 2015, marks the 70th year since we’ve been blessed with the lovely energy of Robert Nesta Marley. To make things more interesting, Bob Marley was born in the same year as my mother and passed away when he was 36 years of age, the same age I am right now. This is beautiful to take is, as I look at all that he was able to accomplish over his short time on this earth. We are continually blessed with his wisdom and love every time we listen to his songs. As I was making this mix, I've said many times 'Thank you Bob for blessing us with these gems that never seem to get old.' I've listened to a lot of his interviews he's had and you can see that this was not a regular man, he was truly a saint, and angel, a god send to spread the positive energy that this world truly needs. He was the bridge between black and white, and he always brought his message of love & unity. Hope you enjoy this mix as much as I did creating it. One Love!Track Listings:01. Exodus (12 Inch Mix)02. Iron Lion Zion03. No More

BeyonceThis BEYONCE Mix was created from END OF TIME, making sure to BLOW your mind. You close your eyes having thoughts of SWEET DREAMS, knowing that your GROWN WOMAN attitude makes me LOSE MY BREATH! I'm so DRUNK IN LOVE and manage to stay DIVA, with FLAWLESS demeanour on the VIDEO PHONE begging to START OVER. Now its just ME, MYSELF AND I…. scribbling on paper XO, saying I MISS YOU - BROKEN HEARTED GIRL. As i stand in the light of my HALO … there you stand with that debonair EGO! Told the limo driver to PARTITION, tonight DANCE FOR YOU. THAT'S WHY YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL as i look above to see NO ANGEL knowing sometimes PRETTY HURTS. I remember one day you told me THAT'S HOW YOU LIKE IT…i must admit, it did made me JEALOUS….thats when I told you to SAY MY NAME. Knowing that I move different from the SINGLE LADIES, i still can GET ME BODIED my BABY BOY. I imagined to be CRAZY IN LOVE in the SUMMERTIME wearing BOOTYLICIOUS jeans as you call me MINE. So DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE, thinking IF I WERE A BOY but couldn't

This mix is very personal to me, because if there was no Sizzla, I wouldn’t be a DJ, I wouldn’t love reggae music as much as I do, I wouldn’t know as much about myself and our great ancestors. To put it simple, I would be a different person. I remember many nights at the university of Western Ontario chilling with my good friends Steve or Matthew dealing with some good food, and taking in the biggest Roots Rock Reggae artist Sizzla Kalonji for hours and hours, no movies or tv, just reggae music, and most of the time it was Kalonji. It seemed like every day Sizzla had a new track or full album to take in. This experience lit my love for reggae music… and this flame burns more and more every day, because this music is not just music, its culture.

ROOTS REDEMPTIONNEO SOUL - Heavily based in soul music, neo soul is distinguished by a less conventional sound than its contemporary R&B counterpart, with incorporated elements ranging from jazz, funk, and hip hop to pop, fusion, and African music. It has been noted by music writers for its traditional R&B influences, and conscious-driven lyrics.Throwback Mix - created in 2009 ………. Enjoy and spread the LOVE!1. LOVE ULTRA - DWELE2.
