As Hurricane Henri approaches the East Coast – specifically Connecticut – we start off the show with an all CT ska set to send some good thoughts their way!

Additionally, we listen to brand new music from John Bunkley, Buster Shuffle, and Captain Accident, recent releases you need to hear, plus take a return trip to the 80s for some rare ska tracks as an addendum to the Lost American 80s Ska episode from a few weeks back! The NYC ska concert calendar is also in full swing, find out what’s happening over the next few weeks.

DJ Ryan Midnight spins records and tells stories on 100% Ska Podcast, a weekly journey pulled exclusively from his vinyl collection. This isn't a random shuffle; it's a curated ride across the entire ska landscape. Each episode connects the dots, placing brand-new releases from today's vital bands right alongside the foundational sounds of 1960s Jamaica. You'll get the energetic anthems of the 2-Tone era, the punk-infused classics from the third wave, and deep-cut rarities that even seasoned fans might have missed. The focus remains firmly on the music's evolution and its current heartbeat, highlighting artists who are actively carrying the genre forward. Occasionally, the conversation turns to the people behind the music through interviews with bands, offering a glimpse into their process and passion. And while the commitment is to ska in all its forms, Ryan sometimes lets the set list wander into adjacent territories for a rare change of pace. Tune in for a genuine, crate-digger's enthusiasm that celebrates ska's past, present, and future, all heard through the warm crackle of analog grooves.
