100% Ska Podcast S07E04 – From Anarcho Ska-Punk to Sweet Soulsteady and Back

Author: DJ Ryan Midnight February 23, 2024 Duration: 1:05:51

Once again we find the pendulum of ska shaking back and forth this episode with a wide variety of sweet soulsteady, reggae, and all the way to anarcho ska-punk to scratch that energetic itch.

We’ve got new release music from Tyrone Turtle, reissues from Coolidge (vinyl debut) and Against All Authority, sweet ska from Spain, and a few fun covers scattered throughout.

We also continue our dedication to spotlighting newer digital-only music (the cost of record pressing is so prohibitive!) with the likes of Fratelli Lambretta Ska-Jazz, The Write-Ups, The Fishska, and Rock Shed Rangers!

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.
