Author: Frankie B April 19, 2024 Duration: 1:34:19
As we gear up for Season 12 of FBRS on April 20th, we are going to play some of my favorite sessions to get you ready for 4/20. This Session is from August of 2016 - Roots and Culture 2.0. It was time when we had Samory’s first release and Chronology from Chronixx on top of some great singles from Kabaka and Kellissa. Its just sucha good selection of music. If you’ve been accessing the show on Podbean, you’ll notice I’m not there any longer. I’ve moved the show to Simplecast, as I’m now with the good people at Big Pond Podcasts. You can still access my show at every other major podcast provider and even expanding to a few more international providers as well. If you want to continue to support the show, show me some love and rate the show. If we get to 100 ratings, I’ll do a pure lovers rock or dub session. Let me know what you prefer in the ratings or jump on and say hi on Instagram!

Dive into the warm, bass-heavy currents of reggae and dub with Frankie B’s Reggae Session. This isn't just a playlist; it's a curated journey through the culture's vast spectrum, hosted by selector Frankie B. You'll hear the foundational deep roots and conscious riddims alongside the thunder of classic sound system cuts and the latest modern island heat. The magic of this podcast lies in the blend-Frankie seamlessly mixes rare vinyl gems dug from the crates with brand-new releases and those timeless anthems that never fade. Each episode is built as a continuous, flowing vibe, moving from heavyweight dubs to smooth lovers rock and the straight fire emanating from scenes in Kingston, London, and LA. It’s a session dedicated to the soul of the music, offering both education for newcomers and deep cuts for seasoned heads. Tuning in feels like getting a personal transmission from a knowledgeable friend who lives for the rhythm. So, for an authentic, immersive experience in reggae culture, this is the podcast to find.
