Down Town Top Ranking 9/23 / Wax Poetics Reggae Magazine Release Party!




On 9/23 Down Town Top Ranking took a special turn when Deadly Dragon joined up with VP and the great Wax Poetics Magazine in celebrating the release of Wax Poetics annual Reggae Issue with Augustus Pablo on the cover. For the event we were proud to welcome Black Moses Sound featuring the legendary Clive Chin (of Randys / Impact fame) and DJ TWICE.

The night was sweet blend of SERIOUS music, hyped crowd, a whole heap of old friends and some of the most knowledgable reggae heads around.

Here's Carter Van Pelt -- host of WKCR's Eastern Standard Time (89.9 FM Saturdays from 6am to 10am) and all around reggae historian, collector, selector and writer





And here's Carter with Black Moses' DJ TWICE





Uni-T from Human Crest Sound





Shinpei from Five Star Osaka with Keely Dances





Selector JD with Mike from VP





Selector JD with Isis Swaby (Pablo's daughter).
Check www.swabychic.com & http://www.swabychic.blogspot.com/




After big sets of Roots and Rock Steady from Deadly Dragon's Scratch Famous and MR K, Black Moses Sound got on the set and Clive Chin began to play a series of HUGE selections from the great Augustus Pablo. Many of the selections that he drew from came from JAVA JAVA JAVA (universally known as the first DUB LP ever made) and Pablo's debut LP that Clive Chin produced called THIS IS AUGUSTUS PABLO on KAYA. Here's a photo of Clive when he was producing that LP





And here's Clive introducing one of his massive selections.......





With DJ TWICE on the mix





Anyone who has come by our shop...or really anyone who knows reggae music will know the photos of David Corio ( http://www.davidcorio.com/ ) . He is one of the great portrait photographers of all time and has photographed nearly every musician of consequence over the last 25 years. Well here is the great photographer facing the lens himself!





For their last set of the night, Clive Chin was selecting deep from the Randy's catalog with a dangerously scorching set of obscure Chinese (Mandarin or Cantonese, I couldn't tell!) language Ska and Rock Steady that caused I, the man Scratch Famous, to pull the bloodclaaaaat tunes up for forward after forward!!!!!!





All in all...a huge night night of great music and great vibes. Nuff respect to everyone who passed through!

Down Town Top Ranking 9/16 with Special Guest KING MILO ALL PURPOSE SOUND!

Down Town Top Ranking 9/16 with Special Guest KING MILO ALL PURPOSE SOUND!







Each and every Thursday we here at Deadly Dragon Sound present DOWN TOWN TOP RANKING - REGGAE REVIVE SESSIONS. Each week we have special guests come down to play from big, well known sound systems like DOWN BEAT, BLUNT POSSE and KING RYUKYU to smaller sound systems, collectors, and selectors who have great taste and love for the music. At Down Town Top Ranking we celebrate the vinyl and we try to keep the music in the realm of 60s, 70s and early 80s. Basically...Its an analog night, and by keeping it that way we hoped to create a warmth and a consistent vibe where we could delve deep deep deep into the music we love without anyone pressing us to play Murder She Wrote! Well.... things have worked out brilliantly for the most part and the night has become a fixture for fiends of Foundation Sounds. This last week our good friend KING MILO ALL PURPOSE SOUND came down and blessed us with two wicked sets including a wicked run on the JOSHUA's WORD riddim










A whole heap of NY's finest selectors were in the building including the man called Top Cat -- here' s a photo with Milo and Top Cat





and the great GRANTY ROOTS (Eastman Sound) blessed the place with one of my all time favorite NY entertainers...the man called SCREECHY DAN:




Well...While KING MILO touched on some massive roots and reggae classics, Deadly Dragon's own MR. K burned down the spot with a set of wicked Studio One and Treasure Isle Rock Steady





K's big tunes had everyone feeling nice like sugar & spice...especially Deadly Dragon's Selector JD with the Resting General





Queen Majesty got on and dropped a whole heap of massive chune -- some BIG forwards for a tune like Gaylads "AFRICA". Here's QM and FADDA BLUNT listening to Selector JD's huge set which included a great Tommy McCook version of JAVA!





So many big tune Man like Screechy had to jump pon the mic to make intro!





Deadly Dragon's Scratch Famous jumped pon the set and delved deep into the riddim runs and some serious roots and culture...and once he spotted the great Johnny Osbourne he dropped Johnny's tune on ITAL INTERNATIONAL 10" called "THE LOVE OF MUSIC" which he had picked up that day. Mass forwards followed!!!!!

Here's Johnny and the great Peter Roots a.k.a. Rock of Gibralter





and KITANO CREATION SOUND in the spot!




All in all a wicked night! Thanks to all who came out and supported!

NUFF RESPECT!!!
