Brian Dixon of the Aggrolites Selects! http://daoster.podOmatic.com download (audio/mpeg, 43.64Mb) Description: That's right...Brian "boomboom" Dixon of The Aggrolites has taken time from his busy schedule to select a couple of tunes and answer some questions!

So…your new album, “Reggae Hits LA,” is highly anticipated…tell us about it Brian: We're stoked on the new album! We had three songwriting rehearsals and then went in the studio and recorded it. It has a different sound than the first two records, largely due to the fact that we recorded it in a different studio. The first two albums (along with MANY of the L.A. Ska/Reggae records made over the last 10+ years), were recorded at Signet Sound Studios in Hollywood, which sadly closed it's doors on January 1st. Kingsize Studios is a really nice place for us to work. They have a "vintage" Neve console, with the much coveted 1081 modules. Sick! The studio did not have the type of ribbon mics that I usually use on the drums (RCA 77 or 44). I almost rented one, but decided to try a Neumman M149 that was sitting around. That mic ended up being the basis of the "sound" of the record. There was almost no Equalization or Compression (or any other audio processing on this record). The new album is in Stereo too. The room was small enough that it was easy for us to simulate reverb on various instruments by panning certain mics away from the M149. 2. Your new album is getting released just over a year since your Hell-Cat debut…how do you guys pop out material so quick? And why did you make us wait so long for your second album?Brian: Sorry for the long wait! Actually, to me, it feels like we're just getting a handle on what we're doing. The way I see it, the first two albums were almost exercises in Reggae. Especially the first one. Getting a bunch of guys in a studio with no songs written and no ideas other that playing "Dirty Reggae" (whatever that is), writing songs as fast as possible (so that we don't end up ripping off old Reggae tunes) to develop our own sound and recording everything "first take" to keep the energy and vibe of that moment. Little to no overdubs (except for voicing the tracks). Lyrical content that has to do with what is going on in your life at that moment. A lot of these things, are what we interpret that might have been the way some of those great Reggae records were made. It allows us to work fast and be ourselves. We decided that one year was a long enough touring cycle for the s/t album. That is why we put the new one out a year later. We might do the same thing next year. The momentum keeps things interesting or us. We enjoy recording. 3. I see Korey is back on the drums…where’s Scott?Brian: Probably at Gordon Biersch. 4. I remember reading on your website that you guys were going to put some unreleased stuff on vinyl…when is that going to happen?Brian: We've had the worst time trying to get vinyl out. The s/t album will be out in vinyl in June in Europe (thru Copasetic). Reggae Hit L.A. will be released on vinyl, but I don't know if it will be ready in time for the June 5th release date. We want to start releasing our own 45's. Our bass player J, is going to start releasing some of his own material on his label Jandisc. As far as unreleased Aggro stuff, I'm not sure. Maybe we will be ready to focus on that by late Summer, when touring eases up for a little while. 5. You’ve guys seemed to have backed a lot of legends…from Derrick Morgan to Prince Buster to Phyllis Dillon…what have been some your most memorable moments with the legends you’ve backed? Brian: Hard to say. One thing that I have always enjoyed, are how happy those great singers/musicians get when we show our genuine interest in their contribution to Reggae music. We'll rattle off question after question to them. Picking their brains about everything. It was interesting hearing Prince Buster tell us that he wrote the movie "The Harder They Come" and that it was stolen from him! 6. Other than your upcoming album and your project with Tim Armstrong…what’s on the horizon for the Aggrolites?Brian: We'll be touring, which I can't wait for. Best part of being in a band, if you ask me. 7. Alright…that’s enough of the Aggrolites for now, let’s move onto other questions…like how did you get into Jamaican music in the first place?Brian: Since I was a kid, I always liked Reggae, but didn't know anything about it. I started buying Reggae albums when I was about 10 years old, but everything I would buy, sucked. So, I stopped buying Reggae. Around 1987, my friend turned me on to Let's Go Bowling. I loved it. Same year, Operation Ivy did an interview on Maximum RockNRoll Radio (a punk show I used to tape every week) and the played a rough mix of the song "Here We Go Again," which sealed the deal for me. I was hooked. I bought some Ska albums that had just came out and I started to discover a whole new world of music. The more I learned, the more I realized I hadn't even scratched the surface. I took the path that many people take. punk -->modern ska -->Skatalites -->Desmond Dekker -->everything else 8. You’re also a music producer…how’d you get into that? Brian: The band is full time now, but outside of that, I am a Recording Engineer. Not really a producer. I mean, I have certainly produced records, but you would hire me, to help your band get cool sounds and to capture the live vibe of the band. You would be more likely to hire someone like Chris Murray to produce your album. Chris is good at helping bands "punch up" their song writing and vocal performances. Which are things most bands need. Heh... if you hire me to produce your album, you had better have your playing/singing ready to go, because I HATE HATE HATE doing overdubs and will keep slight flaws if I like the vibe of the track (which drives some musicians crazy!). I mostly just sit behind the console, pushing buttons and turning knobs and telling stories about other times I have sat behind a console, pushing buttons and turning knobs. 9. Will there be a second After Hours album?Brian: Damn it, I hope so!!! I'm sure Brad has a gazillion songs written. We talked about it recently and he said he wanted to focus on the new See Spot album (which I'm also excited about!). My favorite part of doing After Hours stuff, is just hanging out with Brad. Super cool guy. Oh, the new After Hours album will be called, "And Another Thing..." which along with "The Trouble With Those Guys Is..." are of course things people say when they are drunk! Brad rules. 10. Any last comments? Brian: Keep spreadin' the Reggae!NOTE: Don't forget "Reggae Hits L.A." hits stores on June 5th, 2007 and Tim Armstrong's "A Poet's Life" hits stores May 22nd, 2007!

13. Ska History Month Part III: After Two Tone http://daoster.podOmatic.com download (audio/mpeg, 31.29Mb) Description: Ska bands were sprouting every where...thanks to two tone...some played ska in the same vein as the English bands...some did their own thing...some went back to the roots...and while there were ska bands around before the whole two tone hit, there's no denying that two tone helped push ska's popularity even further.

14. SKa History Part Two: The Two Tone Army http://daoster.podOmatic.com download (audio/mpeg, 18.61Mb) Description: I'm sure most of you already know the story of "Two Tone." Reggae and punk were the music the youth were listening too, and it wasn't long before bands were fusing these two genres together. Some bands decided to take it to another level, and fused ska and punk instead of reggae... There were ska bands before the "two tone era," and there were certainly ska bands in countries outside of England...but the WORLD was paying attention to England, and because of that, it was these English bands that helped bring ska back into the limelight and really spread it across the world. Not all of the bands featured today are on the "Two Tone" record label, but they were part of the Two Tone Army that helped bring this beat back. The Beat - Twist and Crawl Bad Manners - Lorraine The Specials - Do the Dog Madness - The Prince The Coventry Automatics - Little Bitch The Bodysnatchers - Do the Rocksteady Arthur Kay - Ska Wars The Selecter - On my Radio
15. Ska History Month Part One: Ska, Ska, Ska...Jamaican Ska! http://daoster.podOmatic.com download (audio/mpeg, 22.86Mb) Description: Here is my first of several contribution to "Ska History Month" started by Andrew, AKA CA_SKA... Part 1 is about the original ska, straight out the streets of Kingston...ska music was born in Jamaica in the late 1950s/early 1960s, combining the influences of American jazz, r&b, jump blues, and the traditional mento and calypso floating around the Caribbean at that time. Today's playlist is a sample of just some of the tunes coming out of Jamaica at that time... Tommy McCook - Freedom Sounds Justin Hinds & The Dominoes - Carry, Go, Bring, Come The Maytals - I'll Never Grow Old Bob Marley & The Wailers - One Love Byron Lee & The Dragonaires - Jamaican Ska Prince Buster & Slim Smith - The Prophet Laurel Aitken - Let My People Go Desmond Dekker - King of Ska Don Drummond - Ska Town Derrick Morgan - Starvation Derrick Harriot - Monkey Ska For more of some sweet Jamaican ska...check out CA_Ska's Episode! http://ca_ska.podomatic.com/

50. Episode 9: Laurel Aitken Tribute http://daoster.podOmatic.com download (audio/mpeg, 58.97Mb) Description: I once read an article that started out with something to this effect, "If history had been kind, Laurel Aitken's name would be as synonymous with Jamaican music as Bob Marley's name is..." I wish I could find that article again, but it's true you know... Laurel Aitken played a great role in the development of Jamaican music...he was one of Jamaica's first recorded artist, he was the first recorded artist on Chris Blackwell's Island Records (Island, which would later help make Bob Marley the most popular reggae artist in the world), and when he relocated to the UK, he played a big part in popularizing Jamaican music over there, and helped many musicians over there get their start. So this episode is dedicated to the memory of the Godfather of Ska, the High Priest of Reggae, the Boss Skinhead, Laurel Aitken, who left our world one year ago.

Email requests to daoster408@gmail.com (Subject: LAUREL AITKEN). Not an actual episode today, but I figured I'd play another summer time track, since we're smack in the middle of summer. It's not a ska/rocksteady/reggae track at ALL, but the Aquabats are always great for a fun listen. The Aquabats - Hot Summer Nights (Won't Last Forever)

55. World Cup Fever. http://daoster.podOmatic.com download (audio/mpeg, 5.88Mb) Description: Here in America, Soccer (Football for people other than Americans) isn't nearly as big as it is in other countries. That's NOT going to hold true for long, though. Consider that Little League Soccer has over 3.2 million kids. That's a million more kids than Little League Baseball, America's "Past Time," and a heck of a lot more than the other youth sports. The future is Soccer! But enough of that...I was going to do a "Soccer Playlist," but I don't nearly have enough songs to do one, so I'll just leave you guys with this...the Unofficial World Cup song of World Cup 2002 S.Korea/Japan.

57. Rest in Peace, Desmond Dekker. http://daoster.podOmatic.com download (audio/mpeg, 2.20Mb) Description: Yesterday, Desmond Dekker, age 64, died at his home in Surrey, England. This is a truly a great lost for fans of Jamaican music...Desmond Dekker was one of the reasons why I am who I am today, listening to what I listen to. It is doubtful if people like Bob Marley would have been as popular to the world if it weren't for Desmond Dekker, who was one of the first Jamaicans to have a ska song (heck, any form of Jamaican music at that) to become an international chart hitter (his song, "The Israelites" hit the charts in both the U.S. and the UK). I was lucky enough to have seen him play last year when he came to the U.S., and it was certainly one of the best shows I've ever been to. He just had so much energy, and enthusiasm, it's just so hard to believe that he could die so soon... I'm at home now, with no access to a microphone, or my collection of Desmond Dekker albums, but I at least have one Desmond Dekker song, perhaps the one he was most known for...this is in memory of Desmon Dekker.
