Simmer Down: Oh, Ain't it Irie
November 02, 2009 09:18 PM PST
The other day a certain someone got a little vigorous whilst making clean the household glassware. A weak section of a glass (formerly containing strawberry kiwi juice that had been on sale from Shopper’s Drug Mart) gave way; the result was a notable laceration. As when injured by anything physically or emotionally, the immediate reaction involves fleeing to the turntables and clinging to them like a frightened baby monkey. The only comfort being warm milk direct from the maternal bosom. Instead of getting bandaged up, it dawned. Why not make a ska n’ reggae mix while frolicking about in your own life-syrup? This, of course, was a terrible idea and the mix wasn't strung together until the wound was adequately sterilized and bound. Fellow music junkie, Gino, smacked the Steel Pulse track down in a mad Facebook posting.... from there the iTunes store got .99 cents and the Simmer Down reggae force became one troop the richer. Add to that a Barrington Levy binge and the Laurel Aitken anthology appearing on the doorstep…. Well, it wasn’t long before all the tracks were gathered around begging to be mixed. We will most likely delve back into that department this Friday at Augusta House and definitely at Harmony Lounge, a new haunt, where a gritty night is in it’s embryonic stages.
