Episode

Some artists leave a legacy that stretches far beyond a great single or a number 1 album.

Artist Focus is a new series hosted by the extended Melodic Distraction family that deep dives into the life and times of the musicians that have defined the sound of modern music. From the stone cold classics to the unearthed gems and forgotten B-sides, our community tribute an hour of music by a single artist that has had a notable impact on their life.

John Sprosen and Christine Woodbridge AKA Alpha & Omega, have been producing UK Dub for 34 years and are responsible for many sound system anthems across a back catalogue stretching 25 studio LPs + 9 dubplate albums. This Artist Focus attempts to dissect their illustrious history and pick out the stone cold classics and lesser known album tracks of this rather mystical duo.
