King Toby at the controls...

Lock in for two hours of dubwise selections as King Toby (aka Snoodman Deejay) launches a new dub reggae show.

This month, King Toby is joined by Martin 'Skyjuice' Blomqvist, whose mix consists solely of B Side versions on 7inch format - soundsystem style!

Skyjuice is a record collector & selector from Stockholm, Sweden who has been collecting records, mainly reggae, since the mid 80s. In 2021 he released a '100 Days Of Dub' a book that chronicled his journey through some of his vast collection of dub LPs. The book has achieved cult status amongst dub & reggae fans, and is a must have for those looking to expand their own collections. As Skyjuice himself says "It was an interesting project that took me back to when I first got these records and why I value them so much. People seem to have enjoyed this book as I wrote it in a quite straight forward and almost conversational style, the way I love to read about music myself. It can work as a guide for those not so familiar with the music as well as an enjoyable read for the refined collector who already has all these gems."

Skyjuice is currently putting together a new project focusing on roots reggae in the 12 inch disco format, due to come out sometime later this year so stay tuned for that!
