Roots Rock Rebel
Wednesday, January 21st, 2009
10pm-12am
CKUT, 90.3FM, Montreal!

Hello radio and internauts!
Hope you are all doing well out there. I’m pretty pumped about this week’s podcast of Roots Rock Rebel. There have been some awesome Canadian ska albums dropping all around lately, which is making me feel that there is a resurgence of high quality ska in this country. Some Canadian bands who have, or are about to release great albums:

Stepper, from Montreal: myspace.com/steppermusic
Rudeboy, from Ottawa: myspace.com/rudeboycanada
Rude City Riot, from Vancouver: myspace.com/rudecityriot

On this week’s show, we had Dusty, the lead singer of Rude City Riot come on the show for an interview. Their new EP is solid, so check ‘em out.

I was also happy to play some artsy punk music on the show, courtesy of one of my current favorite bands, Fucked Up, from Toronto. And I think you’ll all enjoy the stuff from Skindred and Propagandhi as well.

Until next week, Stay rude, stay rebel, RRR crew

Our pals from 74 SoundSystem in Jacksonville, Florida are back with another cool and deadly mix of rub-a-dub, reggae, and rocksteady! Straight from the record deck to your head it’s selectors MB1 and OK Fred.

We drop in and out of the mix with a conversation with the selectors and talk about what drives them musically and what things are like in Jacksonville.

This is their second podcast for Pressure Drop and they have agreed to do one for us quarterly. We’re very excited to have 74 SoundSystem jump on board with Pressure Drop.
