A beautifully crafted book of Lee “Scratch” Perry's work. 🎨 Black Ark Studios in Kingston, Jamaica, is where Lee produced his music from 1973 on. He was a seminal pioneer of dub, an electronic subgenre of reggae that uses sampling, looping, remixing, reverb and echoes to create new songs as well as rework and appropriate pre-recorded songs and tracks. Black Ark Studios was one of the cradles of dub. It’s also where Lee “Scratch” Perry’s musical approach found an enduring visual counterpart in the form of continuously evolving mural paintings and drawings as well as shape-shifting assemblages of records, instruments, found objects, posters, newspaper and magazine clippings, and appropriated books.

Sometimes only a classic will do. Super Ape. Perry conjures atmosphere. The sound feels mined from the centre of the earth, built in the Black Ark, Perry’s extended instrument. Ahead of its time, or outside of it entirely? #LeeScratchPerry #soundsystemculture #rootsreggae #ontheturntable #reggaevinyl

#SundayMusicMeltDown #physicalmusicmedia @Moods Music had Robert Glasper everywhere. this "Keys to the City - Volumn 1" is 🔥. I got the black vinyl version. there is a blue vinyl edition available, but it doesn't have any more tracks than this one. this is a unique recording as it's a live recorded album...no tracks layered in a studio...everybody in one place, playing their parts. Great guest stars like the Black Radio series...on the jazz r&b with a side of hip hop. #MusicObsessive #IReadTheLinerNotes #RobertGlasper

Black History Fact #27: The Paradox 🎸 @theparadoxband Formed in 2024 in Atlanta, The Paradox — Eric Dangerfield, Christopher Bernard, Donald Bryant, and Percy “PC3” Crews — are proof that punk’s rebellious spirit is alive and evolving. They went viral after a raw backyard performance of “Do Me Like That” exploded on TikTok — turning a DIY moment into a national breakthrough. Then they made history. Their single “Get the Message” hit No. 1 on Billboard’s Alternative Airplay Chart — a major milestone in modern rock. But here’s what matters. Punk’s DNA has always been connected to Black music — from the raw energy of Little Richard and Chuck Berry to trailblazing bands like Bad Brains. The Paradox didn’t enter punk. They’re continuing a legacy Black artists helped build. Punk is resistance. Autonomy. Truth. And that’s always been Black. #BlackHistoryFacts #Clutchlife85 #TheParadox #BlackPunk

Four records from Akil ( @blvckbroadway )at Wilson’s on 18th Barbershop💈💈 ( @wilsonson18th ) Music that shaped a listener, a collector, and a DC cornerstone. 1. Earth Crisis – Steel Pulse Roots reggae with urgency and fire. Heavy basslines and militant consciousness. Music that speaks truth to power. 2. The Score – Fugees Hip hop soul at its peak. Lauryn, Wyclef, and Pras blending rap, reggae, and R&B into something timeless. 3. Songs in the Key of Life – Stevie Wonder A universe inside a record. Joy, struggle, love, and spirituality all living in the same grooves. 4. The First Minute of a New Day– Gil Scott-Heron & Brian Jackson Poetry, politics, and deep reflection. A soundtrack for understanding the times we live in. 💈From the barber chair to the record crate. The culture always connects. @recordcoverlovers @wilsonson18th #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #vinyllovers #nowspinning #recorddigging #cratedigging #vinyladdict #reggae #hiphopclassics #steviewonder #gilscottheron #soulmusic #rootsreggae #blackmusic #dcmusic #digginginthecrates
