forwards and backwards through bits of a [mostly] electronic music timeline. reverence for BCR. records i’ve played forever and new records i’ve just found. boil it down. one z in drizle.
Formed initially in 1962 by Winston Riley and a group of youth club friends, The Techniques were first recorded by club owner and future prime minister Edward Seaga. As ska slowed to rocksteady and morphed to reggae, and Jamaican music booned in popularity across the world towards the 1970s, Riley remained the one permanent member of The Techniques, honing his production craft and creating hits that would break the US and UK charts. He created music tirelessly, well into the 21st Century until his passing in 2012. Enjoy an hour of some of Jamaica's best music from a reggae polymath on this In Focus.

Ground Floor were from New England and it was a big deal for them to get with a New York indie label & drop a smash 12″. When the video appeared on BET's "Rap City" everyone bugged out. Lord Finesse was also on Bandoola Records so things were really looking up. The song was everywhere and you heard it in cars all over New England. About 3 months later there was no follow up and 6 months later the promised Lord Finesse EP didn't drop either. Soon the Bandoola phone number wasn't even working anymore but "One, Two" lives on.
