what happens on Donner Pass, stays on Donner Pass....

so last week some of the NXTZ support group were shredding the Donner Pass region of Lake Tahoe....since I was not there to witness this insanity, I have only heard the rumors of what went down.  And as they say what happens in ____  stays in ____. (insert your own words here).

I do have a few shots that actually document a few of our cronies in the snow, and they are telling me that this is in fact Donner Pass...hard to tell if you ask me...

Our boy Jordan Nield rockin a NXTZ balaclava in the Markovich-3 print...(lookin' tight hommie)


We also heard rumors of boss man Anthony Scaturro showing up to take a few runs with the boys....none of us believed it until the picture came in proving us all wrong....Anthony rockin' the NXTZ dual layer bandana in the dillusion black and white print...!  Yeah boys.


Looks like good snow and good times!

learn fi ride.....

OK....Since it's an official HUMP DAY here, and hump days are usually a mellow day for most, I figured I would drop in and give you all a sampling of some of the finest dancehall reggae.  If you happened to listen to dancehall in the late 80's and early 90's, then you will understand how this list was compiled.  Now, don't get me wrong here, I love ROCK, PUNK, Blues and all that but a part of me is very in-tune with reggae and dancehall reggae in particular.  I can blame this on a person who introduced me to reggae a long time ago..Mr. Jeff Brushie.  I was a young pup and I was spending the summer up at Mt. Hood in 1990 (or 91") can't really remember actually......and anyway, I met Jeff that summer (along with a bunch of others who are still some of the best and true friends one can have) and got to hang a bit.  He had this bitchin' VW vanagon with a serious sound system custom built into the entire interior.  I mean, this shit was over the top and back then, it was all about bass...and I mean bass...so what better type of music to pump out than Dancehall!!!  One of the very first dancehall sounds that I was introduced to then was Cutty Ranks....Stopper, and to this day, if I hear this it brings me back the that same camp ground just outside Govy under the roof top of huge pine trees....a moment that will never be taken away.. so with this said, here is my list of must listen to dancehall reggae...

Cutty Ranks- Stopper





Shabba Ranks- Wicked Ina Bed






Little Leny- Gun Ina Baggy




Halfpint- Crazy  Girl---





Super Cat- Learn Fi Ride---





Tenor Saw- Fever






Johnny Osbourne- No Ice Cream Sound---






Barrington Levy- Under Sixteen




Since this is a very small list of top hits, the list could go on forever really.  So this is a sampling of what I remember Dancehall Reggae being.  Enjoy and until next time...run da riddim!
