Dubhead picks
Dubhead knows so much about NZ reggae he should write a damn book. Oh, wait, he is. He's been DJing up and down the country since 1983, sharing bills with the Mad Professor, African Head Charge, Ben Harper, Rockers Hi-Fi, Dry & Heavy, Ty, Burning Spear, and Toots & The Maytals, to name but a few. From 2000 to 2004 he was Programme Director at 95bFM, where he now hosts The Rhythm Selection on Mondays from 9 to 11pm. He has won awards for his compilation CDs, produces original music as The Sound Foundation (Kog Transmissions), and is the reggae buyer for Beat Merchants record shop. He's one of NZ's high priests of the reggae music and these are his gig recommendations.
