Well, I wanted to be out of town this weekend, but I stayed for the Ska Show… probably for the best, there’s less hoosiers in the studio.  If you were listening on Saturday, you can see what you heard below.  If you missed it, though, be sure to surf over to KDHX.org to stream the archive.

I started last night’s show with the debut of the new Ska’s The Limit Theme Song, by Matt Wixson.  Wixson also makes music under the name Babylon Party Machine, and I offer up two of his mash-ups right off the bat.  Then, after a quick overview of Symarip we got into some Cops and Robbers themed ska and reggae.  Then I finished you off, with a whole lotta aggressive dub.  And, once again, I completely forgot to mention this site on the air.  What is wrong with me?

If the playlist looks good to you, head on over to STL’s page on KDHX.org and stream it to your brain.
