'Shocks Of Mighty' - These guys spin their own music (Pop-A-Top recordings) along side classic West Indian music from the 1950s to present day. With a huge focus on the 60s period (ska, rocksteady and skinhead reggae). Along with occasional 70s roots, lovers rock, and dub, as well as 80s dancehall up to present day. With a sprinkling of calypso, mento and Jamaican R&B they have the ingredients for a good night out and a filled dance floor. Modern bands playing in a retro style are also on the play list. Basically the styles that used to get played (and still do in some cases) on the sound systems of yesteryear!
