Groovalizacion | Heavy Bass Reggae

Blending eastern and western sounds in a wonderfully palatable array of sounds, Groovalizacion Radio is one serious source for sound providing.  This time Groovalizacion selector Kiko De Gallo with the help of San Francisco’s Vinnie Esparza have compiled the ultimate strictly 45 reggae set.  You will hear a lot of heavy bass beats, dub productions, and lyrics inspired by the Rastafarian culture and religion. Special thanks to our lady Jazzy who always sends lovely musical treats our way.  Stream below and download this mix on Groovalizacion.
