November 5, 2014 to November 5, 2019 5 Years Streaming Top Shelf Reggae 24/7 Loud & Proud from San Diego to the World! A Commentary by Mitch Santell on the Launch of Big Reggae Mix There can be no more significant satisfaction than bringing two creative minds together who love Reggae. Watching Scott and Errol interact at live events is an event in itself. Not only do Scott & Errol have a deep, profound passion for the reggae genre, but they are also both almost obsessive about it, and this is an excellent thing for YOU, our listener. As many of you now know, Big Reggae Mix happily celebrated our 5th year of Streaming Top Shelf Reggae 24/7 on November 5, 2019, at our Studio in San Diego to the Global Community of Reggae Enthusiasts. Now entering our 6th year on the air, I'll be sharing you some of the fantastic people stories and locations that have come across our path since our launch in 2014. From my perspective, having started as a talk radio host in 1994 then moving on to producing in 1995 and then independent Syndicating in 1996, it has been a wild journey. The world of streaming music that we live in now did not exist when I started in the radio business. Not only has the online world of music changed since the initial introduction of the iPod and iTunes, but streaming had also changed over and over again since 2014 when we first went on air. First, remember, you can always hear our stream off of our home page. All you have to do is press on the "listen button," a new window will open, you press the play button one more time, and you will hear us commercial-free. Second, if you would prefer to download an application down to play on your Smartphone (iPhone, Android, and so on), we might suggest that your first stop be radio.net.

Bahia Festival is turning out to be an amazing day. Scott T. Brown, our program director and the Co-founder of Big Reggae Mix sent me the picture above as he was grooving the vibes in San Diego. E.N. Young born Ian Allan Young, is a roots musician born and raised on the USA/Mexico border in San Diego, California. E.N started playing piano at age 6, which was the beginning of his musical life. His parents bought him a white upright Samick Piano that he still records and plays on today. At age 12, he broke his left arm and the doctor recommended some physical activity to help recover. In response, his father bought him a drum set to help with his recovery. Not only did it help physically but E.N found a passion for percussion and drums. With his new drumming talent, he reinvented himself on the piano and his musical world was revealed. Reggae music has always been a part of E.N Young's life. Growing up with his brothers, Manuel and Mike'Chunky Roots' Marquez, reggae was around and the influence was strong. Daily, E.N and his brothers would search for the next reggae tune that caught their ears and lose themselves within the reggae vibes. Now, E.N is more involved in the reggae scene than ever imagined. Not only has he established a name for himself as an individual artist but also as a writer and producer. E.N started performing when he was 15 years old and in 2002 he became a member of the band Stranger. As a band they put out four studio albums and toured on the West coast, including Guam and Hawaii; which led them to win the San Diego Music Award in 2009. In 2005, E.N Young met Bonita/Chula Vista locals, Roots Covenant and backed 30+ Jamaican artists. In 2010 E.N began pushing his solo career by releasing his first debut album ‘Luck & Chance No More’ under his new label, Roots Musician Records, May 1 2010. He became the first artist under RMR and began to tour as a solo artist. Along his musical path, he has played onstage with many influential reggae artists including Quino Big Mountain, Devastators, Johnny Clarke, Triston Palma, Sammy Dread, Heptones, Everton Blender, Jah Batta, Michael Palma, Sister Nancy, Edi Fitzroy, Anuhea, Tamarama, Stranger, Carlton Livingston, Don Carlos, Slightly Stoopid, the Abyssinians, Clear Conscience, Eek A Mouse, English Man, Gonzo, Tribal Seeds, Milton Henry and more.

When I saw this I had to share it by Mitch Santell Bob Marley's legacy continues on a daily, weekly and yearly basis through his children and grandchildren. Jamaican singer Ziggy Marley, the son of late reggae icon Bob Marley, reaffirmed his support for Israel at a recent event in Los Angeles.
