Do312 - What to do in Chicago

Akasha Presents: Simmer Down Sunday
Akasha: the best of reggae grooves and rich vocal harmonies. Stylistically, Akasha sounds like they stepped out of a 1972 session at Studio One. Their reggae is powerfully authentic but also is accessible to the contemporary ear. Akasha's distinct approach is refreshing and earnest. They are courageously trailblazing a path for a new generation to receive the gifts of the Jamaican musical canon. The Akasha sound gives birth to an unmistakable variety of heavy, raw grooves reminiscent of The Skatalites, The Maytals, Desmond Dekker and The Wailers.

Special Guests Lord Dubious & DJ Rizzla
Somewhere near the turn of the century, a young man decided that his sonic mission should be one of dub. Over the ensuing years, Lord Dubious has held court over house, hiphop and reggae posses in Chicago, Beijing and on BBC Radio. Many have been converted to the bass-side and educated in the ways of version. With the new century firmly in stride, dubstep has emerged as yet another vessel for carrying the weight of the Lord's dubwise mission.
