Prince Jammy at the controls

Here is some studio footage of Prime Jammy with his friends taken from the documentary "Deep Roots Music" and it is a brilliant clip. I particularly like the voice over by Mikey Dread. I think that might be Bunny Lee performing a zombie skank towards the end...

Slabsite

Massive thanks to slabs member Jonny for getting the website started! It's still early days but the Tabernacle foundations are now truly in place. Once it's all set up we hope to have a space where everyone involved in Slabs of the Tabernacle can put up news & events, host mixes and whatever else. Splendid.

Slabs of the Tabernacle 001 @ The Big Joint






















So the first Slabs of the Tabernacle is upon us. And to start things off, we have a full night of techno appreciation planned at the Big Joint.

As our first guest we are delighted to welcome The Third Man. Fresh off the release of his first E.P. ‘Before We Begin’ on ai records, he will be coming to Scotland to play his first live set north of the border. Expect to hear some heavy Detroit influenced sounds.

Joining in the night’s proceedings we have the Slabs residents D’Souza, Ingram and Hobbes to ensure that the first night goes off with a touch of gravitas.

And to make it easier for you we are running free mini buses departing from the Halt Bar, Woodlands Road from 10pm onwards.

For 5 pounds* we hope to entice one and all to make it along for a very special first night.

*Anyone wearing a tabernacle may enter for 3 pounds.
