Roots Archives Forum

It would be nice to see more dancehall selections... maybe till 1989.

I wouldn't hold your breath for that one Jaydubbinn.

Stikkly 1970 - 1985 see the about page:

http://www.roots-archives.com/about/

While I like a lot of later stuff, I think it's best this site sticks to its mission and doesn't stray out of that 70-85 era. It wouldn't be ROOTS archives if it did.

But perhaps we need to start a sister site called dancehall archives, or digital reggae archives or something...

I Belive the Idea of a sister site dedicted to the dancehall era is great.

The mods should look into this and take it seriously.

The site could be dediced to the FIRST WAVE DANCEHALL/RUB-A-DUB(1978-1984) DIGITAL DANCEHAL (1985-1987)and RAGGAMUFFIN DANCEHALL (1987-1995)

JAH LOVE

AVATARS size can be limited....
but as I said it isn't a vital ting

My other point "FIND POSTS" is very useful though

As for Video ...just link them to YOUTUBE

If you want to check out an audio section
check http://www.ozreggae.com
CLICK ON FORUMS then scroll down the page and find the audio sections
DANCEHALL CORNER
FOUNDATION AREA
also on the HOME PAGE check out
FIREHOUSE SOUND in the SOUND SYSTEMS / SELECTORS section for their audio

There are some music which are legally free to download and i feel it would again be legal to share them.If there could be some place for on the site to dump music one would want to share.

Loveful hieghts,

Selecta Bing. There's a search engine for the Forum section - find it at the top of the Forum pages. I use it to find old posts or answers to questions - it works well.

Would love that they start with 7"...

Yes Litelet, I agree, but that is a BIG thing to do.

But I would love to see 12inch 45s given the same treatment as the LPs here.

What would you people think about having to register before posting on this forum ?
I know Seb isn't really into this and I have had some discussions about this with him. Still, I think it's not a too bad thing having to register.

Registered users only means more control over problematical posting. So I agree, or maybe limit unregistered users to a small number of posts before they have to register, like 5 or 10 posts.
