100% Ska is your weekly podcast dedicated to emulating your favorite old college radio show with your host DJ Ryan Midnight, dedicated to playing 100% vinyl. You’ll find all sub-genres of ska played here – from original 60s Jamaica styles, 2-Tone era, classic 3rd Wave, and modern bands influenced by the spectrum of the genre.
Additionally you’ll reviews of new releases, interviews, information on upcoming shows / concert tours and fly by the pants commentary. Minimal edits, even more minimal production value, and of course each episode recording is fueled by rum!
For interview opportunities contact the show or submit your music to be reviewed and heard on the podcast!
