In the ’50s, it used to be bluebeat, prior to reggae.

West Indian youngsters, marooned in this cultural maelstrom and kicking their heels in inner-city estates, took refuge in their musical roots: ska, bluebeat and rocksteady.

My name is Alex and the name of my blog is Bluebeat Scene.

There are so many great songs at the moment, but one getting regular play on the Bluebeat Scene decks is Soulfood Rock by the Magic Touch, a great ska band from Berlin.

I have been lucky enough to discover many great blogs since starting Bluebeat Scene, but one of my favourites has to be A Beat City Diary.
