Oxman Mix For NiceUp
from NiceUp Crew Hosted by NiceUp Crew
Oxman is an institution in the London reggae scene. Perhaps most well-known internationally for his work with the renowned Dub Vendor and Soul Jazz crews, Oxman has a long and deep history, from running his own sound, producing, record collecting, to hosting dances. Whether selecting or on the mic, he is one of the best in the game covering the full spectrum of all things reggae. It all started at his mother’s South London blues parties, where young Oxman used to hijack the decks, while sound systems such as Soferno B and Untouchables were taking a break. By 1981 it was time for him to have his own sound. He built Dill-Ox International, specialising in reggae but also encompassing soul, jazz, hip hop and RnB. He has provided rare tracks from his extensive collection for Soul Jazz and Pressure Sounds compilations, to name a few. Oxman has worked on stations Kiss, Lightning and Vibes FM. He has played throughout the UK and Europe and toured Australia with Soul Jazz Sound System who he continues to select and MC for on a regular basis. Check him every Wednesday, 8-10pm (UK) running the Soho Skank show on Soho Radio. Oxman says 'Introducing people to untapped gems is the one!'
