I like to think I know my Ska, I was even there! But this collection has a brilliant mix of the obvious, and the not so obvious, plus specially selected versions of tracks I already have but in a different form. So now I have a huge crate (50 songs), and can satisfy general party needs, but Iām also armed with the not so obvious in order to go deep into the genre and satisfy even the pickiest Ska lover. Brilliant for cool background vibes as well, when I hit a crowd with the completely not obvious I always get people coming to talk to me.

Ska music can really transform a party! donāt overlook it. My Ska crate was not the best but thanks for this collection I now have all the SKA tracks I need. Thanks, Mastermix!
