All Aboard The SKA Train this incredible precursor to reggae and rocksteady. You'll hear ska legends such as The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Stranger Cole, The Skatalites, and many others! We're sure you'll love it the minute you turn it on, so turn the sound up and tune in now!  

                                                                                                                                        The clue with chill hop is right there in the name, it's no more than a fusion of chill out music and hip hop.

The old cliche goes you have to know the past to understand the present so, if you're interested, let's take a brief look at hip hop's early days and the origins of chill out music to fully understand how chill hop came about and got to where it is today.
