Too early x

We are very sad to hear that the much-loved broadcaster Andy Kershaw has passed away at the age of 66.

Andy was a familiar voice on BBC Radio 3 for over 20 years, known for his eclectic tastes and his championing of music from across the world. During his time on Radio 3, in his words, Andy “continued to ignore categories and mix it all up” on Music Planet: a programme that continues to this day.

Thank you, Andy, for everything you contributed to BBC Radio 3.

Rest in peace

Rest in peace

We at Trojan Records are deeply saddened by the passing of Lowell “Sly” Dunbar, one half of the legendary Sly & Robbie and one of the most influential drummers in reggae history.

From his early work with the Revolutionaries and Aggrovators to his time backing Peter Tosh in Word, Sound and Power, Sly’s rhythms helped shape modern Jamaican music. As part of the “Riddim Twins”, Sly & Robbie formed Taxi Records, producing and performing on countless international hits and collaborating with artists including Grace Jones, Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger, Herbie Hancock, Cyndi Lauper and many more.

A master of feel, innovation and groove, Sly Dunbar’s influence reaches far beyond reggae. His legacy lives on in the music he created and the generations he inspired.

Thank you for all the amazing rhythms, Sly. Rest in Peace 🖤🥁
