BigUpRadio.com and Bassmentality Sound team up for new dancehall reggae internet radio show

DJ BOOM on BigUpRadio


Bigup Radio, Inc., operators of the industry-leading BigUp Radio network of Reggae internet radio stations and leading web-site (www.bigupradio.com) for Reggae CDs, DVDs, vinyl, news and reviews, is pleased to announce a new weekly show in partnership with Bassmentality Sound. 


Beginning November 9th, BigUp listeners will be able to tune-in every Wednesday to “Boom Shots,” a two hours program showcasing the latest singles, riddims, remixes and more, mixed together and presented by DJ Boom.  The show will be broadcast 9am and 9pm EST to reach both US and European markets.


Bassmentality’s DJ Boom has established himself in the East-Coast Reggae and club scene as a top DJ for what’s hot in Dancehall music.  With an ear for mixing everything from Reggae torch-bearers like Sanchez and Beres Hammond to the hottest new tracks from artists like Sean Paul and Damian Marley, DJ Boom can be seen working the turn-tables at most Jah Works shows and is a well-known face at Baltimore’s Funk Box.


“We’re thrilled to bring our listeners into the world of DJ Boom,” commented BigUp Radio’s President Raoul Krakowski.  “Slamming dancehall is always a good thing, but when it’s mixed together by somebody with the ear and talent of DJ Boom, it takes things to a whole new level and we couldn’t be happier to be working together.”
