VF Live: Charlie Dark's Have Box Will Travel #9

Protest and healing music with roots reggae gems and rarities.

In VF Live – our favourite collectors take you inside their homes and record shops, for intimate mixes and performances.

Charlie Dark returns for his weekly Wednesday afternoon show – Have Box Will Travel – which sees the Run Dem Crew founder, community leader, activist, poet, DJ and Attica Blues member selecting records that speak truth to power and to uplift you.

“Digging deep in the collection this week for another selection of protest and healing music. As a DJ I’ve grown up creating and curating spaces where people from different walks of life can come together in peace through common shared passion, spaces where differences can be discussed and similarities can be explored. This weeks selection strings together a number of gems and some serious rarities from my Roots Reggae collection that I draw upon when I need to mediate within the bass. Stay awesome people. Enjoy.”
