H8000 - West Flanders (Andre)

Between 1989 and 1999, the Belgian hardcore scene was a fervent powerhouse of hardcore punk. In West Flanders, this was especially prominent with the emergence of H8000, named after the region's postal code. The "H" was added later. During this time, a subgenre of hardcore emerged that would go on to influence many bands after 1999. Here is a small taste of that era.

CONGRESS - Satanic Verses (Good Life)

REGRESSION - As We Speak (Good Life)

Ska Outro

Jackie Mittoo was just awarded the Polaris Heritage Award for the album “Macka Fat”. Mittoo was one of the first musical director’s for Studio One working with the Skatallites. This album was considered a foundational reggae album and an important album for the Jamaica to Toronto musical pipeline. Jackie Mittoo moved to Toronto in 1969 and lived here the rest of his life. His haunting organ playing would go on to inspire the Specials “Ghost Town” and here is a song that sounds a little like that called “Lazy Bones”.

Soulside interview

I really like Soulside.I think part of what I like about them is I feel like I grew up with them. As I was getting into the hardcore scene they too were emerging from a well known punk scene in DC. At their first show in Toronto they wound up staying at my parents place in North York even though they don’t remember it. But my dad did. They gave him a Soulside shirt which he always wore and he hated punk so that was the irony for me. The band were unique in the punk scene and were part of a generation of punks that experimented with sound in many ways. When I heard they were back together and recording I was excited and nervous. When I found out they were coming to town I reached out to the singer Bobby Sullivan to see if we could do an interview. He remembered me which made me feel good and was quick to accept. Before we get into that conversation this is a track called “Survival off the band’s latest release - A Brief Moment in the Sun.

SOULSIDE - Survival (Dischord)
