Hosted by Mike Roots, “Reggae Explorations” on Wednesdays from 1:00p to 3:00 PM [EST], is WAPJ’s longest running show, having its start (as “Positive Vibrations”) at the station’s inception in March of 1997. On “Reggae Explorations” you’ll hear a mix of tracks from newer and lesser known artists, classic tunes, and deeper cuts than you would normally hear elsewhere. In addition, you’ll be treated to the “Motherland Track of the Week”, a “Lovers Rock Set” and even the occasional “surprise” selection. Mike Roots is a reggae artist and reviewer, and brings an inside perspective with interesting facts to enhance the listening experience. Tune in to “Reggae Explorations” for your weekly excursion into the world of strictly conscious, roots and culture, reggae music.
