Hi guys,

TJ here.

Anyone got opinions on this. I'm a big music lover. My shout to kick things off is 'Sexual Healing' by Marvin Gaye. - Apt, obviously - Here, soul & reggae were beautifully fused. The track's production values were also at least 15 years ahead of it's time.

What's your shout??

If u can keep a sexual theme great but it's not essential!

Literally anything by enter shikari

I think they opened one of their shows with

“We’re enter shikari and we’ve been abusing music genres worthless boundaries since 2005”

There and to the left a bit

Punk/Reggae/Ska have been blended many times down the years by everyone from The Clash, the whole Two Tone movement, right through to the likes of Green Day and Rancid

In fact you can put the ska backbeat to pretty much everything- one of my favourites is this ska version of Oasis' Roll With It:

Or how about this ska version of Doris Day's Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps:

Rap and bluegrass. The combination that no one knew they wanted.

Wow there are so many cool fusion mix music

I love u2 and their Berlin albums achtung baby(no fusion), zooropa and pop these infused rock with hip hop and dance very cool

There are more like police mix reggae with rock an pop etc

I also love linkin park and jayz collaboration was cool mix

Enter shikari are the definition of genre splicing
