Biography of Selecta G.

1. A small presentation of you?
I am called Jonathan Garcia, alias Selecta G, Birthdate October 1 and I live Sion?

2. How and when did you start to listen to reggae? Since when have you mixed?
I started to listen to reggae in 3rd year of CO. I was 15-16. Hands down, that would be Bob. In his time he was the all the time pal, and it is the buddy of the sister of this pal who started to make us discover reggae! The buddy in question is the founder of Zion' S Power! He also did not mix badly and had an enormous collection of records. The first artists that I listened to and who made me like reggae are for example Gladiators, Israel Vibration or Sinsemilia. I went in the evening, wanting to buy records, history to have the tune in entirety, the original. Then I knew the sounds systems, and it is Ca which I wanted to make. And it is it has been approximately two years that I started mixing.

3. Tell us about nights in which you took part in until now?
I started by badly mixing at birthdays, private festivals. It is here, that teaches you how to organize yourself a sound system, and all that goes with. If not I played Cellars of the Manor with Martigny, in Totem in Sion, in Canadian Pub also, Nendaz in Hacienda, Sierre and SilverClub de Payerne. I played in evenings with Sounds System as I also played with groups of reggae but also of rock'n'roll-metal. The goal is to make move people, then if one can make move different people each time it is still better.

4. What do you think of the reggae movement? Do you find that it moves people? And how is the public?
It does not move badly thanks to FAYAgency which organizes the majority of the evenings! But one has the impression that one always hears the same sounds? The problem it is the lack of venues! In Sion the only rooms where you can organize something, is Totem and the Dolmen. If not, it is already necessary to go in Sierre to Hacienda, or Martigny at the Cellars of the Manor? Sion is the capital but it is not where reggae is heard the most. Everywhere else in the large cities, there are much more evenings and especially more diversity? Here it is always a little similar? For example when Kya Bamba started to play of the dubplates, it was a true evolution because it was the first sound worth to make it, but now some have the impression that it does not evolve/move much any more! Compared to the public, one often sees the same ones accustomed, and on the other hand the number of young people in evenings increased much! The proof that people appreciate what one does.

5. Which is your repertory? Do you have a favorite style?
I play of all, but my favorite style for mixing and to make dance people is clearly the dancehall? You really cannot 'mix' reggae! If I go in evening, it is not inevitably to listen to reggae (reggae, you can listen to it at home with pals or with the radio?), but rather to dance, therefore inevitably it is the dancehall which passes best! I test each time giving pleasure to a max of world, I make varied selections.

6. Do you consider that you have an important message to make through the words of the music that you speak?
I do not say myself Rasta: I eat meat, I do not read the Bible every day, I do not wear dreadlocks and I did not change vestimentary style since I started to listen to reggae? I do not consider that I have a message to make, more than half of people who come in the evenings do not understand the jamaïcain and thus the majority of the words do not tell them much with the first listening? People who come in evening do not come inevitably for the lyrics but for the vibe, the low one, the rate/rhythm! And it is that the important one in evening, the dance! Here in Switzerland if there is a truth, a true Rasta message, it is Asher Selector! But other than him there is not much? and me I would not be taken with seriousness if I were played the messenger.

7. Which are the people who encouraged you, helped, inspired?
I will quote initially my pal Jacka Youth, with his sound, the Vine shoot Fu sound, and his group Kingston Palace. It is him which is at the base of my passion for the reggae! Then, I would say Asher Selector! It is thanks to him and to its emission Wareika Station that I discovered many good sounds! It is also with its shop (Raspect Shop in Geneva, which does not exist any more but on Internet today) than I was for the first time to buy discs? And finally FAYAgency, my producer, who organizes the evenings where I mix! Respect with him for its work!
