Hello I'm Mark the host of The Mixtape Podcast and every week I ask my guest to make up an imaginary Mix tape or playlist and choose 6 tracks for it. 1. Your lead off track? The attention grabber? 2. A song you sing loud and proud, when you are on your own in the car/shower. 3. You Favourite Cover Version 4. A song you would have liked your 18 year old self to hear. 5. A song to let the listener know you are romantically interested. 6. A deep cut, B Side Or Album Track, you feel is under-appreciated

Get ready for a high-energy, horn-filled journey as The Mixtape welcomes Nicky Bomba, the driving force behind the Melbourne Ska Orchestra. We dive deep into their brand-new album The Ballad of Monte Loco, an epic release bursting with rhythm, storytelling, and that signature ska swagger.
Nicky shares insights on the band’s upcoming Australian tour, revealing how their live performances go far beyond music—creating powerful moments of community, joy, and connection with every crowd they meet. We also chat about the magic of vinyl records, the thrill of bringing ska to the masses, and the influences that shaped Nicky’s own musical DNA.
As always, Nicky crafts a personal Mixtape of tracks that have inspired his journey—from genre-defining classics to hidden gems that keep the groove alive.
If you love ska, reggae, live music culture, and the stories behind the songs, this episode is a must-listen!
