Solid Uk Dub riddim on the third production of eastern vibration record label. Norrisman came with a Nu roots / Dancehall touch that give to this one a special style for this 2010's riddim ! Master By Doogie Conscious

The influence of The Crown Prince of Reggae, as Bob Marley used to call him, still looms large over the genre 20 years after he passed. The latest reminder of his considerable talent comes from this gem Dennis made with Jux produced by Niney in 1977. "Blessed Are The Men (The Pill)" is unusually long for a dub track at over six minutes, but it sinks you into it throughout via the cuddly groove, sliding snares, hanging guitar twangs and buttery vocals. Flip over for Junior Delgado's "Cry, Cry", an impassioned anthem with plenty of blazing potential.

Nice modern Roots production by Fruits Records (Switzerland) alongside The Silvertones (Jam). Listen to the flip featuring Westfinga on the mix. Here comes the « Wonderland of Green Riddim » from Fruits Records’ studio band The 18th Parallel. This one is a super heavy rub a dub riddim played in the Roots Radics early 80’s traditional style. Double 7” single, the first record features the legendary Jamaican vocal trio from Studio One and Black Ark days, The Silvertones, singing the roots anthem « Wonderland of Green » and an extra killer dub mix by French wizard Westfinga on the B side. The second record features the big bad DJ Burro Banton with « Living In a Wonderland » and the instrumental version on the flip side. A must have double 7” single for all selecters!Music played by The 18th ParallelDrums: Antonin ChatelainBass: Stuf AddisPiano, moog, percussion: Mathias LiengmeRhythm guitar: Léo MarinTrumpet: Alexandre SchneiterTrombone: Anthony Dietrich BuclinRecorded at Bridge Studio, Geneva, by Mathias Liengme, and at Small World Studio, Kingston, by Perry Hendricks and Gaylard Bravo.Mixed at WF Studio, by Westfinga.Mastered at Precise Mastering, Hawick, by Sam John.Produced, composed and arranged by Antonin Chatelain, Léo Marin and Mathias Liengme.

Straight out of Maxfield Avenue's Channel One camp we present the heavyweight sounds of 'Blood Shot Eyes' by Roland Burrel released by way of the Montego Bay reissue imprint by Lake Brothers Records. Currently residing in Mo Bay, Roland Burrel was born in Pennants, Clarendon but raised in Trench Town and was musically coached and counselled by the late Toots Hibbert. During his growing artistic years, Roland sang with a group called The Shades, where he encountered Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry. Thereafter, Roland quickly rose to popular fame when he recorded the chartbuster 'Johnny Dollar,' a song that topped the Jamaican charts in Europe, USA and Japan. Realizing his strength as a songwriter, singer, musician, Roland was always conscious of the challenges that is ever present in the pursuit of excellence within a very competitive music industry. 'Blood Shot Eyes' is a perfect representation of where Roland Burrel was during the early part of the 80s.
