‘Rise Up’ - The Riz Records Story
Various Artists

15 Track CD, Download and Ltd Vinyl Part 1 and Part 2 
   
  For Reggae Archive Records latest lovingly compiled and annotated testament to the nascent UK roots/dub scene of the 1990s, we've gone straight for one of the best with “Rise Up – The Riz Records Story”. With an output that spanned most of the decade and a catalogue that stretched beyond the usual handful of singles to include some very strong albums, Riz was a powerhouse for the revival of UK reggae and  the growth in it's popularity that continues to this day.
     After much difficulty in deciding which of the many first rate tracks we'd have to leave off due to time constraints, we've achieved a fantastic selection of 15 of the best the label has to offer. If that wasn't enough, six of the tracks feature exclusive discomixes from Rootikal's David Hill whilst tracks from Willie Williams and Earl 16 are previously unreleased. How and why these excellent tracks slipped through the net is now forgotten; it definitely wasn't down to lack of quality.
     One of the labels strengths was the ability to attract and record leading Jamaican artists as well as those from the UK. In addition to Willie Williams and Earl 16, we've included tracks from Johhny Osbourne,   Admiral Tibet, Danny Red, Bob Skeng, Orville Smith, Mikey Mystic, Indica All Stars and of course the ever present Riz All Stars, the sort of line-up that most of the UK's independent reggae labels could only have dreamed of recording. All the tracks were taken from the original master tapes with everyone involved in the project aiming to achieve the best possible sound. We think we've achieved it and this really is a treat for those who value sound quality; these tracks have never sounded better.
      In addition to the music, the package also contains extensive sleeve notes recounting the label's story with contributions from key players Nick Manasseh and Gil Cang as well as archive images, with the vinyl version coming in hand screen printed sleeves. Whether a long time fan looking to fill in some gaps or upgrade worn out singles or just a reggae fan looking for a great compilation with nothing but strong tracks you may not be familiar with, then this album is for you.
      “Rise Up – The Riz Records Story” is released by Reggae Archive Records on 27th January 2013 on CD, digital download and as an extremely limited vinyl pressing, spread across two separate LPs, complete with screen printed sleeves and sleeve note insert. Between them the two records contain all 15 tracks, available from all good retailers and direct from Reggae Archive Records.

Vybz Kartel - Summer Time (Riddim by Adde Instrumentals)

DJ Fire Man at Lama Lama, Bakau(The Gambia)

We at Roots Factory Records are proud to announce their second release with an inter continental lineup of amazing artists.
 
"Movement Riddim" was composed in the suburbs of Fortaleza in the North of Brazil by Dub Movement, one of the leading producers on the bubbling Brazilian scene and definitely one to watch for future releases!
https://soundcloud.com/dubmovement
 
The first cut features Majestyk Sound Machine member Obajah, a hugely underrated singjay hailing from France and busting on the UK scene with a killer called “Higha Meditation”. The flow is impeccable and the lyrics are positively conscious. Expect to hear plenty more of him in the near future…
https://soundcloud.com/obajahofficial
 
Next up is a call for “More Unity” by legendary cultural artist Afrikan Simba hailing from Nigeria. A veteran on the London scene as well as internationally, he has worked with top sound systems like Jah Shaka, Aba Shanti, Blackboard Jungle and Channel One, released music on labels like Reality Shock, Jah Warrior, Dub Judah and even set up his own label called Ayamba based in Jamaica. A serious effort by a serious lyricist and performer.

We love horns cuts at Roots Factory, and it's no surprise that the flip side starts with “Horns Movement” by Serbian trombone player extraordinaire Hornsman Coyote, one of the leading artists in the Balkans and a seasoned and sought after performer both on stage and in the studio. On top of touring with Eyesburn, his band of 20 years, he’s also toured the world and recorded with artists that include Max Romeo, Iration Steppas, Jah Works, Jerry Lyons and more recently featured on Lee Scratch Perry’s new album “Back on the controls”.

Brigadier JC shows off his mixing skills on “Movement Dub”, a pressure-filled take on the original riddim, using a mix of digital and analog effects from the Roots Factory studio in London. He’s also released music on labels such as Jarring Effects and Reality Shock, and is seen regularly around Europe treating the crowds to his large bank of self produced exclusive dubplates.

Currently working on their first album, soon to be released!
