The Rarebit

Singer and producer Brazen Rule comes from the city Lira in northern Uganda. He won the Pearl of Africa Music Awards for Northern Artist of the Year, was given 4 times the title as best producer at the Lango Entertainment Awards and was also chosen best northern Reggae artist of the year. He made himself a name as one of the most humble artists in the north because his lyrics are centered about the everyday people that hustle from day to day to earn a living, the market women, the single mothers or the orphans that were raised after the war in the north. 

Ancient Astronauts connected with Brazen Rule in 2017 when DOGU was part of the Rhythm Is Life Tour 2017 in northern Uganda and Brazen was one of the attendees of the workshop in Lira. For the final compilation of this tour he recorded the lyrics for “Bad Muje” to an older beat by Ancient Astronauts and Poldoore. And that version of “Bad Muje” became a big hit in northern Uganda and now people call Brazen Rule “Bad Muje” since that day. It is a saying for an older respected person, one with experience and skills.

But that original version of “Bad Muje” was never officially released. It only came out on the free download compilation of the Rhythm Is Life Tour 2017 that is available on Bandcamp. So for the upcoming label compilation “20 years Fantastic Freeriding” Kabanjak and DOGU of Ancient Astronauts decided to produce a new riddim for the song and give it a proper official release. And here it is!

Shiverman  INVŌKER Remix

Fat Freddy's Drop’s pirate soul train, resolutely independent, worldwide.

Formed in 1999 in Wellington, New Zealand our sound draws inspiration from almost every part of the black music lexicon. Soul drenched vocals and jazz harmonies collide with tape delays and echo chambers, underpinned by a rhythm section as comfortable laying down a throbbing, techy soundscape as they are a swampy blues stomp.
