A Fine Way To Die (feat. Orlando Napier)

Thanks for listening. Please share, comment and/or repost if youre feelin it. Fort Knox Five has had a huge influence on my sound and The Melting Pot Radio Show for years. 

Ive been a huge fan for years and decided to open up the vaults. What came out was 55 cuts mixed, looped and blended into a mix that is just under 3 hours done in one take. This was made as a tribute while he was alive and has turned into to a memorial mix.

These are some of my favorite Originals, Remixes, Rarities, Mashups and more. It starts with the 1st FK5 track i had ever heard and grabbed me immediately the last song happens to be the latest Ive heard. Hopefully it will encourage you to search through their catalog and get to know some of their friends a bit better. Big Love to Andy and the Fort Knox Crew for that consistent sound quality throughout the years.

LYRICS

Awwwwwwww LETS GO! 

The wheels on the bus, keep turnin' TURNIN' 
Got my eyes on the prize, and the rubber keeps on burnin' BURNIN' 
The wheels on the bus, keep turnin' TURNIN' 
Too many km's til we hit it, so the rubber keeps on burnin' BURNIN

I can't not get down, with the funky stuff.
Its like im ridin on the bluenose, but im crackin' km's at the front of the bus.
Its the great white shark, of the Pacific North.
Ridin' on a wave of rock, bringin back the funk with a hurricane force.
The kitchen cuts up, charcuterie for 8. 
And the boys in the back are yellin' RICKI RICKI, Com'on pass that plate.
We're gettin close to arrival, but we ain't done just yet. Got a sound CHECK and a hotel CHECK, now the boys on the bus are ready to WRECK!

The wheels on the bus, keep turnin' TURNIN' 
Got my eyes on the prize, and the rubber keeps on burnin' BURNIN' 
The wheels on the bus, keep turnin' TURNIN' 
Too many km's til we hit it, so the rubber keeps on burnin' BURNIN

AWWWWWWW LETS GO

I can't not wake up, to the holy groooooove.
Cause 4 hours sleep is plenty, and we gunnin for the next with nothin to lose.
Its like im ridin' on Niiiiiiiiiiiiinaaaa, from the east to the west.
Rollin down south to Cali, for some ice cold funk at a music fest.
We put the rubber to the road, caffeinated to the fist.
Rollin through a new territory, for the big reward you got to take the risk.
We're gettin close to arrival, but we aint done just yet. Got a sound CHECK and a hotel CHECK, now the boys on the bus are ready to WRECK! 

The wheels on the bus, keep turnin' TURNIN' 
Got my eyes on the prize, and the rubber keeps on burnin' BURNIN' 
The wheels on the bus, keep turnin' TURNIN' 
Too many km's til we hit it, so the rubber keeps on burnin' BURNIN

The wheels on the bus ×4

We Play The Funk Feat. Bootsy Collins

Resurrectors are a 9 piece dub reggae band from Redfern, Sydney comprising an eclectic mix of local talent as well as musicians originally from Barbados, South Africa, England and New Zealand.

The band features some of Sydney’s finest musicians. Cameron Deyell plays in Bertie Blackman’s and Inge Lilestrom’s bands. Jon Pease tours nationally in Paul Mac’s band. Declan Kelly has released a solo album which was quite successful in its own right. Peter Firth is also a permanent member of Kingtide.

Healing is the band’s debut album and has already won them some talented fans:
The album features a bonus remix of the title track by Fat Freddy’s Drop producer and main man DJ Fitchie.

Resurrectors are an amazing live and will be touring extensively on the back of the album. Launches planned for Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane and Byron Bay. Already they have supported top dub acts including Fat Freddy’s Drop and the Black Seeds.

The album combines great songwriting and soulful performance with a social conscience and in doing so delivers a very powerful and compelling musical message. This is great music made by people living in Australia and singing about Australian subjects. The band tap into a rich and soulful tradition whilst presenting their sound in a current and contemporary style.
