This track washes up on the shores of the Virgin Islands, St. Croix isle all the way from the depths of the Caribbean ocean. Slow, meditative, hypnotic and intoxicating. Embodying the sound of STX with the signature VI accent on the kick drum and scratch. Moving gracefully like a Manta Ray, flying through the depths, this track transports you to another time and place, somewhere after midnight and just before the sunrise.

Infinite Quality –Midnite
       
Hailing from the Island of St Croix, Midnite is one of the most promising roots reggae bands of the millennium. Many answers to world troubles are cryptically placed in Midnite’s steadfast, strong lyrical content deleiverd by smooth and simple melodies. Lead singer Vaughn Benjamin’s angelic voice is an amalgamation of expressions in music. His soulful chanting and raspy voice mellows can into a sweet and sincere experience. The message is clearly Rastafarian and their devotion to spreading that message is inspirational. Vaughn delves deep into subjects that are relevant to these times by addressing distinct social problems of today, while decoding ancient philosophies from the past. To complete their enigmatic formula and keep a harmonious weave in their music, Midnite encompasses a heavy use of drum and bass patterns that are reminiscent of the 70’s classic roots period of Jamaican reggae. Midnite does not play by the rules, hence, they are setting a new standard in reggae music.

They have achieved an extensive catalog of albums, and a fan base that continues to grow and expand worldwide. Midnite has become notorious for their live performances, with sets that often exceed three hours. A vigorous and intense sound creates a vibe that penetrates straight to the heart. These epic musical communions have earned Midnite an enormous following throughout the roots reggae community. Midnite’s spiritually connected delivery on stage and in their recordings are exactly what fans respond to, in perilous and joyous times alike.

“Infinite Quality” features a powerful combination of Vaughn Benjamin’s searing lyrics, with the cutting edge productions of Lustre Kings’ producer, Digital Ancient (Andrew “Moon” Bain”). Responsible for coordinating the majority of the musical arrangement and production on this record, ‘Moon’ draws from a diverse musical background to create a sound unprecedented in Midnite’s vast catalogue. There is additional production from LK’s colleagues: I Grade Records, Zion High,  Diego ‘Fuego’ Campo (Noble Society) and Nick Fantastic (Hard Times Riddim). This wide-range of musical contribution combined with Vaughn’s potent lyrical style has lead to “Infinite Quality.” This impressive and unforgettable album is one of a kind in reggae music today. It incorporates seasoned reggae musicians such as Tony Ruption of Third World, Wadi Gad, Dean Pond and the legendary Basil ‘Benbo’ Creary. Equipped with live strings and horn lines all beautifully arranged throughout the album. With genre styles ranging from roots, dancehall to hip-hop, “Infinite Quality” is an album for the ages.
