Original will always be original Markus, keep it going hope to meet up some time soon :) "keep it real -ONE LOVE " 

Be yourself builds nicely, love the dark tones, bit like cab Voltaire but more up to date and vital

Rootikal's David Hill and Ashley Beedle travel back in time to the post-ska, rocksteady sounds from the long hot summer of '67 with their mix of Cornell Campbell's 'There's A Fire.' 

Utilizing The Soothsayers' horns parts from the original album cut (on Cornell Campbell meets Soothsayers <i>Nothing Can Stop Us Now</i> on Strut), and of course the wonderful lead vocals, Rootikal deliver an authentic slice of vintage Jamaican lawn-dance music.

Think Studio One and Treasure Isle – glorious, bumping, soul-drenched tunes from the likes Slim Smith, Alton Ellis and Phyllis Dillon, and you won't be far off.

Scheduled for release in October on a Strut 45, which will also carry the version.

The full <i>Nothing Can Stop Us</i> album is available now:
