Super Cat is one of our favourite MC's of all time, so when we were given the opportunity to rework his 1982 track ‘Dance Inna New York’ we jumped at the chance. The vocal was originally recorded at King Tubby’s studio and was licensed to us by Jah Thomas, founder of Midnight Rock records and writer/ producer for Greensleeves records. 

The track is about a love performing live music and aims to draw attention to the importance of grass roots music venues. London has lost 35% of its live music venues in the last 10 years, threatening the creative and cultural heart of the city. Visit http://musicvenuetrust.com/ for info of what you can do to help sustain grass roots venues across the country.

Taken from our album Freedom Fables. If I Know features the mighty K.O.G (Kweku of Ghana), a close friend of the band and long-time collaborator, this is now the 3rd track we've done together and definitely the biggest yet!

A futuristic Afrobeat / Highlife banger with a message of treating others as you want to be treated, alongside a heavy baritone solo from Joe Henwood and backing vocals from Ria Moran...

If I Know feat K.O.G

Nubiyan Twist are a Leeds born, London based musical collective. Orchestrated by guitarist/producer Tom Excell, they create a unique, infectious sound in an eclectic mix of styles, drawing on jazz, hip-hop, afrobeat, latin, soul, reggae and dance music.  

With a 10 piece live show featuring a 4 piece horn section, vocalists, electronics and an international (Brazil/UK) rhythm section, Nubiyan Twist create a powerful and unforgettable experience.  

Their debut album received strong support across the Jazz, World music and Hip-hop press, with support from sources as diverse as Huey Morgan, David Rodigan, Craig Charles, The Independent, Songlines, Afropunk and SBTV. This was followed up with Siren Song in May 2016.

The band have performed on huge stages across the world, being chosen by David Byrne to perform at Queen Elizabeth Hall for the south bank’s Meltdown festival, selling out London’s iconic Jazz Cafe, and rocking festival stages from Fusion to Wilderness, Boomtown to Edinburgh Jazz Festival, with their powerful sound and unique blend of styles.
