LITTLE HARRY 
Little Harry was born in the parish of Saint Thomas, Jamaica. He attended the Bell Rock Prep School, then to the Hampton Court Primary School, the Port Morant All Age School and Saint Thomas Technical High School. He started deejaying when he was ten years old, that is in 1979. The first Sound System he featured on was Black Lion, which played at the Land Top in Port Morant, he was at this time 12-13 years old. The owner of the sound, Gogoil, was a friend of Little Harry's.
When Little Harry went to a pushcart derby and competition in Port Morant Square at a place called Cotton Tree Toby, the owner of Aquarius sound that played that evening, let him take the microphone. It was a success. The following Sunday Little Harry had the opportunity to deejay at an Aces Disco dance that was at a place called Prospect down by the Blue Macho Beach. The same night Little Harry got a contract too deejay on the sound system.
In 1981 Little Harry entered the J.C.D.J National D.J. competition at the legendary Skateland. Even though Yellowman was the winner of the competition Little Harry was very well received. Little Harry and Yellowman became friends and were soon deejaying on the same dances. The record »Live at the Aces; Feeding in the Dance Hall« (1982) which featured Yellowman, Fathead, Jah Rubal and Little Harry was the first time Little Harrys voice was heard on record.
The following year, 1983, Little Harry started deejay for Junjo's legendary sound Volcano. He also recorded an album for Junjo a clash album between himself and fellow child deejay Billy Boyo. It was released by Greensleeves records as most of Junjo's album were at the time. Little Harry being the winner of the clash.
In 1984 Little Harry moved once again, this time to King Jammy for whom he recorded several songs. In 1986 he started deejaying for King Sturmars Hifi. And the year after he recorded one of his biggest hits, Anorexal Body, for Skengdon.

We No Fear / LITTLE HARRY  - New release Palenque Rockers Vol 1 / REGGAE / JAMAICA

London-based duo Village Cuts explore Afro/Latin music through the lens of UK club culture,  in both their productions and lively events across the city.

In their first collaboration with Palenque Records, the duo have shaken up some much-loved modern classics from the celebrated Afro-Colombian group, Son Palenque, with the sound of hand claps, maracas, tambores and chants lending themselves suitably to club interpretations. Village Cuts also enlisted the help of Kenyan collaborator Shama, who recorded new sebene-style guitar to complete the release. 

The EP-opening remix of Damelo Acá is a thunderous peak-time banger driven by the classic Son Palenque call-and-response vocals and rolling percussion, building towards an eruption of soukous joy when the new lead guitar takes centre stage. 

Their version of Zamba is a dynamic and up-tempo flip, with rolling sub-bass and choppy beats. The original guitars direct the rhythm, before joyous melodies and infectious ‘Zamba’ chants command energy from the dancefloor. 

Last but not least is a club-warming rendition of Akalaka, featuring the heartfelt saxophone of Colombia’s legendary Michi Sarmiento, emitting euphoric bliss. The track is driven by its club thump and catchy vocals, plus psychedelic sound design to lift and transcend.

These 3 tracks breathe new life into the revolutionary and entrancing grooves of Son Palenque, for the next generation of party-goers. Primed for summer time sound-systems and sure to make you move!
