Radikal Guru - Babylon Sky feat. Cian Finn

Brain Damage meets Vibronics
"Empire soldiers"

Vibronics & Brain Damage teamed up and decided to come together around a concept, a narrative inspiration that will undoubtedly surprise: Anglo-Caribbean and Franco-African soldiers’ experience during the first world war. 
The academic historian, poet & songwriter, Madu Messenger, uses the product of years of study and research, to develop, within that very framework, a series of texts on some key topics such as travel, friendship, war and death. This project thus aims at offering a learning experience about this often little-known period of our history. 
It will draw troubling parallels with some more contemporary considerations on culture shocks, immigration, imperial powers and horrors of war that still affects all of us today. Following their reflection on this sensitive issue, the musicians of the project’s – all of many other origins, Anglo-French, Jamaican or Asian – move towards a cultural alignment, opposite to certain enslaving and communitarian models.


DO U REMEMBER ? w/ SIR JEAN


Ah Me seh One, World War One
Two, World War Two
Do U remeber those African soldiers
Who died for your Freedom

Why, why ô why
A me seh why, why ô why
You never mention those African soldiers
Who died for your Freedom

Cuz when U big up de fallen soldiers
U nah name dem at all
Me check out your walls and monuments
Me nah see dem at all
Memorial days a come and U nah call dem at all
Me check out your books of history
We nah see dem at all
It is a shame
U don't remember dem
Dem have given dem youth and dem lives
Just for your Freedom
I come to call out their names
And put a little light pon dem
Their grand sons come to call out their names
And put a little light pon dem
Their African grand sons come to call their names
And put a little light pon dem
Lord of mercy
And put a little light pon dem

CHORUS

Baionets, Fixed !
B company, Fire !
African soldiers on the wire
They were Senegalese, Marocans, or Algerians
They were young, beautiful
And full of strength
They were lions trodding on da battlefield
Now they're lying in complete oblivion
Do U ever, ever remember dem ?
Their grand sons come to call out their names
And put a little light pon dem
And put a little light pon dem

CHORUS

They were fighting with glory
Forgotten at da moment of victory
Ô U used dem as manpower
African warriors
Courageous soldiers
African fighters on da frontline
But inna ya books dem nah have a single line
So we come fe mek de glory shine
Me seh de medal of merit haffi shine

CHORUS

Lyrics:

Who knows Who knows Who knows
I just go where the trade wind blows
Sending Love to my Friends and Foes
And I suppose
I'm pleased to be chilling in the West Indies
Jah Provide All My wants and needs
I got the sunshine rivers and trees, Green Leaves.


When me see Jah me see a way
Drastically stray from Hypocrisy i say
Everyman to them owna philosophy
A Live the proper way, and them me read a chapter daily
Man deh Inner City hungry and no eat
And food deh down a country just a drop off a the tree them
You see say poverty no real then
Is what the reasoning revealing

When the rain pitter pat pon the roof
Herb just a steam pepper pon pon the stew
Life is a dream if you got gratitude 
So go tell the regime them can't stop weh we do now
Information you think on your own
Or else you're a slave to the things that you know
What do you know if you learn everyday?
So be careful of things way u say


Africa in a we soul
But a Jah in a we heart
It if of important say I&I gather
If we cannot show now a balance at we yard
How do We propose then to carry it abroad
Cannot Go to Ethiopia and you nuh have a plan
The building of a nation a hand a help a hand
Everyone one love a one
A man is just a man 
It shall be a coronation when we land

After Violinbwoy’s successful ‘Mono County’ twelver and Moonshine’s tight collaboration with Steppas Records, the imprint is ready to march on and announce its next 12-inch coloured vinyl release waiting in line.

The mighty Mungo’s Hi-Fi and Sekkleman have taken up Radikal Guru’s (RG) prolific ‘Subconscious’ long player. Each has picked a track of choice to lengthen and relive the Polish sound of 2013. With a remix of originals 
‘Stay Calm ft. YT’ and ‘Earthwalker, the imprint’s back catalogue is steadily shifting the sediment of dub(wise) music.  

Mungo’s Hi Fi’s take on RG’s ‘Stay Calm’ is a meditative jam that reaches out to the most high. The track is led by a low-toned bassline that immerses listeners in lo-fi tremor. It shakes chest plates, while YT’s blessed vocal work transcends the average dub plate. His energetic lines of wisdom align with Mungo’s futuristic drum work; all to forge a revolutionary sound that honours RG’s dub style. Guided by several melody leads, swinging flows and sample tweaks, this rework really sets a groove of its own.

The flip side of ‘MS024’ reaches out to a confident steppa-style production that will remind many of scene favourite Gorgon Sound. The Australian-based Sekkleman has an exciting go at reinterpreting ‘Earthwalker’ in his own profound way: a pounding kick, rowdy b-lines and an enthralling flute escort listeners through the path to Jah. The mental atmosphere that follows suit sets a tone that touches upon RG’s original intentions. It bundles the roots of this stepper, allowing it to effectively trigger a journey that eases down the brain; just close your eyes and skank towards peace and unity.

‘MS024’ embodies a returning theme, consisting of two remixes that add even more significance to the existence of Radikal Guru’s 2nd album. For us, taking part in this movement is all that matters. Thanks for your support!

Lyrics for:
'This is NOT a Marijuana Song' by Protoje, Produced by Niko Browne for LifeLine Music. 2012

And so it was said that the herb be provided for I&I 

They don't want you to know Marijuana
Ites up and be Free
Jah so Let it be

Herb smoke keep i sane, take my pain 
Stop migraine, so much i gain, so why blame?
I'm saying Jah might bring the right strain 
To my brain fi chop lightning like I-Wayne
Cause man deh ya pon the Lava Ground
And if u soft like a guava u can't come round
This part of Town, I tell unuh the thought alone
A could a Sparta it falter down
REVIVAL Hallelujah it start up now
Reprisal fi the luu Jah it watered down, Naa Pardon none

What deh in a  mi garden strong
This is NOT a Marijuana Song

This is not Marijuana music
Just a Message from the ones that use it
Don't abuse it cause a mind that's fertile
Brings forth something that's worthwhile 
Know your worth child
Cause no officer alive coulda look in a ma eyes 
And see what i prophesy 
My mind it forever occupies, thoughts of.........
Hold ma talk cause spies amongst us
If trouble did a trouble me, well that mi chalice woulda bubbly
drop in a one load then double it

What deh in a me garden strong
This is NOT a Marijuana Song

Listen up, the truth is to be told
Open your eyes there is beauty to behold
What is the new if u consider the old
Why gain the world and no consider your soul 
What is the cloud if u understand the lining
Who is the king if u consider the LIneage
You know its H.I.M so no continue deny him
Is it freestyle if i consider the Line 
Then configure the timing adjust to fit the rhyme scheme
With no trouble to my mind really?
Seal It

I say wah deh in a me garden strong
This is not a Marijuana Song

This Is Not A Marijuana Song

A short story based on the events of May 23rd, 2010, when the Jamaican government deployed its military into Tivoli Gardens in the capital city of Kingston.
Premier Nov 5th.

Ey, ey
Watch ya dread
Hey hey

Kingston, be wise
Kingston, free up your mind
Kingston, just be wise
Kingston, free up the I, yeah

When the city a go click-clack-blow, you bet
Government fingers and tic-tac-toes in it
And while they working on the X's and O's
I'm living I-N-I like I'm Mister Kamoze
No surprise when they sending foes to me
Opposite of when plain clothes approaching me
Follow they rules is what they propose to me
Selling they souls for what is owed, you see
Nothing is owed, nothing is promised 
Never know the government woulda run up inna them garrison
Without no sorry, without excuse
Soldier man inna them lorry, everybody get abused, and
Everybody have them views now
The media is owned so know where you get your news from
And the blood deh pon them shoes now
When them walking it trace
Look them hard in them face
And say

Kingston, be wise
Kingston, free up your mind
Kingston, just be wise, for me
Kingston, free up the violence

Now all the damage can't quantify
Roy Rayon couldn't sanctify 
Say a nuff a dem them send fi die
So the city a intensify
Say the ghetto them a gentrify
Well I, nobody nuh identify
Nuff bodies unidentified and just a lie deh
Then where the gun deh? Dead pon Saturday 
Buried Sunday like Solomon Grundy
Like a no Sons of Solomon them have down deh
Leonard Howell, Pinnacle and them land deh
Subdivision, them deal it underhand deh
So learn it 'cause them come back with dem plan deh
So tell me how far do you wanna go now, hey
'Cause them will ratta-tatta-tatta when u pow-pow-pow

Track 13 from Protoje's Sophomore album ' The 8 Year Affair' (2013)

Every morning I rise
Peace to my mind when I hail Ras Tafari
Knowing His eyes are on I
Jah be my guide, I reside with the Most High
Even inna drought I nuh cry
These are the times when I hail Ras Tafari
Knowing that Jah will provide for I

I said He giveth and He taketh away
Understanding nothing is belonging to me
Earth will provide you with the necessity
Me say simplicity is what we use in these days
And Ras Tafari prophesied there would be wars
Many possessions would be lost
What you live is what you leave with, so
Hold it close, it’s the only thing that's yours

[CHORUS]

Because we know Jah we cannot walk away
Heart of the Lion is telling us not to stay far
‘Cause when it all passes away
To abide in Your presence is the only thing I pray for
‘Cause it is beautiful to know
Storms all around and You safely guide the way home
Yes, You lightening my load
Keep me right here on the straight road

[CHORUS]


Haile love I, you never forget
Haile bless I, don’t you ever forget
Haile love I, don't you ever forget
Haile bless I, don’t you ever forget

[CHORUS]

Haile is the power and the knowledge and the key
One, two, three, the Holy Trinity, yeah


Hail Ras Tafari

Chronixx feat. Sizzla, Kabaka Pyramid & Protoje - Selassie Souljahz [2013]

Member of Voltage-HiFi soundsystem and lover of roots, reggae and dub!

BOOKINGS: radikalgurubooking@gmail.com

One of the brightest lights of the roots-influenced underground community for the past half-decade, Poland born Mateusz Miller has pioneered a compelling and unique fusion of sounds that encompass dub, reggae and dubstep under his Radikal Guru moniker. Inspired by an appreciation of soundsystem culture, his music has become synonymous with suffocating degrees of dread bassweight, vibrant and eclectic palettes of tone, and varying energy levels that cater for both dancefloor focussed ruckus and for more meditative listening. Heavily influenced by the likes of King Tubby and Scientist, Matt first gained worldwide acclaim and recognition through a string of killer vinyl releases on leading reggae/dubstep imprint Dubbed Out, before forming a creative partnership with fellow label Moonshine Recordings where he has gone on to cement his reputation as one of the strongest proponents of the scene. His Moonshine discography boasts highlights that include his debut LP ‘The Rootstepa’ and the mighty ‘Dread Commandments’ 12”, and keep an eye out for some seriously exciting developments in the pipeline including the release of his second album. Not only a talented producer, Matt is also a fine selector, conveying his passion for music through DJ sets that pay homage to the sound and culture’s rich history as much as they showcase the freshest cuts of sonic innovation from himself and his contemporaries. He has hit spots all around the world to assault soundsystems with bass-fuelled beats and positive vibes. Catch Matt bringing heat to a series of festivals this summer, and with a landmark tour yet to be announced, there is plenty to look forward to on the horizon.
