Description: Sugarshack EP of the week: Iya Terra Live at Sugarshack Sessions

Atlanta based producer Matt Mansfield aka Piper Street Sound has created a collaborative EP of instrumental Reggae music with legendary Reggae guitarist Andy Bassford (Toots and the Maytals, Dennis Brown, Horace Andy, Culture, Roots Radics). 'Black Eyed Peace' follows 2020’s 'Small Plate / Rid Them EP' but puts a focus on guitar melodies masterfully executed by Maestro Bassford. The songs still bear Piper Street’s customary horn heavy and dub infused style but move into some new territory; elements of Rocksteady abound, major keys now bounce along side their minor key brethren, Yaya Brown’s akete drumming prods and propels the rhythms carved by the ultra tight drumming of Brian Daggett and the bass of Mansfield, Chris Case’s keyboard mastery blazes along side the horns of Will Scruggs, Jonathan Lloyd and Dashill Smith. 

'Black Eyed Peace' is a collaborative affair pieced together gradually over the course of the pandemic, the horn sessions miraculously took place the week before everything shut down, and all other elements were recorded in home studios and electronically gathered by Matt, who acted as track-herd and trail guide, scouting ahead, blazing a path while shooting fearful glances behind at the specter of disease and death that shadowed the procession through the forest of fear.

Piper Street Sound found a sacred glade, a clearing in the forest with room for hope, and got to work building a fire with his fellows, over which to craft this musical brew, heavily dosed with dubwise analog effects, shimmering and splashing spring reverbs, rich and hearty tape delays, the guitar mastery of a musical hero floats atop as frothy foam, and love for humanity is the base malt. Here it is. Won’t you take a sip?

*Promo Edit* Big new tune, from Perfect Giddimani (JA) that will be featured on the new double disc album from Conscious Riddims Records (Hawaii), titles "Be Still and Know". This is a laid back Roots track with a Reggae party theme. Great harmonies and back up vocals make this an instant classic.

Reggae Groove- Perfect Giddimani

“Protect the Fauna” is a conscious roots Reggae song that delivers a powerful message about the importance of respecting and protecting animals and nature. The lyrics, filled with vivid images of the jungle, the sea, and the mountains, invite us to reflect on the sacred value of every creature on the planet.

With a deep, spiritual, and meditative rhythm, the song blends the mysticism of classic Reggae with a positive vibration that awakens awareness in every verse. The chorus is a universal call: to end animal suffering and restore harmony between humanity and Mother Earth.

The poetic voice highlights the beauty of animals such as the lion, the jaguar, the dolphin, and the hummingbird, turning them into symbols of freedom and balance. The spoken bridge adds a prophetic tone, reminding us that without fauna, there is no life and no future.

This track embodies the essence of roots Reggae: music with purpose, with love, with resistance, and with a spiritual message of unity and respect for creation. It is a chant for conscious souls, an anthem for those who believe that life in all its forms must be protected.
