Antidote

Pulsating Dub

Following the success of their pandemic themed Dub album, Antidote, Mungo’s HiFi issue two vocal cuts to one of the LP’s biggest rhythms, on their Dumbarton Rock imprint. 
The first is Good Lovin, a sweltering romantic chant by legendary Jamaican rub-a-dub deejay Lady Ann, backed with a deep and hypnotic dub.
On a fuller mix of the same backing, comes New York Boogie by Israel’s Ranking Levy, a journey through the Big Apple and its surrounds in an emotive Big Youth influenced style.
Both songs saw release on an older version of the rhythm, but have been updated with more modern production and a live band. 
Each captures the heady days of Jamaican dances in the early 80s, while sounding completely fresh.

Gentleman's Dub Club feat. Natty - One Night Only [Easy Star Records 2015]

The latest installment of the Hold Tight Records digital catalogue comes courtesy of Ickle, a core Hold Tight family member and exciting up and coming DJ, producer and engineer. Ickle bring us two roots inspired tracks alongside the vocal talents of Dee Gomez and Indra MC.

The opening track from the EP ‘The Most High’ is a perfect example of Ickle’s energetic and hypnotising signature sound. A backbone of roots drums and a rolling bassline accompanies piano skanks and organ licks, with Dee Gomez providing euphoric and catchy lead vocals that go hand in hand with Ickle’s dubbed out style. 

The second track ‘Eye For An Eye’ is one for the sound systems. Incorporating heavyweight rolling percussion alongside stomach churning low end and ethereal sound effects, this one is a must for any selector. Indra MC compliments this with his signature style, hypnotic and melodic vocals accentuating a conscious subject matter.

HTD004 takes inspiration from the roots of UK sound system culture, whilst representing the Hold Tight ethos: presenting new sounds that draw heavy influence from the music’s history.
