The much-anticipated second album instalment from Hollie Cook.  Prince Fatty dubs her self-titled album tracks adding extra bass, delays and reverbs to Hollie’s captivating vocals. Featuring tracks such as ‘For Me You Are Dub’; a ska version of an old Andrews Sisters’ classic, ‘And The Beat Goes On’; a brand new dub cover of the The Whispers’ disco classic, ‘Walking in the Sand’; a delicious adaptation of the Shangri La’s legendary record, and ‘Baby’; a new revamp of this heavily requested anthem, in collaboration with French synth-pop outfit, ‘The Shoes’.
 
“The dub versions showcase real tape echoes, heavy spring reverbs and alternate instrumental elements such as melodica, percussion or horns that were hidden in the vocal versions. All the dubs are mixed live in my studio in the same Rub a Dub style as was made famous in 70s Jamaica by King Tubby and others, i.e not with the use of computers for automation and endless digital nonsense but with fingers, late night vibes and re-arranged with a razor blade!” Prince Fatty

SUN GOT'S A SMILE

[Verse]
Sun's got a smile like it knows my name
Waves are talking in a secret game
Sand sticks to my feet like it’s holding on
The tide hums a tune
But the moment’s gone

[Chorus]
Island whispers
Tell me the truth
What’s the rhythm of this life’s root
Island whispers
Sing it clear
The world spins softer when you're near

[Verse 2]
Coconut shadows dance on the shore
Driftwood tells stories of something more
Palm leaves clap
They don’t need a plan
Life’s so simple when it’s just the sand

[Prechorus]
The ocean winks
The stars reply
The night breathes deep
The moon hangs high

[Chorus]
Island whispers
Tell me the truth
What’s the rhythm of this life’s root
Island whispers
Sing it clear
The world spins softer when you're near

[Bridge]
A broken shell holds the sound of a dream
Time slows down like a lazy stream
Oh
The breeze
It laughs
It knows my fear
Says
“Let it go
The answers are here”

Get ready for an 80’s dancehall / roots revival with this killer release from Queens, NY’s new Rock Steady dons, The Frightnrs. This four piece ensemble have taken the cooled out vintage vibes of Jamaican Rock Steady, combined it with the raw energy and vocal stylings of 80’s Rub A Dub and added a touch of punk rock spirit to create an entirely unique sound that redefines what a reggae band can sound like. They recently broke through with a soaring cover of Etta James’ “I’d Rather Go Blind” on NY’s esteemable Daptone Records, and have now give us this great 5 track EP for Mad Decent. The Daptone connection should give you an idea of the genuine sound we’re dealing with here- this is the real deal vintage vibes, polished into a beautiful roughness by longtime NY producer Victor “Ticklah” Axelrod. Like Diplo says, “Close your eyes and get transported to Kingston Jamaica 1981.”
