A Tribute to Osbert Maddo a.k.a Bionic Singer a.k.a. O. Maddo

Osbert Maddo (a.k.a Maddo, the Bionic Singer, Papa Maddo was brought up in Easter Kingston. He went to the legendary Alpha Boys Primary School and then to Excelsior high school. As a youth, he and his brother UU Maddo used to listen to Sound Systems such as Sir Stanford, Sir Norman Arrows and Phase 1. The sound Sir Stanford with who he used to sing initally transformed to Stylistics (Maddo's favourite singing group at the time) and a man called Danhai became the owner and DJ.
 
One evening, in '77, his friends Michael and Scarley decided that they should stop by the sound Stereophonic to meet their friend Donovan who was working with the sound. While there Maddos friend Scarley dared the deejay Welton Irie to give Maddo the microphone. The singer then sung a few songs (such as Skylarking by Horace Andy – Maddo’s favourite singer and also the one he based his singing style on). He was then asked to perform the following weekend and he was soon a resident singer on the sound.
  
 In 1983 Maddo relocated to the USA.

Cubiculo Records got in touch with Maddo on the Summer of 2015 to voice a “Smuggel Riddim” by Casio Love, Maddo instantly fell in love with it and agree to work with Cubiculo and Casio Love to make his comeback tune as he didn’t have any music released for years. After sending us the vocal Maddo was asking for the final mix every day and week as he was feeling the tune a lot and he wanted to start pushing it on the US, on the day we sent him the final mix we got the most unexepted and sad reply we could possibly be waiting for, Osbert had pass away the day before we finished the mix.

This is so far the most special release Cubiculo has done, it’s more than a release, it’s a tribute to this great singer and we are very proud to be releasing his ever last recording. Part of profits will go to his son and wife that have been supporting this release since we started to work with Maddo until today.

RIPower King Maddo, your music and legacy will never be forgotten.

Peter Youthman & Mikee Versatile - Joke We A Make dub

featured on the 2009 release 
Roots garden records 
“Showcase Part 2”

( issued on 12" vinyl and digital download)

Produced and mixed by Nick Manasseh 
featuring: Freddie McGregor, Danny Red, Ras Zacharri, 
Earl 16 and Soothsayers Horns

Catalogue number RGR:SC002

Tracks 1 & 2
Danny Red started his recording career in Kingston Jamaica 1983, but it was not until the early nineties that Danny found success in the UK roots scene. Teaming up with the producer Nick Manasseh together they wrote and voiced the seminal “Be Grateful“. Following the huge success of this and other tracks, Danny was voted the best roots artist 94 & 95 as well as being the first roots artist to be signed to Columbia records for 25 years during 1995.

Fast forward to 2008 and Danny  and Nick are back in the studio together with the musical vibes flowing stronger than ever. Danny wastes no time jumping on board this rootsy and anthemic “steppers” rhythm complete with Nyahbinghi hand drums and live horn section - courtesy of Jonah Dan and Soothsayers Horns. Danny sings words of warning to any conspirators and back biters that claim say they know his business.
Manasseh unleashes an upfull and dance floor friendly dubwise version.


Roots Garden Showcase Part 2

You Don't Know

Danny Red - "You Don't Know" / Manasseh - "A Knowing Version"

featured on the 2008 release 
Roots Garden records 
“Showcase Part 1”

( issued on 12" vinyl and digital download)

Produced and mixed by Nick Manasseh 
featuring: Johnny Osbourne, Chezidek 
Bob Skeng and Dark Angel

Catalogue number RGR:SC001

Tracks 5 & 6
West London’s Dark Angel is a talented and versatile roots, dancehall and R & B singer who in recent years has built up a name within London’s underground dancehall scene and on pirate radio. In 2008 gave way to the release of the lyrically inspired herb anthem “Medication” on the Norwich Foundation label.

Dark Angel tackles the rhythm like a man sent on a mission from the creator, his militant singjay tones sounding reminiscent of Capleton over a relentless, dark rhythm track equipped with punching 80’s drum sounds, infectious synth lines, a subsonic bassline
and futuristic piano chops. The subject matter is strictly cultural as he chants down the injustices of the Babylon system:
“you ever wonder why Babylon invaded? Churches and villages them go ram-raided.. The past is the present them try to erase it…..
Jah give me the power free the minds of the people tell them no corruption and evil…”
