Fat Stash Podcast #001

Jungle music has taken on many forms over the years, but one consistent hallmark has been its rich dubplate culture. For many of the sound’s leading artists, every record played in a mix or DJ set comes with its own unique story of how it landed there, often because it will never be heard again.

International collective Chopstick Dubplate have shown this throughout their career. While the crew are most obviously affiliated with their Chopstick Dubplate imprint, they’re just as well known for their mixtapes, where they pull together unreleased material from across the spectrum of jungle and ragga music.

On 12th January, we invite founding members Aries, Jacky Murda and Demolition Man to play Room One as part of a drum & bass and jungle heavy bill. To mark the occasion, they sent us over a free download of their new Taqueria Chopstick recording, an hour-long mixtape fully stacked with dubplates from the crew and some of their closest peers.  

Chopstick Dubplate play FABRICLIVE on 12/01: fabricldn.co/j54a1x

REGENERATION:Creator Of The Dub

King Tubby Dub

We are very exited to anounce the release of Dengue Dengue Dengue´s first album titled: La Alianza Profana (“The Unholy Alliance"). The unique sound of this production is a fusion of several elements like the psychedelic sounds of Peruvian 70's cumbia, the deep basslines of dub and UK Bass combined with elements of techno and dancehall. The visual element is key in their dj/live shows, using always handcrafted masks and insane video animations, embracing perfectly that tropical and psychedelic journey which creates an explosive energy in the dancefloor. This shows generated a solid fan base even before they started releasing tracks. 
2012 has been an amazing year for the masked duo, they have been booked to play at major events and festivals, sharing stage with artists such as Calle 13, Manu Chao, Bomba Estereo or Mad Professor, among others; they have also been invited to perform at NOVA 2012 in Sao Paulo, Brazil (http://rojoprojects.co/nova) one of the most important festivals of contemporary culture.

Now, finally, and after near two years in the studio, Dengue Dengue Dengue! present their first official release, an album with 11 original cuts, which takes cumbia into new exiting territories. Tracks like "Don Marcial" or "Rayos Cumbicos" take us into a mystical digital journey, while tunes like “Alpha & Omega” and “Chacalom” mix cumbia with contemporary tendencies like Trap or Uk Bass. There are also dub elements everywhere in this album, specially in “Dumbia Murdahs” and even a sonic acid Tribal Guarachero track, “La Alianza Profana”.

This release comes hand in hand with their first video: "Simiolo", directed by Mikael Stornfelt (Chita Films), that in three minutes, shares with us that dementia which is included in all the different visual sensations behind the mask.

The album "La Alianza Profana" will be available on october 12th as a digital download via itunes and on CD throu the Auxiliar website, record label which will introduce very interesting an exciting artists from Peru in their upcoming releases.

Dengue Dengue Dengue! - Prende (Preview)

VP Records continues to celebrate its 40th anniversary with the definitive, deluxe reissue of an early title by Gregory Isaacs, one of Jamaican music’s icons and VP Records’ marquee catalog artists.
When it comes to sheer volume of output, Gregory Isaacs was one of Jamaica’s most prolific singers, with more than 125 albums to his credit in a 40-plus year career. His 13 albums with VP rival that of Dennis Brown. 

VP was the first to press and distribute the touchstone LP Mr. Isaacs, the singer’s third full-length release and one of the first LPs the company handled in the US. It was originally pressed on Ossie Hibbert’s Earthquake label and entitled simply, The Greatest. In Jamaica, the album was also pressed on Trevor “Leggo” Douglas’ Cash & Carry label. The current reissue pays homage to the first edition - and VP Records’ 40th anniversary - with the return to the original artwork and labels.

Remastered by Kevin Metcalfe, the album is reissued on vinyl concurrent with the closely related dub album, Leggo Dub, and also packaged together on an expanded 32-track, double CD, including bonus tracks such as the 12-inch mix of “Mr. Know It All.” These are housed in a 6-panel digipack with 16-page booklet. The 2019 edition is the most expansive since the 2001 reissue on Blood and Fire.

The album includes the enduring hit “Slave Master,” later popularized through the live performance in the film Rockers, as well as “Set The Captive Free,” and “Storm.” The latter would become a widely reused ‘riddim,’ a rhythmic framework that was the basis of dozens of versions by different artists, including hits by Tappa Zukie (“Oh Lord”); Tristan Palma (“Spliff Tail”); and Pinchers (“Bandelero”), among others. Also in conjunction with the full release, VP will issue “Storm” b/w “Leggo Dub” on 7-inch single for the first time.

Isaacs’ catalog would grow to well over one hundred albums by the time of his death in 2010. Released in over two dozen different editions, Mr. Isaacs is second only to his iconic Night Nurse album in terms of its influence. 

VP Records will celebrate the life and music of Mr. Isaacs at multiple events in 2019 in tandem with the label’s 40th Anniversary. Mr. Isaacs will be released on July 19. His 68th birthday would have been July 15.

This week my guest is Sandra Cross. Shame on me that it took me 20 shows to finally get a female guest! Sandra is THE voice of Lovers Rock, but she’s also a lover of roots reggae, hence the tracks we released together last year. In the interview we learn about her early days growing up in Brixton and how she rebelled and immersed herself in the vibrant London sound system scene of the 70s and 80s. Sandra offers some real insight into what it was like to be a no.1 hit-making artist back in the day and about how she continues to write and record today.
