Following on from a storming start to the year with a number
of high quality underground hits, Reggae Roast are going from strength to
strength and have built up a very loyal following, both for their label and
events. This release is set to be no different, having already done the rounds
on dubplate for a number of months and has mashed many a dance. They’ve gone
for everyone’s favourite up and coming producer outta Leeds, Tradesman and
Reggae Roast mic man extraordinaire, Parly B inna wicked combination.
Drawing inspiration from the ‘golden age’ of digital Reggae
production, Dubplate Fashion, is sure to get people skanking out each and every
time. Referencing classic production styles from producers such as King Jammy
& Gussie P, Tradesman has created his own unmistakable sound with his
remake of the classic Rumours Riddim originally voiced by Gregory Isaacs in the
80’s. Top that off with Parly B flinging out bar after bar of lyrical heat and
you have a toppa top tune!
Wrecking dancefloors wherever he goes, Parly B has made
incredible in roads in the UK dub scene in the last 12. He came to light with
his stand out release “Competition” on Mungo’s Hi Fi’s Scotch Bonnet imprint
and since then has been one of the most sought after MCs in the UK. Parly has
gone on to collaborate with a whole heap of diverse and sonically interesting
producers such as Riddim Tuffa, 7FT Soundsystem, The Skints, Lionfire &
Mungo’s Hi-Fi showcasing his imitable style and riding any riddim how only he
can.
Hailing from Leeds, Tradesman has been exposed to a hot bed
of musical activity, more importantly Soundsystem culture, for a number of
years. Birthplace of Iration Steppas & the renowned Subdub dances it was
only a matter of time before Tradesman caught the bug. He is a resident at one
of Subdub’s more underground offshoots, Dancehall Science, and regularly
supports some of the most exciting artists in Dub music today playing sets
where the majority of the tunes are his
own productions. This has, in turn, led to Scotch Bonnet (Mungo’s Hi-Fi
imprint) snapping up his debut release with Parly B, ‘Inna Competition’ which
gained support from some of the scene’s top players and took Tradesman’s
ruffneck digital sound international.
Adam Prescott combines a crucial selection of rough and
tough Roots music with a modern injection of Dubstep & Steppas. With
support and guidance from some of the biggest names in the scene, Adam has been
making moves in the world of Dub & Dubstep for a while now working on
original tunes with well-known and established artists.
Reggae Roast is building a formidable catalogue featuring
some of the most exciting artists in the UK and beyond. Key players in the
resurgence of the UK Roots scene over the past 5 years, they are a leading
light in the new generation of dub music. Setting them apart from the crowd is
their ruff n tuff remixes giving the label a unique cross over appeal. Look out
for plenty more releases in the coming months from the likes of Adam Prescott,
Charlie P, Dubmatix, Vibration Lab and many more.
