Basic Channel website presentation :

"Six murderous outings for Lloyd Robinson’s immortal rhythm on this
showcase EP collecting singles produced by King Culture in Toronto and
Kingston, Jamaica, during 1980-81.
Rod Taylor was voiced in JA;
Barry Brown between both cities. Stamma was mic man for the JA sound
Taurus: this was his recording debut. Mixing was done at Tubby’s,
assisted by his apprentices Professor and Puggy (an expert with the
Delta 4 machine tape-delay).
These versions tore up dancehalls at
the time. Listen to Gemini at Skateland, with Welton Irie, Plough,
Ringo and full crew, all riding dubs."

Ire Hi Fi Singles Selection

J'ai découvers ce label de Hambourg (Allemagne) récemment et quelques unes
de leurs références valent le détours quand on aime le son Roots lourd (tendance Stepper). En dehors d'Alpha & Omega les artistes me sont inconnus. Tout les cuts ne se valent pas mais même pour ceux dont les versions vocales sont faibles ont peut se rabattre sur les versions/dub en face B... Bonne écoute !
