JAMAICA part III

Oldies & rarities today... I've met Chris Blackwell there in Jamaïca. The man is the one who gave a chance to the world to hear about Marley's song, signing him on the Island label. Give thanx !

Here is one of the weirdest cut I've never heard coming from Jamaïca. Hypnotic strings part for an unexpecting Exodus version...

JAMAICA part I

Photobucket

Back from an odd, short & very exciting trip from Jamaïca with a lot of pics, sounds & a big smile on my face... I've met there great talents, Courntey John is one of them, a falsetto voice, the man sings on old Pecking riddims, I really hope I'll have a collab with him on the next Blundetto thing.

Music is everywhere in Jamaïca, in the streets, the shops, and every cars you get in... I discover this old Sizzla Kalonji in a cab, playing perfectly loud a Dj Kelly mixtape. Killer Hit !!!

Sizzla "I know you love me baby"

I know it's kind of a cliché, but classics mean something different in that kinda place. Even a burned track sounds tight !

Boris Gardiner "Ain't No Sunshine"

More to come soon.
