This man is sending shockwaves throughout the reggae and dubstep
world, a purveyor of the 8-Bit sound backed by modern computer
muscle, Disrupts album Foundation Bit sold out in a day and required
immediate repress, packed with nuff original productions in his uniqu
style as well is his takes on classic riddims such as Tempo and Peenie
Peenie (Fade Away). He is described by Thom Yorke as the act to
check alongside Burial for something unique in dubstep and is also
championed by Mary Anne Hobbs. Next level dub biziness!
His cuts Empress and Brand New Second Hand are modern classics an
have the perfect blend of quality reggae music and Disrupts
unmistakable blip-beep sound. Both tracks have an upbeat offbeat
swing with a sound that interweaves around Mikey’s vocal with his
plethora of sound. The lead synth on the Second Hand dub is also
testament to his playing ability and instantly conjures up the same
images of cowboys and the Wild West felt in 80’s Jamaica along with a
heavy dub sound. These are destined to be on heavy rotation not only
on soundsytems but also by any purveyor of good quality music. Big
tings a gwaan fi Disrupt 2008, there’s no doubt about it, stay tuned!
Modern day dub master!!
Mikey Murka, Legendary Unity soundsystem veteran is well and truly Back on the
Scene Again. Last year he had a hit tune on Mungo’s Mary Jane Riddim and an album
from Reality Shock as well as other projects. His Jahtari E.P. however, is his finest
work to date and returns to his Ride pon the Riddim style. Everyone of these tune
are killers, no fillers! 2008 is going to be a big year for Mikey and these 10”s are
prime example of this mans talent as one of the UK’s finest Singjays. Check the
phenomenal version of DISRUPT and Mikey’s Sensi Addict, a wicked version of the
Horace Martin classic and dub available at www.jahtari.org
it’s already shifted a
crazy amount of copies with tens of thousands of downloads, oh and its FREE!!
