Our first release has Dre Skull teaming up with Jamaican dancehall legend Sizzla on some classic 120bpm dancehall. Dre Skull’s timpani and strings-driven “Skull Riddim” anchors Sizzla’s dynamic call to stop the violence and the result is an instant anthem in the long tradition of positive, anti-violence dancehall tracks. The vinyl features some massive, bassbin rumbling remixes by Buraka Som Sistema, Lee Mortimer & Dre Skull that are not to be missed. The digital release has additional remixes by Rico Tubbs and Goon making sure every base (bass?) is covered. “Gone Too Far” has garnered early support from Annie Mac and Sinden and the underlying “Skull Riddim” is getting some alternate voicings, so be on the look out for some exclusive dubplates popping up. The vinyl and digital are set to drop on March 17th.
