The Naya Rockers are back with a remaster of their much-loved 2014 studio album, Naya Sound System. It features plenty of good vibes, irresistible riddims, and star collaborations across its nine tracks featuring: Kiddus I, Mikey General, Frankie Paul, Big Youth, Errol Dunkley, Johnny Clarke and a dub remix by Mad Professor
Naya Sound System first came about when Nathan Sabanayagam, drummer and one half of the Naya Rockers duo, started travelling to Kingston, Jamaica in 2004. With riddims recorded from his band back in Boston in hand, the idea was to collaborate with other musicians.
