This 1h16m concert recording will leave you free to relive the memories and emotions of the era, especially when it comes to Reggae and the perception of the music and culture of that era. BLACK UHURU ("black sounds of freedom"), was to perform for the first time at the ROCKPALAST ROCK NIGHT.

Echo Beach asked friends of the label to rework Horace Andy’s classic tracks in their own sound outfit. This time the label hasn’t trawled old Studio One tapes for historic vocal snippets – that would sooo nineties; no, Horace Andy personally put in an appearance to sing new versions of his classic tracks on top of timeless and contemporary riddims.

Inna De Yard is back, with their best album yet! The much-loved acoustic reggae project makes a triumphant return with another heart-warming set of unplugged classics, titled Family Affair. To fully understand the latest iteration of the project. Inna De Yard has always sought to capture the essence of Jamaican popular music by stripping reggae down to its core essentials.

In Reggae, all roads lead to the “Riddim Twins”, Sly & Robbie. Now, Sly & Robbie meet Dubmatix. The Canadian producer and multi-instrumentalist got his hands on original Sly & Robbie tracks and spent months crafting this new album, "Overdubbed". 

Iconic figures of the Reggae & Dub scene converge on this epic album, the first ever full solo album by Reggae legend Cedric 'Congo' Myton, mixed and mastered by Scientist, featuring Omar Perry, Davanna Sweet and Jamaican dub poet Kanda.

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

UbuntuFM's Ikenna Okeh interviewed Allan Agard from The Conscious Underground. TCU's track 'Dirty Politician' is in heavy rotation on UbuntuFM Reggae Radio and the band is about to release a new single. Get ready for some conscious words of wisdom and positive vibrations.

Today considered as Classic Reggae, so much remains unchallenged, this little island called Jamaica has provided in content & creation, especially Roots Reggae of the late 60s,70s & 80s. Not to speak of the political actuality of many songs, who respond to today’s world of unrest as if they were written yesterday, coming straight from the heart of all those originators we admire and love so much!

"The album is a masterfully crafted piece of work. The balance of stunning new tracks and wise selection of a brimming catalog score on all levels" - Robert Heilman, ReggaeVibes - and we subscribe to that notion! Revivals and reunions are often excuses for desperate musicians to relive past glories. NOT SO with Zap Pow's "Again”.

The PathHeights are singer, songwriter, producer duo Akosua Aset and Aumuna. Deriving from the word Ptahites, meaning spiritual, creative beings conveying a collective conscious message. A message we love and fully subscribe to!
