Sweet Rocksteady from Vienna in beautiful packaging! Fortunately, the people of Rocksteady Conspiracy have dedicated themselves to this wonderful, much more soul-heavy style, Ken Boothe would have loved them. In short, if you buy this beautiful piece of music on vinyl, which is the only authentic format for Rocksteady, you can't go wrong. The dub version is on the flip, also very nice. (Excerpt from review irieites.de)

The CHEEKBONIANS know no fear of touch and mix reggae, TwoTone, punk and powerpop to their very own version of the most beautiful dance music in the world. STREET REGGAE call this the CHEEKBONIANS. "BOSS" was recorded and mixed with Olifr M. Guz at the Star Track Studios in Schaffhausen in autumn 2014. Ben Stoll from Bern has mastered. Tobi Dahmen from Utrecht, NL has drawn. Four tracks have been created that encourage people to dance, sweat, scream, shout and drink. The CHEEKBONIANS say: UP THE REGGAE!

The young sieve from France's southwest celebrates early and skinhead reggae and has a heart for heroes with bags of tears: in "Derrick Song" one pays homage to Horst Tappert himself.

BADASONIC presents: the second episode of the "Soundclash Series" split single with the finest vintage Reggae from the Netherlands and Belgium. There can only be one double A-side single in the "Soundclash Series": Belgium sends THE MOON INVADERS into the field from the southern flank, who let "Ride On Donkey" sound in the official Boss Reggae format. From the north come Dutch band THE UPSESSIONS, who in turn present a trad ska version of their Belgian colleagues' "Walk Don't Run". Of course, everything here has been transferred from the tape to the vinyl matrix in crackling, fully analogue sound aesthetics. incl. Download code
