Longplayer No. 6 of the Danish band with 10 (English sungend) tracks, including some instrumentals. Overall a high-class and very opulent mixture of ska, soul and rocksteady. Very smart, very danceable. 2015 Pork Pie

Limited to 400 copies Arthur Kitchener is also known to many from the band THE LAST RESORT, where he played bass from 1980 to 1982. His keen interest in 60s 2 Tone and Ska combines backyard and garage flair with an unclean authentic sound that possesses charm and depth. The songs also represent an unlimited joy of playing with different musicians, which shaped the zeitgeist of the British ska era, especially the 2 Tone era. Songs like "Play my record", "Sooty is a Rudie", "Ska-Wars" are absolute classics in 2 tone pure culture. (Source: underdog-fanzine.de)

Arthur Kay is something of the most famous insider tip of the ska scene, because although he has been involved in all the developmental stages of the genre since the late 1960s, he is mainly known to scene connoisseurs. With the Clerks, one of the most exciting skabands from German lands is the accompaniment. Since the "Freedom Sounds Festival" Kay and the Clerks have been on stage together and have released a versatile album with "The Night I Came Along". It's not just ska fans who get their money's worth with this cast!

The reggae classic from 1979 is reissued here. Alton Ellis, one of Jamaica's most soulful voices, collaborated with Jackie Mittoo on the album. The result is a wonderful disc of 60's Reggae and Lovers Rock.

Alpheus' brand new album "Unify", produced by Roberto Sánchez, is their fifth album together and once again they have left no stone unturned and the attention to detail is evident! The carefully written and produced album contains 12 brilliant tracks, all original compositions from Ska Rocksteady, Roots Rocksteady and Early Reggae, performed by the talented "Lone Ark Riddim Force Band". There is no doubt that this is another high quality lover and collector's item from this team is that will stand the test of time for many years to come.

Seventh album by the dream team of singer Neil Martin aka Alpheus, who with his warm and unmistakable voice is one of the greatest genre representatives alongside the still active veterans of the golden era, and producer Roberto Sanchez. Together with their gifted "Lone Ark Riddim Force" they give us again their outstanding, traditional reggae/rocksteady sound, which could well have originated from the Kingston of the 60s.

The track starts with the title track and quickly makes it clear what it's all about. Fine early reggae with beautiful vocals and a pleasant hookline perfins from the loudspeakers and definitely makes you want more. And this pleasure is served very exquisitely. With catchy melodies, sing-alongs, a thoroughly positive mood and exquisite vintage sound. The producer Roberto Sanchez, in particular, does not let himself be lumped in sound and likes to create music in his Spanish domicile that seems to come directly from the 60s: Early Reggae, Rocksteady and Ska by the way, it should be mentioned that he is also very adept at travelling when it comes to the later chapters of Jamaican music.

The band, which was founded in Paris in 1995, plays its own melancholic ska reggae sound of the brand 8°6 Crew. That's what you stand for from the start. After 3 records, the band reunited despite various inconsistencies and the tragic death of two band members and now releases their fourth album with »Working Class Reggae", which fits seamlessly into their other works in style and sound. Lots of uptempo, always "dubby" and above all with the melancholic note that is so typical of the sound of the Parisian suburban combo. The band, which now enjoys cult status in the scene, does what it does best and does it well. You don't get tired and still know what you're getting. (Source: jpc.de)

The current album of the French was recorded in LA and convinces again with Ska and Punky Reggae!

John Roy and the rotating line-up of all-star ska musicians at his Smoke & Mirrors Sound System keep going, consistently producing some of the best new ska and reggae songs. The latest proof of that is the stunning double-A-side 10" single, which reunites (sort of) two of Symarip's mainstays, Roy Ellis and Monty Neysmith, who have both released their own music recently. In addition to all the outstanding musicians on this EP (including Matt Parker, Eric Abbey, Victor Rice, Buford O'Sullivan and many more) the great Roger Rivas not only brought his keyboard magic here but also mixed the whole thing first class
