Martha & The Muffins - Echo Beach - (30th Anniversary Remixes)
(CD/Digital) Echo Beach CD080, 2010-08-27

The legendary wave tune Echo Beach by the Canadian combo Martha & The Muffins is back on earth. Germany's finest (as far as progressive sounds and flows are concerned) dub label, named Echo Beach and inspired by the lyrics and spirit of that track, has set out to pay tribute to this song which is more than a classic. The first mix/remix of Echo Beach, done by Reverend E.C.H.O. and released on the Echo Beach sampler Various Artists: Far Away In Time has already enjoyed a strong reputation world wide. Marki Gane, the original composer of Echo Beach and still a member of M & M (aka Martha & Muffins) - and by the way, also married to Martha Johnson (lead singer of the band M&M) - enthused: "It sounds as if the orignal ECHO BEACH was shot into outer space, hit a planet and floated back to earth in pieces...!!!" NOW - 30 years later - after Echo Beach was written - the Echo Beach label proudly presents the 30th Anniversary Remixes and the full and essentiel: ... it is one of those tunes that on first hearing you like, but can't exactly place why, and by 30 seconds into the spin you´re close to falling in love. You just have to go with it and this seductively simple number is just that. Don´t try to understand it just accept this as love at first sight.

Antipop Consortium - Lay Me Down (Grant Phabao Remix)
(Exclusive remix) Paris DJs, 2010-08-10

Recorded in July 2009, this remix is both official and unreleased. Produced par the international master of roots reggae Grant Phabao with Earl Blaize during a visit from the latter to Grant's studio in Paris. The track reinstates a chorus which didn't make the final cut on the album Fluorescent Black. The resulting remix is... quite pop and a surefire radio hit! A heresy for a band called Anti-Pop Consortium!! Consequently, only a small part of this remix is available, blended in a Ninja Tune mix on the cult website Paris DJs (20 Years of Remixes and Re-interpretations - Selected by Djouls). Get the complete info here and download the mix here.

Grant Phabao & The Lone Ranger - Sweet Talking
(Digital/Limited CD) Colored-Inc. COLI008, 2010-08-10

The Lone Ranger is one of Jamaica's most influential early dancehall DJs. He was twice voted N°1 deejay on the island, in 1979 and 1980. He helped pioneer a newly rhythmic, on-the-beat rhyming style that led DJ toasting into the modern age, and punctuated his lyrics with bizarre exclamations and sound effects ("bim" and "ribbit" were his favorites) that made him perhaps the most imaginative stylist of his time. Thanks to the incredible production skills of French dubmeister Grant Phabao, who crafted for him a splendid album in 2005 (Kulchaklash / to be pronounced "Culture Clash"), and a hit single in 2006 making waves all over the irie globe, with rub-a-dub partner Carlton Livingston and their cover of Dandy Livingston's Message To You Rudie, The Lone Ranger is now back with his 12th album, Sweet Talking, and another big step towards bringing back the golden age of rub-a-dub!
