Muti Music is pleased to announce the release of the 4th installment of remix EPs from the Sizzla album Born A King, which we released in May of this year. The album produced by Mista Savona has received critical acclaim and charted in the top 20 of iTunes Reggae, and the single 'Champion Sound' (featured & remixed in this EP) has also been living in the Beatport Reggae Top 10 for the past 4 months.
'Champion Sound' showcases Sizzla at his finest in a soundclash style - "all them come a talk, none of them caan come test!" - alongside rocksteady legend Errol Dunkley who supplies some really beautiful vocals throughout the tune - "Babylon pressure is all around, but we can conquer them with our sound". Mista Savona also brings the guns blazing, providing his original & heavy Rockers instrumental the 'Soundclash Riddim' together with some remarkably tough vocal versions - featuring Jamaican legends Turbulence, Iyashanti, Johnny Clarke, Determine & the one and only Burro Banton (in one of his hardest tunes yet!)
The Electronic remix lineup is one of the strongest so far, stacked with a variety of genres that includes Drum & Bass and Junglist-styled beats from Dub Phizix, Skeptical and Dov1, a relentlessly funky Glitch Hop version by Spoonbill that is bound to destroy a few dancefloors and turn more than a few heads. Roommate provides a well needed deep Dubstep version, and Hypha and LeGinge provide melodic and Glitchy versions with a hint of Future-bass and R&B influences.
To give some background on this project - whilst on tour in Australia we met Mista Savona, a Melbourne based producer who had just returned from Jamaica with a bag of new riddims and an almost-completed album with legendary reggae artist Sizzla. We listened to the tunes and loved the fresh new sounds and very positive feel of the album, with its uplifting messages and inspired vocal performances. Muti Music has been releasing a series of Remix EP's based around the album's May 2014 release, featuring producers at the leading edge of dance music globally. These have been receiving rave reviews across the Blogosphere, play on BBC, XFM, Sirius and numerous other internet and FM stations, as well as reviews in high profile magazines like DJMAG.
