Jusqu’ici, ils n’avaient sortit que des maxis, le 5 novembre sort leur premier album, on va enfin trouver notre bonheur chez tous les bons disquaires!! Le concept utilisé pour la reprise des White Stripes reste le même tout au long de l’album et des grands noms de la Soul ou du Funk passent à la moulinette. Imaginez Curtis Mayfield, Prince ou bien Herbie Hancock rejoués dans un esprit Reggae/dub !! déroutant et génialissime !! Un bon concept pour un bon Album ! Que du bonheur !!!By salt

I was very excited to be asked to review Katchafire's third studio album, Say What Your Thinking, as I am a big fan of their two previous releases, Revival (2003) (which featured the highest selling NZ single of 2003) and Slow Burning (2005). Both albums gained high praise.
For this release, the seven-piece crew stepped into Auckland's York Studios at the end of 2006 with a different line-up. The very talented Thompson Hohepa (guitarist/vocals) left the group as did highly acclaimed NZ bassist, Ara Adams-Tamatea. The bands original bass player, Tere Ngarua, is back on bass duties with Ara continuing on as the groups booking agent.
Katchafire keep going from strength to strength and Say What Your Thinking is no exception! All aspects of this album impressed me from the production to the song-writing. Katchafire have put together the prefect sound track for summer!
The album kicks off with the title track, Say What Your Thinking, which begins with an awesome sax intro before it breaks into an infectious skanked-out catchy hook. It has some beautiful backing singing giving it a very soulful feel. Say What Your Thinking is the perfect introduction to Katchafire's feel good vibes if you're a first time listener of their music.
Now Girl is the second track and is an excellent lovers tune for the ladies, with a nice Island feel and a very catch hook. There are also several other standout tracks for me. The very dubby J-Dubb with a very heavy bass line is sure to rattle your insides on a big rig. This World is another feel good track depicting the plight of the world today and Meant To Be is another lovers tune with a mean bass line and very catchy horn section!
Katchafire also have an extra instrumental track, Agent-H, which is not included on the album release but can be purchased through iTunes as a single release.
Whether you're already a Katchafire fan or if you haven't heard them before, Say What Your Thinking is a must have for summer!! Big up to Katchafire for bringing such sweet sounding good vibe tunes!

Cette jeune française originaire du Cap Vert , à le mérite de nous avoir gratifier d'un excellent album reggae .
D'autant plus que les chanteuses sont assez rare dans ce genre de style musical , alors il est bon de le souligner que Mo'Kalamity est une perle du reggae francais .
Elle nous délivre une musique empreinter dans certains moment au groove et à la soul tout en restant dans une tradition reggae roots and concious jamaicain ; bien entendu les Wisards qui l'accompagne ne sont pas sans compter dans l'histoire , puisque ayant eu l'occasion d'apprécier c'est magnifique artistes en Live ; Je puis vous assurrez que les musiciens qui l' accompagne son d'une performance plus que honnorable "Dubwise" man !
Bref Mo'Kalamity & The Wizards ço s'écoute comme du petit pain héhé , et pis aller les écouter en live !!by DJ DemonAngel

Psalm 68
Dub 68Blessed with one of the sweetest voices in reggae, Horace Andy has had a remarkably consistent career over the last 30 years. This two-disc Trojan set covers his earliest years, beginning with his stint at Studio One with legendary producer Coxsone Dodd. Andy left Dodd after a couple of years, and began a nomadic drifting from producer to producer, which makes the consistent high quality of his records all the more amazing. Highlights here include "Nice and Easy," along with its dub, recorded with Niney Holness, and a trio of tunes produced by Bunny Lee, "Skylarking" (which was a remake of Andy's first big hit at Studio One), "Zion Gate," and a cover of Tapper Zukie's "Better Collie." Andy enjoyed a resurgence of sorts in the early '90s when he began a productive collaboration with the band Massive Attack, but what is arguably his strongest work belongs to the period covered by this anthology, making it a fine starting point for listeners looking to connect with this stylish Jamaican singer. ~ Steve Leggett
