OUT NOW!
Link in bio! Recorded in Paris 12 years ago with the full band, this album almost never made it out. Gabriel Carb with the Dominican Reggae Band Collective Security pulled it back from a label that wanted to own the Record. Then his computer got stolen. The last copy ended up on a harddisk of my mother’s: she got it after hearing him play it once at mutual friends, just feeling the music and keeping it safe without knowing what it would become. 12 years later, a call. We opened the encrypted harddisk. The music was still there. Right away, We said it should come out through the idea i‘ve been carrying: a not-for-profit collective label, where the music stays with the artist. First Single: “Happiness” by Collective Security. Reggae with a clear Dominican flavour! Talking resistance. Babylon system. Youth being misled. Happiness and depression. Nature. Rastafari spirituality. The title track starts: „Happiness, can’t leave me alone Loneliness can’t see me through“ And it pulls you straight in. 12 years old and still exactly on time. Enjoy the first Single! Out on Youtube NOW! and on all streaming Platforms on the 20th of June! Whole Album to come soon…;)

*Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind* is an American romantic science fiction film released in 2004. The screenplay was written by Charlie Kaufman, and the film was directed by Michel Gondry. Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet star as a couple who have erased each other from their memories; Winslet altered her acting style for the role.[2] The cast also includes Kirsten Dunst, Mark Ruffalo, Elijah Wood, and Tom Wilkinson. The film’s title is a quote from Alexander Pope’s 1717 poem *Eloisa to Abelard*. It incorporates elements of psychological drama, science fiction, and non-linear storytelling to explore the nature of memory and romantic love.](https://s7.imginn.com/755264089_1055215987465641_2427496717125535088_n.jpg?t51.71878-15/755264089_1055215987465641_2427496717125535088_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e15_p320x320_tt6&_nc_cat=1&ig_cache_key=Mzk0ODQ5NDUyNTk4OTg0MjA0MQ%3D%3D.3-ccb7-5&ccb=7-5&_nc_sid=58cdad&efg=eyJ2ZW5jb2RlX3RhZyI6IkNMSVBTLnhwaWRzLjY0MC5zZHIudmlkZW9fZGVmYXVsdF9jb3Zlcl9mcmFtZS5DMyJ9&_nc_ohc=cgcVHCoq84YQ7kNvwG3UnNM&_nc_oc=AdqEqEUYafHl2cruKuqLDYdtG4vct0NVry2LxP4Qf7RBnXgBjDlC8xndCgOeM_FMT-mIxrR5wLZxspfbYfg22b1o&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.cdninstagram.com&_nc_gid=xxtSIp7QYizpSvqC8k6HMw&_nc_ss=73580&oh=00_AQCoupzDHAkGqPLpYpC8cxbrWdbgBoSeEZHzyZhK1LUSpQ&oe=6A6A2721)
