Lord have mercy!

…….. Now Thing 2 is here!

*we have the 2LP and cassette versions!*

Now Thing 2 is the follow up to the first comp of same name, which came out on legendary label Mo’Wax around 2001 – two decades ago! –
Now Thing’s first edition has become a kind of holy grail testament to the inventiveness of Jamaican dancehall, presenting some of the maddest instrumentals from the riddims that were doing it around that time.

Fast forward 20 years, and dancehall head Felix Hall, who recently kicked off his Chrome imprint, has been chasing up this honourable idea of a fresh compilation of dancehall instrumentals from JA for over two years now, and now with original graphic designer dons (also responsible for the mad art on Now thing vol 1) Will Bankhead & Oliver Payne on board, as well as Lil Toby and Richard Browne on extra-expertise with the compiling of cuts, and featuring truly level-setting instros from between 1997 – 2020. Equally timeless & also ‘of a time’ vibes throughout, with references to the 2000’s Rnb era, 90’s rave music and other genres of the soundsystem continuum, this thing is now ready to spin and can be enjoyed at adequate volume.

This compilation showcases the morphing lineage of that JA dancehall sound in fine style – wether it’s by way of re-fixed cuts from the original comp by Richard Browne, appearances from Massive B bossman Bobby Konders, alongside dons Sly & Lenky, Ward21 in combo and Kunley going solo, Steely & Clevie, Donovan Germain, Dave Kelly, Teetimus & Sheldon Stewart, Arif Cooper, Lion Face, Madd Spider (Hot Water!)…. Oooph, the list is 16 tracks long, and each one is – without doubt – pure blue-flamed, ultra-hot, fire.

Anyway – point here is: we’re dealing with the purest of contemporary JA vibes here. Another artefact to prove how the dancehall virus is the strongest of them all, and how the cross-contamination with other genres and music-worlds is encouraged same way.

….This is a proper artefact. Cherish it!
