Just noticed this album got released on 5th of Jan and it sounds amazing! Disrupt’s output is great as it is but this sounds awesome. I will be hunting this down asap. Check out the small review below…
Bo Marley Vs Disrupt Album Review…
“Expanding their 2008 clash set, Disrupt, Benja and Bo Marley face off again with a full length battle running for a further 12 rounds. The original and dub versions of ‘Bauhelm’ and the unhinged ‘Fleisch’ from the first battle are present and correct, but things start heating up with the rather nasty Robocop-gets-high styles on ‘Robot Tracker’, with Benja’ super minimal version eclipsed by Bo Marley’s properly odd ‘Robotter’ version with full vocals and electrodub FX, or Bo Marley’s cod epic ‘Robot Echos’ dancefloor damager. Benja initiates the next round with the half-cut ‘Ursulla Tracker’ which is promptly flipped on it’s arse by Bo Marley ‘Ursulla Dub’ with clarinet accompaniement and a punch drunk 8-bit riddim, which Disrupt duly rewires with a constantly mutating dub version that’ll sound mad in the dance. Benja’s ‘Tot Tracker’ lays the foundation for the next round with another perfectly brief and succinct sketch leading to Bo Marley’s heart rate relaxing ‘Der Tot Ist Kein Problem’, entering with cool horror dubbed FX before adding a sinister ditty roughly translated as ‘Death Is No Problem’ with fearlessly comical melodies reminding of the soundtrack to some early 90’s euro import kids TV programme. Bo Marley’s ‘Roots Am Start’ and Disrupt’s ‘Roots Im Tapeloop’ riposte finish this endearingly odd set with a couple of brilliant 8-bit dub roots revisions, with Bo Marley’s version sounding like an emaciated cyborgian Rhythm & Sound track, and Disrupt’s version pressing heavy on the FX to send the track tripping deep into his machines. Sick.”
DEVASTATING!!!
