"Italy has a pretty good position on the dub scene, but a fact is that Italian releases appear a bit rarely, so it’s even more joyful for us to introduce new 12” by Bababoom Hi Fi from Naples. This time we get a solid dose of roots sounds with a fresh version of the classic “Skylarking” riddim performed by The Roots Defender – an Italian top backing band.

On the A side we can hear Kojo Neatness on vocals – he comes from Kingston and has already appeared i.a. on Dreadsquad productions. Bush Chemist is responsible for the dub version and at the end of the side there are the incredible Ital Horns and their version, as always on a very high level.

Side B contains Blackout JA, who reminds me of Buju Banton (what is a big plus), we also get dubplate mix and a version by Dougie – so different than the one on the A side: there is more space, echo and reverbs.

This release confirms that it’s worth to follow the Italian, big sound system scene."
