PUT IT DOWN!

In August 2008, Welton Irie spent a few days in Sao Paulo - Brazil, performing for the 1st time ever in South America. Thanks to the collaboration between Moa Anbessa Sounds & Dubversao, we were able to offer the Brazilian massive 3 successful events. In this (dark) video you get a hint of Welton's vibe during the 1st night. Although he admitted being a little rusty since he last performed in Europe two years ago, Welton Irie still managed to kick up rumpus!

The next day was a cold one, even for Brazil, and an afternoon show that still manages to attract 200 people or so bubbling to the wicked rub-a-dub versions of Irie's style. You can hear the full session (along with Dubversao selecting before, during and after) at this following link: http://dubversao.com.br/som/sescWelton.mp3

On the last event, alongside Moa Anbessa Sounds selector StranJah, the vibe was ripe with 500+ in the crowd cheering the veteran deejay as he performed a bag ful-a-lyrics over Studio1, Channel One and Dynamite riddims. After 3 days performing Welton Irie was feeling the vibe back on the mic. As soon as we get the recording in hand.. it will be posted.

FRESH FOUNDATION!

After many years of sharing nothing but vibes the Moa Anbessa crew has released one of their strictly Dubplate mixes to the dedicated massives. This one compiles 35 tuff & wicked Dubs with artists from around the globe including countries such as Jamaica, UK, Burkina Faso and even Brazil. The line up is ruff with veteran artists such as Badoo, Kojak, Johnny Clarke, Cornell Campbell , Welton Irie, Rod Taylor and the ribbiiiiiiiitt master himself, The Lone Ranger. These, however, are not all considered by the masses "ordinary" Dubs. There are definitely more than a few surprises in this dub box that will make you want to mash up your tin pan. Riddims from the vaults of the infamous Studio1, Treasure Isle, Channel One, and King Jammy$ stables will most certainly make a one foot jam down jump up!!!
