Not Enough

The opening 12” salvo from the Ital Counselor Record Stable has arrived. The fruits of a long bubbling idea to bring back from the sands of time the moral thrust and crystalline conviction of the mighty Martin Luther King Jr. in a dubwise style. In a time like now as the individualistic ethos of the Century of the Self arrives at its logical end game we call all massive and crew to sit tight and listen keenly… A double A-side bass thriller with a message for the ages, NOT ENOUGH, features the musical legacy of two dear friends and two of our favorite contributors to the global reggae sound system community. JAH WARRIOR meets RSD (Rob Smith)…Paired together for the first time ever in a back-to-back dub conference… Side A sees JAH WARRIOR bring the weight and force we have all come to expect from Steve Mosco’s 25 plus year body of work. Like sheering frequencies bouncing off the brutalist architecture of our modern urban landscapes, his rendition is direct and to the point. MLK’s words lay on top of a horns man stepper ready built to rattle speaker boxes outernationally. Brace yourself… Side AA features a re-imagining of Jah Warrior’s cut by the stalwart of bass culture Rob Smith under the guise of his RSD moniker. All dubb’ers will recognize the name. From Smith & Mighty, More Rockers and Blue & Red Rob has influenced a generation of fans, sound system operators, and selectors worldwide. This Re-Rub keeps up the quality, the subtly and sub that we have come to appreciate from his body of work. Concept by Andy G / Ital Counselor
