General Jah Mikey - Jah Mission is Timeless
General Jah Mikey - Jah Mission is Timeless
Hypnotic and graceful from General Jah Mikey
Sampler
Jamaican singer General Jah Mikey follows up on his Original Yard Food album, and together with French multi-instrumentalist, producer and sound engineer Tooney Roots he serves up yet another delicious treat.
General Jah Mikey has been in and out of the music business for almost three decades. He has tried and tested several different styles over the years, including jungle and dubstep. Tooney Roots’ productions lean towards the heavier side of roots with influences from the UK dub scene.
And together they have made an album that is hard and uncompromising, yet melodic and harmonious, partly thanks to General Jah Mikey’s smooth style. He has a deep and soothing voice that flows gracefully over Tooney Roots’ massive bass lines and pounding drums complemented by a vicious synthesizer or a bright piano here and there.
Jah Mission is Timeless is a showcase album where each of the six vocals and followed by their dub counterpart. Tooney Roots works with analogue equipment and vintage sound effects built by himself, and the soundscape on the dub versions is hypnotizing and deliciously monotonous.
