speng bond - empress / domino slims - my song (don't talk to me now)
Francisco Espregueira
From the depths of the obscure Jahtari spin-off Jahmiga comes a heavyweight Disco Dub 12", delivering two certified heaters that expertly explore the sweet spot between funk bass and echo-drenched soundscapes. Speng Bond takes command of the A-side with his track "Empress", weaving a grand, heart-shaped narrative. The UK dancehall veteran meshes his signature ragga-comedy flow with uplifting lo-fi jazz-funk vibes, creating a truly sexy anthem. This track is guaranteed to bring a big smile to faces and ignite reggae sound systems with its infectious energy and charm.
Flipping to the AA-side, the enigmatic voice of Domino Slims plunges listeners into a universally relatable scenario on "My Song (Don't Talk To Me Now)". Imagine this: your favorite tune drops, the bass starts thumping, and suddenly someone tries to interrupt the moment with idle chatter. The only possible response is "Don't Talk To Me Now!" as this epic, slap-bass-driven track hits the floor. Both heaters, produced by LA axe master Dubsworth and disrupt, also feature hypnotic dub cuts – groove-focused percussive workouts layered with mystical vocal haze from Kimchi Shocka and plenty of "Space Dust" sprinkled on top, making this another must-have release in the Jahtari discography. 12’’ vinyl edition is available on Bandcamp.
