Go listen to this new album It's a good one !! This is not my favorite. But, I like most of the songs ! As a musician, I can appreciate the work and the musical aspect and of course the message !!! But for instance , when I'm listening to a LP from the 70's. Even though, the musical arrangements are complicated, I've sometimes, the impression "to be directly with the musicians in the studios with a ruff and rootsy style".

This is what I miss about this album. The mixing and mastering are really good. "But as most of the music from 2014 : It's maybe to perfect" ... I'm waiting to hear the live versions of the songs ... I guess it will be more sober and powerful still

Humbly, I like my drumming on this video : It's very hard to do a good mix when, you have two different drums on the same track with a basic hardware ... There is a lot of reverb when I'm recording ... Sometimes, I find my snare drum to heavy and not well tuned.

I hope you'll enjoy, I did a groovier version of "Jah Defend the Music" on the 6/8 part, with more ghost notes. And, a better end. But, the reggae part is nice on this one. :)
