As its regular plays on Rimmerama will have demonstrated to CR listeners, "Mash Down" is the best reggae/ragga track we've heard for many a long year. Impossible to adequately describe, suffice to say it's a frantic tempoed track with a wonderfully monotone voice chanting "Holy trinity/One day we will be free" before the relentless chorus "Mash it up, shake it up, break it up, spiritual breakdown." A manically sublime concoction. Nothing else here quite makes those heights, though the slow, sinuous "Hold On", "Your Name" with a soulful female singer exhorting us to worship and the chaotic "Launch De Attack" all have their moments. Here's hoping somebody picks up distribution for the stunning 11 men and women righteous posse soon, for this is gospel roots music of invigorating freshness.
