Wicked new material from Roots Manuva and producer Wrongtom. ‘Jah Warriors’ is the one-off lead single from the forthcoming Big Dada album where Wrongtom remixes selected tracks from each of Manuva’s main studio albums, plus ‘Dub Come Save Me’ and ‘Alternately Deep’. Together with vocal spar Ricky Ranking, Roots is in top form, but he’d be less so without Wrongtom’s ace riddims, from the drowsy Caribbean steppers vibe of the title cut, to the dutty wine of ‘Bashment Bogle’ and his tidy digidub mix of ‘Buff Nuff’.

With artwork from the legendary Tony McDermott (who was responsible for the illustrations on Greensleeves classics by the likes of Scientist, Mad Professor and the famous “Carnival of Reggae” 12” sleeve) it’s a thing of beauty.
