Sound System Champions

repress! the trio meld reggae, dancehall, ska, dub, soul and soca in such an authentic way it sounds as if they were born and bred jamaicans, not scotsmen. while this is their debut album, mungo's hi-fi have been vibing out and skanking up dance floors with their own productions since 2001. 'sound system champions' is a highly polished debut and each song feels crafted with passionate consideration. instead of diluting the potency of their muse by applying the newest synthesis technique or related uber production wankery, the focus is in on building the raw elements of each song, which is what lends the album such an accomplished sound. guests include ranking joe, tippa irie, kenny knots, soom t, marina p and more.
