<\/a>A long awaited day by me has come \u2013 my speakers play the new Kanka album. Yes, it\u2019s been almost 3 years Since the last release, so the appetite is huge. The artist serves us 12 heavy, consistent compositions with 3 amazing vocalists. The album is opened by \u201eVenus Dub\u201d \u2013 here I felt like I have actually had a journey to this planet, but we quickly get back to the earth thanks to Echo Ranks, who\u2019s in very good shape. He sings about troubles and worries of each of us. That tune is from cycle \u201eI have heard it before\u201d In the lyric layer, but musically Kanka crushes me hard, especially with the bassline. The next tune doesn\u2019t slow down \u2013 \u201eGhost Dub\u201d reminded me of killer \u201eScratchy\u201d, in \u201eLondon\u201d the winds nicely fit into the tough, dark dub close to the style of Iration Steppas. \u201eStraight Dub\u201d and \u201e37\u201d are steppers that make you skank hard. That\u2019s how we get to the next track with El Fata as a guest. I have a fondness for him and his dub vocals, and his chat is just briliant. Thereafter \u201eRainbow Dub\u201d and again heavenly winds which I love in reggae and dub \u2013 i deliquesce in such sounds to get strength and carry the burden of every-day reality. Additionaly, hearing crowning ideally integrated like Kanka did charges me fully. That album is merciless for the listener \u2013 in a good way of course \u2013 and it\u2019s caused by the last two tunes: \u201eStepperstyle\u201d again with Echo Ranks. It shows that the vocalists gets back to shape because (in my opinion) he lost it in few last tunes. Finally, we have \u201eWe love bass\u201d \u2013 the title itself says a lot \u2013 Kanka loves bass and he knows how to use it well. It won\u2019t be an overstatement if I say that it\u2019s the best album of that French warrior!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
