We made this waaaaay back in 2009 as an exclusive for our @xlr8r_official 'Funky Bashment' mix

Recently someone hit us up looking for a download and we thought it'd be fun to free up for Bandcamp Friday

hey @TheHeatwave do you remember what this is from this mix in 2008 i have been trying to track down a full length of whatever this remix is but i suspect it's a dub or a live blend? https://t.co/yekOuy9Yze

@TheRikoDan chatting “Riko’s Theme”

Our recent collab was inspired by 'Yardie', a British crime drama directed by Idris Elba, based on the classic book by Victor Headley 📖

Read the book, watch the movie but mostly listen to our tune 😜 🎶 ⬇️

This is our first ever Bandcamp Friday release. We hope you enjoy the music.

Since the pandemic shut down clubs and festivals we've spent thousands of hours building riddims and voicing artists and we're excited to finally start sharing our music with the world.
