Influenced by US Soul and the early Reggae and Rocksteady sounds from Jamaica aDUBta a producer and musician from Bavaria Germany linked up with Marcus I a Southern France notable songwriter and singer in the Roots-Reggae scene to create a collection of work inspired by the Studio One sounds of the 1960s. Following their debut 'CUT A WIRE Showcase' (Hornin' Sounds Records France - 2023) 'Marcus I meets aDUBta' kick off their next set of releases with this uplifting flying-cymbal-style 7-inch that's an automatic vibe setter and head nodder.

After nearly 20 years as a drummer for various Reggae bands aDUBta has recently dedicated himself entirely to the sound of '60s to early '80s Reggae. Gaining international attention as a producer with his debut album 'Sounds From The Attic' (released in 2023 through Oneness Records) aDUBta and musical collaborator Mauricio-Joran Ceseña (The Black Oak Roots Allstars) went back at it focused on recording a collection of riddim instrumentals at aDUBta's Attic Roots Studio. Then in February 2024 Marcus I joined aDUBta in Germany to write and record vocals and harmonies deeply showcasing his exceptional songwriting and distinctive voice which has resonated with every Roots-Reggae fan. For the final touch aDUBta polished the mixes and dubs entirely analog on his Tascam 388 mixing console and their first single 'Heavy Manners' from a new wave of releases was sent to press and is now ready for sound systems worldwide.
