TURN UP THE HEAT: BANTON & RIVERSIDE MUZIK’S DROP A DIGITAL REGGAE SALUTE
Some tunes exist purely to move you. Turn Up The Sound, the electric new release from reggae sound system MC Eddy Banton on Barcelona’s Riverside Muzik, is exactly that. Heavy basslines, crisp drums, and uplifting vibes carry the track. From the first beat, this one means business.
Eddy Banton roots the track firmly in the digital reggae sound of the 1980s, that era of rhythmic muscle and forward-thinking studio craft, yet the production feels unmistakably alive today. Turn Up The Sound bridges decades with grace and confidence.
That is a genuine achievement, and Banton carries it with ease.
Behind the desk sits Likkle Sergiote, a producer with deep roots in Spain’s reggae underground. He mixes and masters with real authority, sculpting every frequency with precision: clarity up top, weight in the low end, and warmth running throughout.
The result carries the DNA of a seasoned artist who understands exactly what a powerful stack demands.
PURE VIBES, REAL CULTURE AND A DEEP LOVE FOR THE SOUND SYSTEM
Released through Barcelona-based Riverside Muzik Production, a label committed to authentic roots and dub reggae, Turn Up The Sound is built for late-night sessions. It carries a simple but vital message: pure vibes, real culture, and a deep love for the sound system.
It plays, and that is more than enough.
