Deadly Dragon Sound is proud to announce their latest re-issue: Horace Martin's monster tune ME RULE on the Modernize Music label. Originally released in 1985, ME RULE was produced by the man PRINCE HUNTLEY and the DUB was cut by Prince Tubby. ME RULE is a tune that lies at the crossroads of the major digital sounds of 1986 and the earlier roots inflected rub a dub of Channel One. Drawing power from both these genres, ME RULE has grown into an underground classic appealing to both the ROOTS STEPPERS crowd and the Digital heads. This reissue was taken directly from Prince Huntley's master tapes and contains the dub that was mixed by King Tubby himself. We here at Deadly Dragon thank Prince Huntley for allowing us the opportunity to share his wonderful music with the world.
Yes indeed -- get ready for the newest Deadly Dragon Sound reissue! For years Hugh Griffith's "JAH BIBLE" was a staple in our box -- his haunted vocals running rugged over one of the wickedest versions of CUSS CUSS made it the kind of BIG TUNE that when you play it, everyone in the spot rushes you to know what it is and if they can get a copy. Well, we recently ran into Prince Jazzbo and begged him to find the tapes of the tune so we could share it with the massive. He agreed and here it is! Cut directly from the master tapes and featuring a KILLER dub, we present HUGH GRIFFITH - JAH BIBLE! RUN CHUNE and get ready for the forward!!!!!!

First came DEADLY DRAGON INNA ROOTS STYLE and now we are coming with the big Part Two -- DEEJAYS INNA ROOTS STYLE. This CD is a celebration of the often overlooked power of seventies Roots DJs. In our opinion certain DJs in the 70s could take hold of a serious underground roots riddim and ride it to a place of pure consciousness just as well as any singer. So, we have put together a mix of 38 tracks by DJs like Bongo Gene, Jah Stitt, Big Joe, Prince Far I and more that had that perfect combination of driving riddim and ferocious vocals. From one track to the next, the power of the DJ grows and grows so we hope you enjoy this ya one! As always, our CDs are mixed live with 2 turntables, mixer and sound effects...absolutely no computer overdubs or edits.
