A powerful album of hidden roots/dub with a low-key rhythm produced by Loopy Edwards.
"Natty Plant It," produced by Loopy Edwards, is a DJ cut based on the riddim of "Jamaica Serenade" recorded by the All Stars, and is being re-evaluated as a single that stands out for its deep roots feel and dub processing from the 1975 recording.
"Natty Plant It" is a DJ tune based on the Rupie Edwards All Stars' "Jamaica Serenade" riddim, showcasing a simple narrative delivery with a distinctive tenacity. Edwards' signature thick bass provides the structure of the track, while his gentle vocals seamlessly intertwine with the riddim, adding a special allure. Despite its simple structure, the generous space of the performance creates depth, while the distinctive roughness of roots reggae from the era lends a pleasant impression. The B-side, "Natty Version Plant," is a dub that takes advantage of the range and adds spatial processing, highlighting the contours of the repetitive riddim. While a small piece with a sound system-friendly sound, it clearly conveys the appeal of Loopy's mid-'70s work.
