El Michels Affair Meets Liam Bailey - Ekundayo Inversions Vinyl LP New
There has always been a Reggae influence in the music of El Michels
Affair. From their cover of “Hung Up On My Baby” done in a Reggae style,
to the general sound and approach that permeates Leon’s production
style. While recording Bailey’s 2020 Ekundayo album, they did some
straight forward reggae tunes inspired by different eras alongside some
modern R&B tracks that would fit more comfortably next to Frank
Ocean than Jacob Miller. It is this same notion that old and new can
live so comfortably together that birthed the idea of Ekundayo
Inversions.
Traditional dub came out of reggae in the late 60s and early 70s when
pioneers like King Tubby and Lee Perry started taking the multi track
recordings of songs and running them back through the board adding
effects and additional instrumentation. These recordings are called
“dubs” or “versions” and are typically instrumentals with flourishes of
vocals from the original tracks.
