Rubi Dan & Juxci, “Bashment Funky” MP3
We were reading our friend Erin’s dancehall blog out of Kingston and thinking about pizza and reggae when, gazoing, this track rather appropriately dropped in our lap in a giant flame of fire. It’s theme song of sorts for the emerging bashment/funky mind-meld with the eponymous title and chorus, proffered by London’s Rubi Dan of The Heatwave, and Juxci. Apparently it is on the Bop riddim which we cannot confirm, but we CAN confirm that it is binoculars and has lasers on it.

Gabriel Heatwave’s UK Funky Bashment Mixtape MP3
It was only a matter of time before the hottest dance music in London, with its African influences and syncopated jangling, began drifting into reggae territory. On Gabriel Heatwave’s mix for XLR8R, he shows exactly how made for each other UK funky house and bashment are with a vast selection of Jamaica’s hottest deejays (i.e. our girl Natalie Storm, above) and Britain’s most solid emerging funky scions. Not to go heavy on the “heatwave” references but this mix is extra hot fire, let’s face it, you always wanted to hear “Ramping Shop” interpolated with DJ Shredda’s garage-esque synth stabs. Tracklist after the jump.
