You listen to it once, you like it. You listen to it twice,\u00a0you love it. And so on!<\/p>\n

DJ, Producer and leader of the group\u00a0<\/span>\u00ccF\u00c9\u00a0Otura Mun\u00a0<\/span>reshape 2017 Dancehall smash hit “Humbug Riddim”. Originally produced by ZJ\u00a0Chrome, this version get’s reworked and revoiced by Mun to fit the vibe of the original juggling while cranking up the BPM’s just a bit.<\/span><\/p>\n

Otura Mun is obsessed by modern Jamaican Dancehall. Most of\u00a0\u00a0the music he listen to, study, and love enough to be obsess over fall into traditional Afro-percussive styles, \u00a0Cuban rumba and Bat\u00e1-rumba*. “I follow it religiously and just absolutely love everything about the genre. The singers, DJs, producers, sound systems, dancers… I’m all eyes and ears, all the time”, <\/em>says Otura Mun.<\/p>\n

And one of his favorite riddims to drop last year was\u00a0ZJ Chrome’s Humbug Riddim. The riddim featured famous artists like Vybz Kartel on the song ‘So What’ and Mavado\u00a0on ‘Careless Gal’, a song\u00a0played like a hundred times last summer told us Otura Mun.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

In the process\u00a0Mun went into the studio to recreate the riddim by itself. He bumped it up a couple BPM’s and changed up a couple things to fit to his own vibe. He added a totally new vocal version of UMBO over the rework of the riddim and\u00a0the result is\u00a0unique, drawing through multiples inspirations.\u00a0\u00a0Once again, Mun\u00a0continues\u00a0to push things forward.<\/p>\n
