Bob Marley 'Roots, Rock, Remixed'

bob marley.jpg

Reggae legend Bob Marley is being reintroduced to a new generation with remixes of some of his older Roots Reggae tracks. Today’s hottest producers –including Afrodisiac Sound System, Jimpster (Jamie Odell), Yes King (Rhys Adams & Mark Rae), Trio Elétrico (Boozoo Bajou), Fort Knox Five and DJ Spooky have remixed a dozen of Marley's cherished roots songs.

Roots, Rock, Remixed balances that fine line of being respectful to the inimitable artist Marely was, even while using the bass-heavy, digital technologies available to us today. Nothing of the gorgeous, analog originals (including classics like “One Love,” “Trenchtown Rock,” and “Lively Up Yourself”) is lost in translation.
