Review: This is the essential Elephant Man album, which draws together all the big tunes from the self-proclaimed "Energy God".

Review: Ahead of the Jungle Cake's third Welcome To The Jungle collection, Deekline drops two of the album's many heaters; Soulfire soulstress Sara Lugo gets the Jamie Bostron treatment as he retains the warm tones and emotional sentiments of the original while applying a slick rolling breakbeat. Looking for a heavier skanker? Flip for Ed Solo and Stickybuds' bass-flecked twist on the unavoidable Sizzla. Underpinned with a juicy bassline, Sizzla's urging lyrics and the dreamy melodica are both kept in check as we roll deeper into the dance. That's living alright.

Review: Here comes one of three new roots singles which are 7" only releases. They come from French label Irie Ites and call upon vocalists Turbulence, Spectacular, Fantan Mojah and Lutan Fyah, but first up are Sizzla and Glen Washington. The rhythms have been produced by Jericho and first off is Sizzla is the leggy 'Sow More Love.' It rides an archetypal drum line that undulates slowly with warm bass and has great mic work over the top that is all about positivity. On the reverse is the dub versions by Glen Washington, renamed 'Liar Liar' and with some gorgeous female backing vocals.
