Sadly the state of the world today is so that we still need songs like this. From the fantastic Jamaican vocalist Horace Andy comes this lament for the world. A genuine song in a dub livery. Make sure you listen on a system that can render the great bass lines with a force you can feel. Check out his Midnight Rocker album (2022) which was an instant favorite when I played it at home on a gray weekend morning.

When everything is the same and you can't find any change in an endless monotone landscape you would be bored to death. That is why people go to the sea or climb mountains. When there is an end, a cravasse, a feature which is unique there you will find mankind. We need something else to feel alive. I will give you La Muerte this week. Although the name sounds like they're a Latin band, they're definitely not. Do you know them? They have been a band from Brussels since 1983. And just like Brussels who gets its character by being squeezed between the Flemish, Walloon and European expat forces, these guys have been molded by many musical trends and influences. As a result, think blues meets heavy-metal, with some synth thrown for good measure. This is not for the fainthearted. But this does cleanse the soul.
