God Smiled [ The Moody Boyz Remix ] / Dub Take

First issued in May last year in a mad limited and high priced promo run which sold out in days, this monumental plate from the hugely influential On-U Sound label is now back in print due to unending demand, and this time at a standard pocket-friendly price to satisfy the masses.

Taken from Lee Perry’s latest Adrian Sherwood-produced album ‘The Mighty Upsetter’, ‘God Smiled’ is the first of a series of special remix 12”s, each of which will carry new rubs and re-dubs by some of today’s most in-demand studio dons, with every mans dem up on their “a”-game for this prestigious project. Leading the charge, Tony Thorpe’s bespoke heavyweight Moody Boyz makeover is an epic seven and a half minute excursion, stirring up a righteous echomania for the 21st century that sounds like a herd of rhinos brocking out to Fela’s Africa 70 horns with live sound mixed by… well, Adrian Sherwood.

Top dub vibes throughout and a rampaging instrumental version on the flip make up a potent dose for the bass addicted everywhere.incredible recent run of bespoke heavyweight Moody Boyz makeovers with an epic seven and a half minute excursion that puts his Amy and Erykah remixes flat back in their chairs, stirring up a righteous echomania for the 21st century that sounds like a herd of rhinos brocking out to Fela’s Africa 70 horns with live sound mixed by… well, Adrian Sherwood. Don’t front – this really is an eye-wateringly restricted pressing, and it WILL be mercilessly hunted down in baying packs by both obsessive On-U Sound acolytes and dubstep addicts alike. Likely to sell out in just about the time it takes to play both sides right through, you are advised in the strongest possible terms to place your orders without delay. That means right now, THIS VERY MINUTE. As I write, it’s in stock and available, but it won’t stay like that for much longer, as copies are being allocated hand over fist on a first-come-first-served basis. Tick tock… we dunn.
