The brand new, much-anticipated, second album from reggae master Prince Fatty.



Renowned sound engineer and record producer Mike ‘Prince Fatty’ Pelanconi has been a prominent member of the reggae and dub scene in the UK since the mid 90s. Finding himself frustrated by the tempos and mixes of certain records he loved - typified by DJing onetime after Don Letts who had already played half his selection - he set about recording his own versions with a supergroup of London’s finest reggae musicians.



As well as versions of favorite reggae and soul songs, two tracks stand out - Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s ‘Shimmy Shimmy Ya’ and ‘Insane in the Membrane’ by Cyprus Hill.



The vocal line-up also include Slits singer Hollie Cook and features a dub of ‘That Very Night’ from her own album to be released in 2011. Prince Fatty’s 2007 debut album ‘Survival Of The Fattest’ achieved widespread critical acclaim from the music press and was supported across BBC Radio, resulting in a raucous live session on Mark Lamarr’s show. Favoring recording on vintage equipment to preserve his signature sound; Pelanconi’s unique style has attracted the likes of Manu Chao, Unkle, Lily Allen, Graham Coxon, Gregory Isaacs and Little Roy to work with him.
