Mungo’s Hi Fi meet Kenny Knots – Brand New Bangarang (SCOTCH BONNET)
Available here on LP, here on CD
Scotland’s Mungo’s Hi Fi Sound are known worldwide for their distinctive post-industrial take on reggae and dancehall. Where many UK digital contemporaries were following the roots of Jah Shaka, it’s easy to imagine them as young Glaswegians more intrigued by the computer sounds of say, Jammys. An audible influence on Mungo’s Tom Tattershall’s productions is clearly London’s Unity Sound, run by Robert “Selector Ribs” Fearon in the mid to late 80s. And for Mungo’s fourth long-format issuing, they have teamed with one of Unity’s microphone alumni and their own most crucial collaborators - Kenneth Wright AKA Kenny Knots - for a mini LP/extended EP where he takes centre stage.
