Midnite Band: “Mongst I & I” (I Grade Dub) Exclusive Download & Video | Large Up!



Here’s another exclusive from the elusive Midnite collective. In anticipation of King’s Bell–the Virgin Islands-based crew’s first full-length album recorded in Jamaica (at the hallowed Tuff Gong studio) with a Jamaican producer (Andrew “Bassie” Campbell)– they have let off this special I Grade dub of the album’s first single “Mongst I & I” (for which they’ve also just made their first music video ever). Taking the haunting melody into the heart of the echo chamber, the version excursion only enhances the spiritual and trance-inducing qualities that have made Midnite’s live shows the stuff of island legend.

Listen or download below and vibrate on…

Midnite’s first single off of the upcoming “Kings Bell” album – a highly anticipated collaboration with Jamaican producer Andrew Bassie Campbell, featuring legendary musicians such as Earl Chinna Smith, Leroy Horsemouth Wallace, Lloyd Obeah Denton, Sticky Thompson, Wilburn Squidly Cole and others. Available as a digital single EP featuring the music video, 2 remixes and a dub mix on 9/27/11. Kings Bell full album coming 11/1/11.

Music video co-produced & edited in St. Croix by Michael Nissman of Aqua Media www.aquamediacompany.com.
