Our Take
In a world where the sun rarely shines, Lee 'Scratch' Perry bursts through the clouds with his latest album, aptly titled "The Sun is Shining." This reggae legend shows no signs of slowing down, bringing his signature eccentricity and infectious beats to the forefront once again. From the moment the album kicks off with the title track, listeners are transported to a sun-soaked paradise where Perry's unmistakable voice reigns supreme. The production is impeccable, with the swirling dub effects and pulsating rhythms creating a sense of tension and release that is truly electrifying. Tracks like "Rainy Night Dub" and "Blackboard Jungle Dub" showcase Perry's prowess as a master of the genre, seamlessly blending elements of dub, reggae, and dancehall into a sonic tapestry that is as rich as it is irresistible. The decision to include remixes of classic tracks like "Exodus" and "Trenchtown Rock" only adds to the album's charm, giving longtime fans a fresh perspective on beloved tunes. But perhaps the most impressive aspect of "The Sun is Shining" is Perry's willingness to experiment and push boundaries. Tracks like "Cosmic Energy" and "Alien Dub" incorporate sci-fi elements and otherworldly soundscapes, creating a truly unique listening experience that is at once familiar and unexpected. Overall, "The Sun is Shining" is a triumphant return for Lee 'Scratch' Perry, proving once again why he is one of the most influential figures in reggae music. So grab your sunglasses, crank up the volume, and let the sunshine in with this essential summer soundtrack.
