Description
Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Horace Martin was just 20 years old when he stepped into Channel One Studio to record the track "Me Rule" in 1974. At the time he was building his name locally, performing in clubs and talent shows around the city while cutting sides in Kingston's vibrant studio scene. "Me Rule" captures that moment perfectly - youthful confidence over a deep, steady rhythm. This record earned it's place among the deepest collectors: Proper rootsy dancefloor reggae that feels just as good today as it did when it first came out of Kingston. On the flip, things open up with a dubbed-out version of the rhythm titled "Rule," credited to Prince Huntly. Stripped back, the dub extends the track - echo, percussion, and bass doing the work.As always, PANORAMA Records continues it's search for overlooked gems from across the globe - records with history, character, and real musical weight. Carefully remastered and brought back on 7inch, this is another example of these records finding their way back to the turntable.
