Swedish Reggae Artist Etzia Breaks New Ground (@EtziaMusic @Partillo_prod)

Posted on April 13, 2015 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

Swedish Reggae singer Etzia who has done collaborations with Charly Black, Future Fambo, Lutan Fyah and Collie Buddz recently partnered with Partillo Production on her latest EP entitled ‘Chapter Done.’ Both individuals have worked ceaselessly to create a unique sound that many are saying is a whole new genre. It is a collection of tropical vibrations mixed in with some Nordic elements. To hardcore Reggae fans it is reminiscent of dub, roots and house all in one. They are calling this new sound Traphall.

Persons familiar with Traphall says it is properly defined as a music which consists of reggae, dancehall, hip hop and electro. When asked why they have decided to focus on this genre for ‘Chapter Done’, Partillo says “this type of original sound is needed to satisfy Etzia’s vocal expression”.

‘Chapter Done’ is produced by some very established musicians and producers (based in Europe), namely Partillo, Mastah L and Nils Dahl. The EP is available on ITunes now; persons may download it at https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/chapter-done-ep/id972474872 and DJs can send an email to mariajacksonent@gmail.com for a promotional copy.

Assassin AKA Agent Sasco and Lt. Stitchie to collaborate on new music (@AgentSasco @kingstitchie)

Posted on April 10, 2015 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

Two of Dancehall’s most lyrical artists Assassin and Lt. Stitchie will be in the studio in the coming weeks to finish up a single they have been working on for a while now. The song which will be featured on Stitchie’s album (scheduled to be released this summer) asked the question, ‘If you could be a man in the Bible who would you be?’

Both artists will use men and women from the Bible as references for how they think we should be behaving now. Persons should not be fooled by the subject matter of the song, the Governor is going extremely hard on this record and no one has to question Assassin’s lyrical potency especially when he is dealing with substantive subject matters.
