I left London with plenty ideas in my head beats basslines etc Infact I sat in the airport lounge on my ipod for hours as the flight was delayed 4 hours to be exact and listened to all sorts of tunes to do when I landed. I think out of all of those ideas I have done one of them in nearly a year The main reason for this is that any one in the business that goes to Jamaica to record can vouch for me when I say ... 2010-8-10 15:39:06 http://www.necessarymayhem.com/page3.htm#60443 English Producer Scores Big with Etana Kingston Jamaica March 12 2010 London based producer Curtis Lynch of Necessary Mayhem Records is riding high from the buzz of August Town a song that he produced for the soulful Reggae crooner Etana. Although Etana has a wealth of redhot Reggae music on the rise August Town has exploded in Europe. August Town the lead single on Lynchs Inner City Lady riddim propels Etana outside of her soulinfused rootsy style of music introducing her to dubwise a subgenre of Reggae that is heavy on drum bass and dub effects with very sparse rhythm. Based on the overwhelming response to August Town in Europe its clear that the Curtis LynchEtana combination could possibly result in a number one song. To further display the success of August Town in Europe the single has touched down on numerous charts including dubvendor Englands Choice FM soundquake Germany and Riddim Germany. Additionally many Radio and club DJs through out Europe find August Town to be a ... 2010-3-13 18:05:22 http://www.necessarymayhem.com/page3.htm#47878 September already... Well that means playtime is over and the new release on Necessary Mayhem is coming... The Come Down Riddim is definatly one of the most highly anticipated releases that we have had on the label to date maybe its the track with Tippa Irie or the return of Papa Levi or the combination with Million Stylez amp Joey Fever out of Sweden perhaps its the BBC Artiste of last year Mr Williamz or Maybe its the legendary Pinchers... I personally think its all of them but i guess im biased.Come Down by Super Cat was released in November 1998 and has remained a dancehall classic to this date for djs and mcs alike and thats why I choose this riddim to cover. At Tippa Iries Talk The Truth launch in late 2007 I witnessed him and the rest of the Saxon family rip into the dub of that tune and it just has an energy about it which djs gravitate to. I built this the Come Down in early December of 2008. Police In Helicopter by Million Stylez and Babylon In Helicopter by Mr Williamz was ... 2009-9-1 11:57:26 http://www.necessarymayhem.com/page3.htm#43039 After much thought and research phone calls and conversations I decided to come to Jamaica to do some recording for the label and also tighten links and make new ones. In the past I have come here and wasted time spent money on rubbish and been generally disappointed but I really think that when I am asked what tune really put Necessary Mayhem on the map I would have to say it was Champion Sound because this tune brought me to Gussie Clarke one of the most respected Producers label and studio owners in the business and also to vp and greensleeves records who between them control a huge chunk of the reggae industry worldwide.This is my last night here and I have to say im sad Very sad to leave as this has been my best work trip to Jamaica for many a year. Not only did I get to hang out and record with some top artist but I also produced in the legendary Anchor studio mixed tunes at steven Stanley studio played overdubs for a track on the new Tarrus Riley Album which is unbelievable an... 2009-6-9 18:37:03 http://www.necessarymayhem.com/page3.htm#40871 THE KING MIXING WITH BUNNY LEE... MURDER... 2009-5-1 13:00:16 http://www.necessarymayhem.com/page3.htm#40761 Well when we first started this site I had no intention at all of starting a blog until last week when I picked up the new Joker Smoker Ridim from the pressing plant.To my horror the record labels were the wrong way around on both 7 records so let me explain The label that had Ziggi Joker Smoker on it was actually Mr Williamz No Cigarette... So what did you do you ask No point in being vex and cussing whats done is done so I called one of my distributors whose reply to my question was No mate it aint gonna work with the wrong labels on. Im afraid your gonna have to find away to fix it I went to staples bought 2 boxes of A4 labels a paper trimmer ink for the printer and 4 red bull and after 4 days they were all done and stuck on the right records with the titles and artist name with the help of my paps and brother I might add. Funny thing about it was that I was mad pd off at the start but caught so much joke with my family while sticking the damn labels over the titles. Im very excit... 2009-4-29 16:30:23
