haste Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 http://tarzan.spoox.org/display.php?type=r...elease&id=15269 the tunes are "produced by Musclehead and Dillie" not sure where you got the artists for on the b side. it's listed as "Various Artists" and the songwriting credits go to L Francis, Desert Storm, G Degree, H Griffiths, J Reid, Aswad. so i guess that's where some of the names come from. I think that the artists should really be Musclehead and Dillie, the other names are just where it's all sampled from. Kinda hard to know what to do with this one really as the artists they list are just there for legal reasons (i presume) as they must have tried to clear all the samples (being a big sound and prob knowing a lot of these people) Saxon is owned by Musclehead who is from London, UK more info here... http://www.daintycrew.com/saxon.htm ps that is a cool site for ragga related stuff, loads of info on people inc real names etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haste Posted April 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 Not sure if this was ever changed but it looks to still be incorrect. The tracklist should be A1: Musclehead & Dillie (Feat. Dennis Brown) - Whip DemA1: Musclehead & Dillie (Feat. Dennis Brown) - Whip Dem (Mix II)B: Musclehead & Dillie - Jungle Sax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ornette Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 OK not sure this is correct. This is some sort of jungle remix of Dennis Brown "Whip Them Jah" with dubplate lyrics ("soundboys them a weeping" instead of "babylon them a weeping") An earlier post on this tells us that the two producers you mention are Lloyd 'Musclehead' Francis & Carl 'Dillie' Perry, reggae producers for Saxon sound As a jungle remix I doubt they had any involvement other than 'executive producers' and that Desert Storm is the true producer (by our terms) The B side is more confusing. The writing credit suggest Lloyd Francis, General Degree, Hugh Griffths, Junior Reid & Aswad. But this is a plain jungle track, with some reggae/ragga vocal samples - such as: "saxon sound are the don in the dancehall" The label does say Dennis Brown feat. Desert StormSo... http://www.rolldabea..._records/sax015 Artist: Dennis Brown & Desert StormTitle: Whip Dem / Jungle Sax A1. Dennis Brown (feat. Desert Storm) - Whip DemA2. Dennis Brown (feat. Desert Storm) - Whip Dem (Mix II)B. Desert Storm - Jungle Sax If the new database can handle it then indeed I suggest we add: Executive Producers: Lloyd 'Musclehead' Francis & Carl 'Dillie' PerryWriting Credits:(A1, A2) Dennis Brown, Lloyd 'Musclehead' Francis, Desert Storm(B1) Lloyd 'Musclehead' Francis, Desert Storm, General Degree, Hugh Griffths, Junior Reid & Aswad and Desert Storm is Carl De Junglist...

Logic Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Your reasoning is sound enough, but it bears mentioning that Whip Dem has some of the worst-looped drums I've ever heard in a jungle tune. Wouldn't be unthinkable if that were the result of a couple reggae producers trying their hand at jungle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haste Posted October 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Will have to get round to making the edits on this later but I like the idea of allowing writing credits etc. on tunes. I'll look into building that in, shouldn't be too tricky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haste Posted October 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 OK, I've put in the writing credits stuff http://rolldabeats.c...-whip_dem_mix_1 Does that work, you reckon? The only other thing I've added in there right now is info for who engineered the tune but there aren't any records in the database for this yet. WHen I have a few spare mins I'll go through this lot and add the info http://rolldabeats.c...showtopic=37275 A couple here http://www.rolldabeats.com/track/9762/suburban_knights-as_it_grooveshttp://www.rolldabeats.com/track/83243/suburban_knights-state_of_art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
