♫ > A1. Tyrone Evans - Rise Up
♫ > B1. Wackies Rhythm Force - Version
One of Bullwackie's most niche and coveted uptempo jams, a true definition of disco reggae - a style the producer dabbled in more than once from his White Plains studio in the early 80s. As expected, the great reissue imprint DKR goes to absurd lengths here to unearth a completely lost version of this seminal dance floor bomb. Originally part of Tyrone Evans' incredible Lovers Rock LP on Wackies (which was reissued by NYCT on a 10-inch disco single in 2012, long since sold out:) and later slightly remixed for a Max Romeo rendition, this never before heard version is somewhere in between, and for all intents and purposes seems to have been mixed down by Wackie for a 12-inch single that would never see the light of day, ever. Until now, that is. The sound and mixing on this version is incredible, Wackies is in his bag 100%. This may be the definitive mix of the song in all its glory, and to have it on a 12-inch after all this time is a treat beyond comprehension. Don't sleep!
