MOD X / Hain Teny - 'Relegalize'

It’s been a long time but it’s been worth the wait for the latest from Ice & Spice Records, the new digital release is a collaboration between MOD X and Hain Teny.

MOD X / Hain Teny - Relegalize

Please note this is an old page and Fly Global Music has now moved. Please follow this link and search for the entry in the new site.

There’s no time to linger on the lack of reggae in Medeski, Scofield, Martin & Wood’s version of Pete Tosh’s classic, ‘Legalize It’ as this Serbian/German/Portuguese/French link up gets up on a Shabba tip to ‘Relegalize’.

This is a great dancehall-break-hip hop-dancehall track that goes well with Seed’s last single ‘Thing’ with Saïan Supa Crew from Paris (see the MOD X guide to Paris).

However, it’s that b-boy MOD X who gets the prize with the scratchin’, rappin’n’skankin’ remix. You know we love those big horns and all that’s missing is a proper dub.

MOD X is still working on his album but also watch out for a remix of ‘Could Be’ by our favourite co-op in Canada, Solidaze and something called ‘Spit’ by Tarmen of No Nine Recordings.

‘Relegalize’ is another download only release but hopefully, with our support, it will lead to a proper vinyl 12”. What is your chances of a dub in a Babylon?

Other reviews:
Paul Jackson / FREAKIN RADIO UNDERGROUND WEB BEATS
The original mix has a great summer feel to it — great vocals and just the right amount of brass to bring out the sunshine vibe. This will sound excellent on a fat sound system! The Mod X remix toughens up the beats nice and uses some great sounds to beef up the vibe. The vocals work really well in the remix and I can see this been a great release for Ice & Spice.
JON Political SunKENNEDY / Grand Central — Tru Thoughts: ACE!!!!!!!
CAY TAYLAN / Couch Records: Super remix for HAIN TENY!
