Germaicans,
welcome to the February/March issue of the Germaican Observer!

What a start for the Germaican Jubilee Riddim "Messer Banzani"!
Within days Germaican took over the Top 3 of the Sales Charts of our new Distributor Sound Quake.
Also Capleton’s tune “Step 2 The Fire” went straight to the number 2 spot of the German Reggae Charts only prevented from the top spot through Damian Marley’s smash “Welcome To Jamrock”. Furthermore German veteran Deejay Dr. Ring-Ding's "Dancehallfieber" hits the number 16 and Cobra's debut on Germaican Records International "Gangster Role" the number 8 spot.
Reason enough to feature the baddest DeeJay of them all. Nadine talked with the Mad Snake about stolen hard drives, gay tunes and if ther’s a life after being a DeeJay.

Cologne based Soundsystem Kingstone put out their first riddim last year. The success of the "Señorita", (also part of the “Shining Stars Vol.3” compilation on Germaican Records International) encouraged the team to produce the follow-up called “The Truth”. Featured Artistes on the riddim include TOK, Gentleman, Mr. Easy, Lutan Fyah and Chico.
