Order CD: raslutazamowienia@gmail.com

Ras Luta and Pionear started working together exactly 15 years ago in February 2005, when recording for Poland’s first ever Reggae & Dancehall compilation “Polski ogień”, released by Warner Music Polska the following year. Followed by productions for Luta’s band project “EastWest Rockers” and his first solo effort “Jeśli​ ​Słyszysz” the both coming full circle now with an entirely custom made album played by Pionear’s studio band The Germaicans. You might ask why a Reggae album now? Because it’s not so much about trends and number of streams, but rather about two stubborn musical friends paying tribute to “their” music!

The release’s lyrics shed light on observations and experiences made by Ras Luta when looking at his musical career and general life. Thus the overall impetus is that of a “grown up” classic Reggae album. The title track “Lepsze dni” , “Masz w sobie siłę ft. Junior Stress”, “Dom w chmurach” all are vivid testament to Luta’s love for Roots Reggae and prove his excellent songwriting. Still the album holds surprises, with trappy “Zimny kamień” and of course the niyahbinghi-r’n’b-power-ballad-hybrid “Szadrach, Meszach & Abednego” and it’s unique ‘spiritual’ feel. 

The previously released singles “Stop”, “Rozdarty” carrying more of a pop song structure. The third single “Mój ogień” and “Jak na początku” are both relicks of Jamaican classic riddims. In case you wondered if there is an “off” track you should definitely check out the Two-Tone-Ska stomper “Szarzy ludzie”. Finally “Prosty rim” is not only a hommage to the glorious 90s in Dancehall music but also the new single which heralds the album release on February 21st 2020!

To seal what will be probably the most important Polish Reggae release of the year mastering was provided by platinum certified Sascha “Busy” Bühren (Peter Fox, Seeed) from Berlin / Germany.

The last Germaica release of the decade is as well the first official Mavado remix of a German producer to date. Furthering their remix catalogue The Germaicans studio band gave Mavado’s single “Life Blanket” a Reggae remix treatment, making the Gully Gad flow over a 90s inspired beat incorporating even mixes.

The result is Vado seeminlessly blending into the Reggae world. Beautiful keyboard lines compliment the hard working riddim section and saxophoniste Johanna Järemo’s licks put the icing on the cake leaving one with the wish for an entire Mavado Reggae album!

Exactly 20 years ago on 09/09/1999 GERMAICA was founded. We like to take the opportunity to thank everybody involved, all colleagues, artistes and producers who contributed, all people who supported the label and all sounds, DJs and Selectors who played and pushed our releases.

To celebrate label style we decided to re-release the complete back catalogue of MESSER BANZANI – the pioneering Ska & Reggae band from East Germany and predecessor of GERMAICA. It was this band where cousins and then vocalists PIONEAR & TOM started producing riddims and evolved the idea of building a platform for fellow artistes like GENTLEMAN to make their first steps and to support SEEED soon after. In case u never know it was MESSER BANZANI – renamed THE FAR EAST BAND – serving as backing band for the “Journey to Jah” years of the Cologne SingJay.

The MESSER BANZANI ANTHOLOGY consists of all 5 studio albums of the band plus a sixth volume with remixes, edits and bonus tracks. Enjoy this authentic piece of German Reggae history for the first time available in digital format for streaming and download!

Après “Nos coeurs sont liés”, découvrez le nouveau titre de Guive sur le label Germaïca France: “Hasard”. Guive nous livre un texte profond dans lequel il se questionne sur les synchronicités et les coïncidences que place la vie sur notre chemin et le sens qu’elles prennent dans notre histoire personnelle, affirmant ne plus croire au hasard… Cité par Reggae Vibes Magazine comme “un des chanteurs les plus talentueux du moment”, Guive est un chanteur / tromboniste dont les influences naviguent entre soul et reggae. Il est également le leader et fondateur du groupe Guive & the ORA.

“Hasard” fait partie du 2ème volet du projet porté par Germaica Digital qui a décidé d’étendre son activité de production d’artistes Reggae à travers une partie de l’Europe et notamment la France. Tout comme la précédente sur le “Warm up riddim”, cette nouvelle série  produite par Pionear & Fabi Benz sur le “Bridge riddim”, interprété par The Germaicans, regroupe plusieurs artistes européens dont Guive pour la France, Ras Luta pour la Pologne, Meli & Adi Amati pour l’Allemagne et Andy Mittoo pour l’Italie. C’est d’ailleurs à ce dernier que l’on doit le nom de ce nouveau riddim puisque son titre “Lì c’era un ponte” rend hommage à la ville de Gênes et de ses habitants suite au drame provoqué par l’effondrement du pont en août 2018.
