I purchased the album for the second track, "System" feat. Rider Shafique, which is an absolute banger both musically and in terms of lyrical delivery. The spirit of roots is still there in the modern era, and Rider is the one to prove it.
Favorite track: BABE ROOTS Featuring Rider Shafique.

After their much heralded debut on the label with last year’s Music Mission EP, Italian collective Babe Roots returns to V.I.V.E.K’s System Music with a brand new four track project entitled Through We EP.
The Torino-based producers have risen to prominence over the last half decade having crafted an authentic, sub-heavy dubwise sound which has been cut and pressed on labels such as ZamZam Sounds, Echocord & more.
This new project is unquestionably an extension on that sound and is delivered with exceptional execution. We open with title track Through We, an utterly immersive Dub Techno slice which glides and steps with maximum finesse, layered perfectly with the powerful vocals of Joseph Lalibela.
Next up comes System which picks up the tempo and features Bristol-based mic-man Rider Shafique whose profound voice and lyricisation rides the powerful stepping riddim which bounces out of the speakers in full force.
Flip the record and find It A Come, fully equipped with earth-shattering low-end, resonating reverberations and the deeply haunting vocals of Wayne & Galas, which is then finished perfectly with a profoundly stripped back ambient rework of the same track.

This record deserves your full attention. each track pushing you into labyrinthine streets, cluttered with haze filled underground clubs teeming with feral activity; cool respite from the planet’s baking surface. ticker_blimp

Once again, Commodo comes with a proper cinematic flex. Every track drips with drama and darkness. Great programming and sound design, as per usual. Lord Dubious
