About
Bring old skool back
Lyrics
Crackle on the dial… static… tuning in…
This is the pirate wave… late night… from the tower block shadows…
Big up the massive if yuh locked on…
From the ends where the bass reign
We transmit the pain and the gain
Of frequencies that crack the pavement
Jungle fever in the basement
Amen loop spinning like a curse
Breakbeat soldiers, we disperse
Into the dance, into the dark
Where the real ones leave their mark
Rewind!
Selecta wheel it, feel the pressure build
Ragga chat fi di gyal dem, di bwoy dem get killed
By the flow, by the raw, by the soundclash law
Step correct or get left on the floor
Grime in the spit, 2-step in the feet
Hardcore till the daylight creep
Through the blinds of the warehouse rave
Where we used to misbehave
Back when it was free… no guestlist, no fee
Just sweat, bass and unity
Mi seh forward ever, backward never
Soundbwoy get buried, we do it forever
Pirate signal cutting through the fog
Dodging the feds on the rooftop job
High rise transmission, needle in the groove
Bass so heavy make the whole place move
Like the old days… late 90s bite
Early 00s fire still burning bright
In the chest of every junglist who
Remember when the scene was true
Big up!
You with the weak chat, step off the stage
This is warrior territory, we engage
Lyrical warfare, no rules apply
Raw aggression in the eye
Of the storm… the sub that vibrates
Your soul till it elevates
To the plane where only the true
Can stand the weight of the crew
Test if you want but you know the result
We don’t play… we insult
The fake, the commercial, the watered down
We keep the underground crown
Jump up if yuh feel the call
Drum and bass massive standing tall
From Bow to Brixton, Hackney to the ends
The sound system shaking the friends
Of the bass… the break… the chat
Old school pirate and that’s that
Sampling the past to flip the future
But the roots stay strong, the culture nurture
Every rewind, every wheel
Every soundboy who know the real
Forward!
The party don’t quit when the sun rise
We still in the dance with the red in our eyes
Energetic… aggressive… pure
No polish, no cure
For the fever that grip the dancefloor
Bodies skanking, begging for more
Of the riddim that roll like a wave on the shore
Crashing… smashing… demanding the war
Against the silence… against the tame
We the resistance… we speak the name
Of the underground… the forbidden sound
That keep the massive locked down
Crackle… fading… but the signal stay live…
Big up the junglist crew…
The garage skankers…
The grime soldiers…
The ragga soundbwoys…
We still here.
Rewind fi the massive.
