sounding quite like nothing you have heard before, the excelsiors come correct with their debut album, control this. the latest project from shane ‘sureshot’ hunt, known for his sharpshooters group, and for his highly-regarded soundbwoy reggae breaks series wherein he has liberally dropped science, sharing his in-depth knowledge of ska, rock-steady, reggae and dancehall for the instruction of the hip-hop massive, the excelsiors is the logical extension of shanes passion for classic jamaican music (and more) of the 60s through 80s.

nu sound and version is an 11-track album of re-workings, re-mixes and re-recordings of tracks originally recorded by lee perry and produced by adrian sherwood and the on-u sound crew.

the histories of bbe music and the southport weekender have intertwined since day one. the first release on the label, stop & listen volume 1, was compiled by dr bob jones, the venerable uk selector who was for many years an integral part of southport s core of resident djs who helped shape the sound of the weekender scene.
