[LP] VA Rise Up - The Riz Records Story (Reggae Archive)

[Bristol Archive]

Natty has already mentioned our Capital Letters album, but before that we release "Rise Up - The Riz Records Story", a 15 track selection that showcases one of the best labels from the 1990s UK scene. Many of the tracks are exclusive discomixes and we've also included one previously unreleased and totally different mix and one entirely unreleased track, vocalists include Willie Willaims, Earl 16, Orville Smith, Admiral Tibet, Danny Red, Bob Skeng and Mikey Mystic. The sleeve notes feature an interview with Nick Manasseh and Gil Cang telling the label's story, it really is a fantastic compilation.

We have also included every track across two vinyl LPs and having played the test presses they are heavier than most 12"s, my colleague David Hill from Rootikal who compiled it with me personally supervised the cut and he's a perfectionist.

There will be limited edition blue and green vinyl copies, (100 only), available direct from our web site and vinyl and CD should be released 27th January.
