Club Yeke returns with our 3rd offering on the label - and we’re back bigga and badda than ever with 4 track EP Full Circle - celebrating the crucial elements of Dancehall and Jungle in modern Soundsystem and riddim culture. For this one we’ve teamed up with London based producer Kouslin - a long time Yeke favourite and friend, with a genuine love for all corners of club music and their origins, and two absolute powerhouse MC’s: Riko Dan and Warrior Queen, with a remix from Jungle supremo Tim Reaper.

Following on from his 2020 techno dancehall release on Livity Sound, Kouslin continues to explore the rich history of sound system music and the developments in sound between the Caribbean and UK on the Full Circle riddim.

Riko has long been an MC who refuses to be boxed into any one genre, his signature Yardie Flow brings a JA energy to any style he jumps on, with a unique ability to join the dots between Grime, Dubstep, Dancehall, Jungle, Club and everything in between. Riko absolutely merks the Full Circle Riddim on ‘Dem Nah Want It’ and reminds us why he continues to be one of the baddest in the game.

Warrior Queen has one of the most distinctive voices around, a vocal force within so many scenes who’s worked with a bag of eclectic producers from the global underground. She’s linked up with Kouslin on ‘Mop Stick’, bringing a playful but stylishy aggressive take on the Full Circle Riddim and we’re still pinching ourselves that we managed to get her on this project.

Jungle is one of our first loves, so it made total sense to get Tim Reaper on remix duties, a part of the newer generation of Jungle heads keeping the genre fresh and exciting through his electric productions and DJ sets. His twist on Full Circle is a high speed, super fun, maximum energy rendition that we can’t wait to hear on a club soundsystem. Full Circle is all about rejoining the dots between the huge imprint that the Caribbean has made on Black British identity, and the exciting future that lies ahead.
