Nappy Mayers & Nadie La Fond - Trini Disco Dubs [Sol Power Sound]

Sol Power Sound returns with a two-track EP of scorching (and rare) island disco, remixed by Bosq and the Sol Power All-Stars, that will make you forget summer is over. Officially licensed from the estate of Nappy Mayers, who wrote and produced both original tracks, these tracks capture Nappy’s exquisite sound that dominated the discos of Trinidad in the late 70s and early 80s but never received the international recognition it deserved.

Long-time label friend Bosq opens side A with his energetic take on Nadie La Fond’s Three Way Situation. With his classic yet understated style, Bosq adds just enough to enhance the captivating groove while maintaining the authentic essence of the original. Using both the vocal and dub parts, Bosq intensifies the funk and transforms the track into a scorching modern disco cut that works equally well on the beach, in a dark club, or at your favorite after-party.

On side B1, the Sol Power All-Stars present an extended disco dub of Nappy Mayers' 1980 track Let Yourself Go. The Sol Power team chooses to work with the b-side version of the original, omitting the lead vocal and focusing on the synth bass-led groove, an unforgettable chorus, and powerful disco horns. They add flute, guitars, and fragmented synths, creating a real party. And did we mention the percussion? Don't miss the massive soca break that will transport you directly to a carnival party in the islands.

Alongside the extended and remastered 12” versions of both original vocal cuts, Trini Disco Dubs highlights the genius of Nappy Mayers, a legendary Caribbean composer, producer, and performer, through the vision of modern producers at the peak of their careers.
