RCola "WKDRDM"
(Wikkid Records)
"Montreal-based dj/producer RCola, best known for his 12" vinyl releases, remixes and bombastic DJ sets, gathers together a dozen of his cuts for a cohesive, fully licensed album of proper dancehall and reggae influenced d'n'b.
WKDRDM boasts some serious collabs: London's Transglobal Underground offer their "Dancehall Operator" for remix, Paris/New York MC Jamalski contributes the frenetic "Skimalja" (with Aiwa chanteuse Severine), and RCola retools the classic "My Conversation" by legendary Jamaican vocalist Jimmy Riley (who also recorded with The Wailers and Sly & Robbie).
Labelmates Aiwa and Bass Nacho contribute beats and vocals respectively as RCola's polished production aesthetic and highly musical ear is evidenced throughout."
(Steve Lalla, Hour.ca)
In the studio, RCola has worked with many classic reggae singers including: Sister Nancy, Johnny Osbourne, Jimmy Riley, and Junior Reid as well as Top Cat, Jamalski, Belle Humble, Bigg Triggs, Bass Nacho, and Severine & Swank (from the French group Aiwa).
Well known for his junglized remixes and invigorated vocal rollers, RCola's discography now includes over 20 vinyls & five CDs on labels such as Royal Crown, JungleXpeditions, Wikkid, Humble, Chopstick Dubplate, Jungle Royale, and Intune Ragga Sessions.
15 European countries have been host to RCola's soundsystem throwdowns over the last five years, including shows where he has played alongside Ray Keith, Nicky Blackmarket, Digital, Social Security, TeeBee and Remarc in support of his dubwise jungle sound.
