Finally, a featured release by one of America's pioneering voices in all dub and bass music categories.

Producer and vocalist JuaKali impresses both industry and audiences across dub, reggae, dancehall, bhangra, electronic, and experimental music styles. His first solo release, Breakground, on Gunjah Records/Foreign Familiar shows the tremendous range and energy JuaKali brings to live shows all over the world. With producers Badawi, Secret Agent Gel, Shamaji, and Syncro, Breakgound brings together JuaKali's fresh international style with dub, dubstep, and electronic genres. JuaKali makes political comments and promotes harmony.

The first single from Breakground, 'Revolution Now', calls for change in a new way: it celebrates community and cooperation as the roots of justice and peace. Drawing on over fifty years of history of dub music, the track is for many types of fans. It brings together classic skank, dub riddem, and bass melody with current samples, echo and effects. The vocal track masterfully balances analog warmth and digital edge. With a DJ-friendly format, this track excites dance floors all over the world!

JuaKali lives Brooklyn, but was born in Trinidad. He has traveled the world in recent years working with cutting edge artists and performing. In 2006, after his FIFA World Cup performance, EGO Magazine called JuaKali an artist "on the forefront of the Reggae, Jungle and burgeoning Dubstep scene in the US and around the world." Since then, JuaKali joined on tracks from Alpha & Omega, Raz Mesani, Pinch, Dub Gabriel and others. JuaKali is a host and resident at the premier dubstep event in the US, Dub War, in New York City. The New York Times reviewed this event in print in January of 2008. JuaKali also brings his talent to Sub Swara, another leading DJ/performance hybrid night based in NYC.
