JUNIOR MILITANT 7" 45
OUT NOW
JUNIOR MILITANT 7" 45
DKR-004
PHILIP MYERS - GETHO STRUGGLE B/W VERSION
fully legit issue, high quality US pressing.
limited to 1,000 copies.
Digikiller is very proud to present the official reissue of one of the greatest digital tunes of the 1980's. Philip Myers released only a handful of tunes in the second half of the 1980's, and among them was this now very rare 45 from 1985. The lone release on Daniel Senior's Junior Militant label, based out of Seaview Gardens, Kingston 11, this tough digital cut features lyrics about babylon coming to mash up your dance. Arranged by Noel Davey (legend has it, before the release of sleng teng!), this tune perfectly captures the digital dancehall sound just being born, and proves yet again that so many killer tunes were bubbling under but never made it into the spotlight. Thankfully, this huge tune is now back on the street, rescued from rarity and obscurity, and ready to receive its due!
FOR WHOLESALE ORDERING INFORMATION, please email digikillerrecords at gmail dot com. the minimum order is 15 copies. for retail/individual sales, please visit any of the online shops linked on this page.

FREDDIE MCKAY - TAKE MY HAND OH JAH
b/w
NAGGO MORRIS - YOU WANT TO GET I OUT
fully legit issue from original materials, high quality US pressing.
limited to 500 copies.
We are very proud to present the first ever reissue of these two all-time top deep roots tunes, originally issued on two different 12"s by East Orange, NJ's own YAH CONGO label. Now paired together by DKR for one monstrous double-sider. dub heads take note: neither tune was originally issued with a full version side; both tunes are vocal into dub, originally released with other tunes on the b-side.
despite our name, we are not only digi-heads, and we are endeavoring to dig deep and work hard to resurrect the best of '70s roots as well as '80s dancehall, before and after the sleng teng!
