Loop are excited to present the new release from a unique musical project, Classic Hits In A Reggae Groove, a project which re-imagines a range of timeless hits with the unforgettable vocals of the original performers. Jamaican band Kingston Sound System then provide the instrumentation to recreate the songs in an authentic reggae style.

The latest release is one of the most impactful tracks of the 1980s, Bronski Beat’s ‘Smalltown Boy’.

This new imagining of ‘Smalltown Boy’ combines the original vocals from Bronski Beat frontman Jimmy Somerville alongside authentic reggae instrumentation. The sense of longing on the original vocal is still present, this time dripping in dub and live horns. Kingston Sound System’s version places this iconic dancefloor track with a reggae groove, creating a new interpretation which sounds as perfectly paired as the original.
