Description
Following Chronixx‘s first mixtape Start A Fire in collaboration with Walshy Fire (Major Lazer) back in 2012, Roots & Chalice will ease the wait of Spanish Town’s singer first album planned for Summer 2016. Max Glazer & Kenny Meez of Federation Sound compiled more than 20 tracks & freestyle together and Chronixx delivered lyrics & flow on a very eclectic selection of beats on Roots & Chalice.
The mixtape features tracks from previous projects revisited on different beats, current songs that haven’t been part of any project and new original songs exclusive to this project either produced by the in-house production team (Zincfence Records/Special Delivery Music) or on classic instrumentals. The first track taken of Roots & Chalice is titled Majesty – New song recorded for the mixtape on the original version of Otis Gayle I’ll Be Around (Sound Dimension/Studio One) with some added guitare from Namdi of Zincfence Redemption. The second track is Spanish Town Rockin, a future classic and the third track is titled Sell My Gun produced by Teflon of Zincfence Records.
