New Zealand reggae-soul legends, The Black Seeds, are pleased to release REFABRICATED: Fabric Remixes & Rarities– a tasty selection of unreleased tracks, remixes & versions from their 2017Fabric album.   

The 6-track companion EP features 3 new, unreleased tracks from the Fabric sessions, as well as album re-workings from the likes of  DJ Mu  (Fat Freddy’s Drop)MC Gardna  (UK),  Israel Starr (NZ)  &  Deep Fried Dub  (AUS). 

The Black Seeds have earned a reputation for rocking dance floors around the world, including main stage slots at the UK’s Boomtown Fair and Beautiful Days Festivals. 

 With 140,000 albums sold worldwide, and multi-platinum selling albums to their name, The Black Seedshave gone from humble beginnings to take their boundary crossing reggae fusion to the world, becoming one of New Zealand’s most loved bands in the process and spearheading New Zealand’s internationally renowned roots movement alongside acts such as Fat Freddy’s Drop and Katchafire.  

Firmly rooted in the bass-heavy Jamaican sounds that inspired the birth of the band, over the past two decades The Black Seeds have continued to push the boundaries of reggae without compromising the music’s heart. Seamlessly blending funk, soul, dub and Afrobeat into their reggae foundation, the result is a  Black Seeds  sound that stays true to their own South Pacific roots. 

The band’s progressive 6th studio album Fabric was released successfully in 2017, reaching #3 on the U.S Billboard Reggae Album chart & NZ album charts, and #3 on UK & German iTunes Reggae charts. 

REFABRICATED: Fabric Remixes & Rarities is out now on all digital platforms.
