Real To Reel



In 2001, the band released the album ..Prelaunch Sequence.. on the renowned Different Drummer label. Rise The Only Redeemer (feat. Vido) and Moving Together (feat. Wayne Martin) are the stand-out tracks on the album and are featured on Real To Reel. It was more than two years before Noiseshaper released their second album, The Signal, which is represented on Real To Reel by All A Dem A Do, You Take Control, Jah Dub and Dunk. Featuring the G-Corp-MC singer Juggla, a sound system veteran from Birmingham and a perfect vocalist for Noiseshaper, it toned down the house elements in favour of a deep, conscious reggae sound. The album Rough Out There, represented here by the TVS remix of Walls Of Silence, Kid Kenobi's remix of Bushmaster and two versions of the title track, was released in 2005 and is arguably Noiseshaper's most mature album. Juggla became a permanent member of the band, giving them a real front man and a highly distinctive vocalist. Noiseshaper's remixes effortlessly transport this message. The most prominent musicians to get a Noiseshaper remix so far have been Sly & Robbie, which is another giant accolade. The band worked their magic on Vice Vanity, giving it a decisively different spin. Another remix that displays the band..s sheer class is their version of Ari Up's wired Me Done, which they chiselled into a stomping blues rock-reggae track. And that brings us back to the title of this CD: where others have to constantly assert their realness, Axel Hirn and Florian Fleischmann simply are real. And as Noiseshaper they capture this on tape: From Real To Reel. Written by Andreas Müller, a music journalist (Spex, Riddim,…).
