With Major Lazer’s sophomore LP on the horizon, the Mad Decent collective seems to be getting back into island mode. The label just dropped the reggae-influenced Badman Rave EP from “Original Don” producers Party Squad last week, and now they’ve put us on to this brand-new release from a resurgent South Rakkas Crew (a/k/a D Rakkas), of Chinkuzi riddim fame.

It’s been a minute since we’ve heard anything new from South Rakkas Crew. The multinational (Canada and Florida-based) production team were detonating all sorts of riddims and remixes in the mid 2000s, most notably the Sizzla and Aidonia-voiced Chinkuzi, but have gone mostly quiet these last few years. Earlier this week, Mad Decent informed us about their latest venture, Nuff Remixes, Vol. 1, a full-length LP of remixes by other producers of South Rakkas tunes like “Bun Up 3000″ (featuring Capleton), now available on iTunes. Stream the whole thing on Soundcloud, and download Schlachtofbronx’s “Bun Up 3000″ remix here.
