Conquer The Globe Movements Reach The Big Apple Next Week
I-Octane stands at the crossroads between dancehall dominance and the international appeal of roots reggae. His sophomore album, My Journey, is a crucial move in the strategic development of his brand, recorded to bring balance to one of the genre’s most versatile acts. “After building a dancehall campaign with No. 1 hits like “Gal Ah Gimme Bun” and “Wine & Jiggle” in 2013, I worked with DJ Frass to produce a classic sounding Reggae project,” said Octane. The album was recorded to showcase his range as an artist with the goal of affirming his position as one of the leading voices in contemporary reggae and dancehall. Next week Octane will continue his quest to “Conquer The Globe” when he touches down in NYC for a visit to the Strictly Boomshots show followed by an album launch concert at the storied NYC nightclub SOBs.

Brand New Exclusive Preview Of The My Journey Album
I-Octane has described his forthcoming album My Journey as an evolution towards a more rootical approach to the music. The dreadlocked dancehall singjay’s music has always exercised a certain level of consciousness in terms of lyrical content and sheer songwriting ability, the rhythm tracks and production favored a digital dancehall style over traditional live drum and bass reggae tracks. On this exclusive pre-release Octane brandishes his lyrical sword atop a warm and easy DJ Frass production that bridges the gap between new and classic. If this is any indication My Journey—which will be released Tuesday on independent Reggae imprint, Tads Records—is a journey we can’t wait to begin.
