Initially released back in 2004, ‘Information Critic’ is a bumping rocksteady / hip hop track from Leeds MC Black Samurai, featuring vocals by UK dancehall legends The Ragga Twins and Daddy Freddy. Despite picking up radio plays at the time, it found its way into only a handful of selector’s boxes, one of whom was Nice Up founder DJ Shepdog, who has re-licensed the track and commissioned new remixes for 2011. First up, everyone's favourite badman Benny Page gives it a junglist relick, upping the tempo and dropping some classic dancehall vibes. Next, fellow Nice Up cohort J-Star delivers a moombahton-style rework, showing a new direction for this in-demand producer. Finally Ninja Tune rockers The Heavy - currently hitting it big in the USA with ‘How You Like Me Now’ - drop a head-nodding reggae / hip hop version to round this wax remix package off nicely.
