Serani & Melloquence’s ‘Party Tun Up’ Single Turns Up on Beatport Reggae/Dub Top 10 Charts

Sunday, June 1, 2014

L

ess than two weeks after being officially released, ‘Party Tun Up’ has made its way on to the reggae/dub charts on Beatport, one of the largest online music stores. The single produced by Switzerland’s Johnny Roxx of Bikini Ape records debuted at number 32 on the Beatport radar just days after it was made available to buy online and has since made its way to number 10 on the chart. Both artistes are no strangers when it comes to this chart as Serani’s ‘No Games’ was a top seller back in 2009 and this marks Melloquence second time gracing this chart as his 2013 dubstep release ‘Rolling Up’ peaked at number 6.

 This collaboration is Melloquence’s second  effort with an international Billboard dancehall heavy weight as he recently collaborated with Elephant Man on the single ‘Hold Me’ featured as the lead single on VP Records & Weedy g Soundforce’s upcoming ‘Rise’ album.

  The young singjay is very much pleased with the attention his music is currently getting and feels motivated to do even greater things musically.

“The Beatports charts are based solely off music sales so for my music to reach there more than once just confirms to me that people actually like what I’m doing and I have genuine fans who purchase my songs. even in this age when music sales  worldwide is said to be at a low. This just motivates me to continue working on my craft so I can a better artiste.” Melloquence explained.

He wants his fans to listen out for his upcoming releases: ‘Target’ produced by UIM Records and ’Feel The Vibe’ on Frastwinz Music’s ‘Better Daze’ Rhythm.

'Reggae Gold' Release

Tuesday, July 14, 2009

Reggae gold is a glittering slice of the Caribbean - a tropical soundscape representing the diversity of reggae music.

Mavado's So Special is a taste of the raw fruity end of the spectrum, complete with controversial lyrics.

While Serani's massive radio hit, Playing Games, and Etana & Alborosie's Blessings, demonstrates a sweeter drop of romance.

The sizzling standout tracks include Estelle featuring Sean Paul on the international smash Come Over, and Jazmine Sullivan's Need You Bad - very refreshing!

The compilation features music direct from the native sons and daughters of the Jamaican Island from where reggae hails. The Jamaican Tourist Board (JTB) and VP Records have partnered to re-create the iconic "Welcome to Jamaica" image for the album cover.
