LargeUp Premiere: Listen to Martei Korley’s “Agonzing” New Single

LargeUp creative director, photographer and co-founder Martei Korley teams up with some of Jamaica’s top musicians, including the legendary Sly and Robbie, for a new single channeling the classic sounds of Studio One and King Tubby’s.

“Agonizing,” produced by Delroy “Phatta” Pottinger (or, as it’s sometimes styled, “Fatta” with an F) channels the old-school Queen of the Minstrel riddim for a new-age steppers meets classic lovers rock feel. It’s the kind of track that’s sure to put you in a mood on an early summer’s day. Recorded at Kingston’s Anchor and One Pop studios, “Agonizing” features the handiwork of keyboardist Wrongmove and horns from Romeo of the Fab 5 band, along with the classic combo of Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare on drums and bass.

Press play below, look out for the video coming soon and hear more music from Martei here.
