Project Description

REVOLUTION BY GIANT PANDA GUERILLA DUB SQUAD FT. THE MOVEMENT

Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad’s fresh collaborative approach on their upcoming album Love In Time (out April 7 on Easy Star Records) – which finds the band leaning hard into the “squad” in their band name – is on full display on the record’s second single: “Revolution,” co-produced with Alborosie, and featuring Josh Swain of The Movement on vocals. The powerful track is available now and can be listened to here with a full music video to follow. 

The spirit of collaboration was truly in the air with the creation of this track. GPGDS bassist James Searl explained that “’Revolution’ was originally a late-night studio jam that we sent to Alborosie to see what he could cook up. ‘You want me to add the spicy sauce, yeah?’ he said. With that, he took the drums and vocals and crafted an absolute bomb of a musical collaboration, with horns from Milan and bass lines from Jamaica. We knew that this was the tune that we wanted our east-coast-grinding homie of nearly twenty years, Josh Swain, of the Movement, to spit hot fire on. Josh came with his southern sticky Goodie-Mob-a-licious rapid fire delivery to bring the song up to 1,000%. Exactly the kind of collaborative style we were going for as we dove deep into creating Love In Time.”

The initial back and forth between GPGDS and Alborosie helped shape “Revolution” into a song that can only be created by complete openness and trust in the process. Searl added, “That’s why we sent out half-finished ideas. We wanted to collaborate and be excited about hearing our music with a tweaked formula.”
