So here we have it - three new remixes of "The Glow" single from RJD2´s last album "The Colossus." The first track comes from the Chicago heavyweight DJ duo Flosstradamus. They give the original a dancefloor-friendly makeover. Next up is the Paolo Palazzo remix. Paolo was the winner of "The Glow" remix contest - the public overwhelmingly voted for his futuristic flip with the super insane bass line! Lastly is a remix by a young buck, Candy Panther. This kid's demo was slick enough to land him a spot on the single, with a smooth, laid back mid-tempo club remix. Also includes "The Glow" official music video!

Carlton Livingston is one of the great, sort of lost singers of the early eighties dancehall scene. He's just released a new album, Bridge of Life and it's a killer. Under the production of Grant Phabao, Carlton's smooth style and voice made this album full of both dancehall mashers and lovers tunes. The sound is a cross between Groundation and more traditional 70's reggae from the island. Here's a selection of some of his earlier hits mixed with a few tracks from this new album. Selected and mixed by Grant Phabao!
