PRESS RELEASE: @SmoodFace Is Ready To Take Over The Industry!

Posted on by swadedavillain

As far as Producers go, Smoodface is definitely a name to be reckoned with. The Producer extraordinaire has been working tirelessly to establish a credible name for himself in the music industry. Originally from Jamaica, Smoodface migrated to the UK with one intention in mind, and that was to gain more exposure and opportunities through his music. He’s now teamed up with Glendevon Records, who saw his dream and decided to work together, to making this dream into a reality.

Smoodface bridges the gap between Reggae music and Pop music, creating something distinct and equally refreshing. With over 10 years experience in the business, he has delivered a string of hit charting music. His biggest success to date is getting his work playlist on one of the biggest Radio station in the UK, BBC 1XTRA. The songs that made their playlist include “Winter Swag” by Stylo G featuring himself and “Swag Tun Up” by Gappy Ranks featuring Russian, which was a great accomplishment for the producer.

Although he’s known widely as a Producer, Smoodface is also a noted Singer and Songwriter. His latest song “Make She Scream” has been doing tremendously well, especially on the International market and is gaining traction in the Caribbean as well. “So far I am very pleased with the responses that I have been getting, trust me it has been wonderful.”

The video for the single “Make She Scream” is doing very well and can been seen on local television channels such as Hype TV. For the rest of the year, Smoodface will be busy in the studio cooking up a storm to supply the demand for good quality production and music.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Carl Douglas – Kung Fu Fighting (1974)

Posted on by swadedavillain

Today’s Oldies Sunday Selection comes from Jamaican Recording Artist, Carl Douglas. Titled “Kung Fu Fighting (Buy It Here)“, this was produced by Biddu for PYE Records in 1974. At that time, Martial Art films (termed “Chopsocky“) were increasing in popularity worldwide (especially in Jamaica), and at a time during the rise of Disco music, Carl created it as a tribute.

“Kung Fu Fighting” didn’t start off as a hot single, and received no airplay five weeks since its release. After that it started gaining popularity in dance clubs and helped to make its entry into the UK Singles Chart at #42. After a while it rose to the top of the charts and stayed there for 3 weeks while it made its way to the US Billboard Hot 100 where it made it to #1. “Kung Fu Fighting” also went #1 in other countries including France, Austria, South Africa, Germany, and many more. It has been placed at #100 of VH1’s “100 Greatest One-Hit Wonders”, #1 in Channel 4’s “50 Greatest One-Hit Wonders” and was a part of a great moment in Pop Culture. In 1974 it was certified Gold, received a Grammy for “Best Selling Single“, played a role in the popularity of Disco music, and became one of the best selling singles of all time selling over 11 Million records worldwide.
