The Tokyo-based producer transforms the original, while keeping true to the essence of the original, whose lyrics meditate on greed and destruction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMakyo has charted his own course through the world of dub, often with an eastern or tribal twist, since the early 90s, working with collaborators like Bill Laswell, Natacha Atlas and Muslimgauze, but with this release, he's entering a new phase. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'I've listened to this song for years,' notes Makyo, ' and it just felt more relevant than ever when I started working on it in 2024, with all the wars, election madness, wildfires, inflation and nuclear posturing. The mood just seemed to reflect where people were at.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHaving overcome crippling tinnitus and hyperacusis (to the point that he couldn't even listen to music for several years), he's finding joy in the past whilst looking to the future, with this sparse and bittersweet version of Talisman's tune the first in a series of contemporary covers he has planned.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003ch2\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eThings Ah Get Tuff\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThings Ah Get Dub\u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dubmission Records\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reggae\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRun Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9:02 mins\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0       \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\/12\/25\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 760137196402\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"DUBMISSION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46914932474105,"sku":"DUBM019","price":11.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0815\/4889\/files\/DUBM019.jpg?v=1759761100","url":"https:\/\/mvdshop.com\/products\/makyo-things-ah-get-tuff-7-inch","provider":"MVD Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
