In the wake of Mungo’s Hi-Fi’s recent tour of NZ we are currently stocking a range of their 12″ singles. Apart from being Glasgow’s premier reggae sound system, Mungo’s have in recent years branched into the area of production presenting a great variety of vocalists old and new over their original digital roots and dancehall rhythms. Released on their own Scotch Bonnet and Scrub A Dub labels, their productions range from 80′s style digital steppers through to 90′s dancehall and minimal dubstep beats.
