On this new remix by rocksteady/reggae legend Lee “Scratch” Perry, of course, the Bollywoodisms are filtered out. Which is cool, because it is fun to hear masters re-imagine songs by eliminating a definining elemenet and replacing it with their own sensibility. For Lee, that’s some skanking rhythms and his inimitable voice pairing up with Lizzi’s. Which makes sense, since the reggae and dub stylings Perry helped pioneer certainly made their way into other corners of the Gang Gang blueprint.
