Having just topped the UK reggae chart with his Busy Signal and Stylo G-featured single, "Foundation", Cadenza follows it up with "Queens To Brixton", this time combining his powers with fellow producer Jakwob. On the pair's connection, Cadenza revealed "a few months back, I heard some of James' [Jakwob] new solo stuff and also the beats he was doing for Simz and it was all based around these really broken-beat, moody textures. I had some sketches on a similar tip so I shot him a text and we set up a day to work on some ideas." 

An intensely rhythmic riddim, its hypnotic sample sections (a Damian Marley vocal lifted from 2010's "As We Enter") breathe life into the instrumental, as its percussive breaks add further texture. Listen to the track down below.
