Since there's been a lot of talk about Material lately, I thought I
should mention that I recently heard a few seconds of a new EP with
Material backing up Jamaican reggae star Yellowman.  What an interesting
combination!  It's hard to judge it having heard so little of it, but
in it are evident elements of both reggae and fusion, with maybe a little
more fusion than reggae.  The DJ said the collaboration was set up by
the record company in an effort to broaden Yellowman's horizons and make
him more popular outside of Jamaica.
