Production began on New Again in late 2018. Giants of the Reggae world, such as Mr. Heptone himself, Horseman, Montreal’s Dr. Watson, and Roger Rivas of the Aggrolites were recruited for guest spots on the record. The original release was slated for mid-2020, but was unfortunately sidelined by the COVID 19 pandemic. To give fans a taste, Beautiful Things was released as a single, which has garnered a quarter-million streams to day. Against considerable odds, the group persevered and completed production in time for a November 2021 release.New Again showcases the evolution of Phonosonics’ sound. The group began with producer and multi-instrumentalist Spencer Cleave playing all instruments on the recordings, and this album includes one final song in that format. This provides an interesting contrast with the remainder of the album which has a live feel, with some tunes even being tracked live off the floor as a group.
Digital Download of album included with 2 bonus tracks (Dark-Haired Dub feat. Horseman and Dr. Watson and Me and Mrs. Jones feat. Leroy Sibbles)
