Moins d’un an après la sortie très remarquée du single « Quicksand », Stand High Records présente “Midnight Rock“, un nouveau single fondamentalement Roots, fruit d’une seconde collaboration entre Joe Yorke, Eeyun Purkins et Stand High Patrol.
Ce nouveau 7 inch, mixé à l’ancienne à Kerwax, reprend les codes traditionnels du genre en offrant en face A un vocal du chanteur anglais Joe Yorke et en face B la réponse façon « Deejay Style » de Pupajim. Deux tunes qui traitent des divisions inhérentes au fonctionnement des sociétés contemporaines et les opposent à cette forme d’unité qui naît et s’exprime de façon éphémère au coeur des dancehalls. Tous ensemble au même rythme dans la danse mais finalement seul, animé autant que contraint par une condition sociale individuelle, dès lors qu’il s’agit de reprendre le cours d’une vie.
D’une face à l’autre, sur un riddim bâti pour le soundsystem, les mots « Midnight Rock » résonnent comme une invitation à profiter du moment présent autant qu’à faire perdurer l’expérience collective une fois que les lumières se rallument, comme un appel à se préparer pour lutter ensemble et dès demain contre tout ce qui nous divise. “Midnight Rock“ comme l’heure de la danse. “Midnight Rock“, comme l’heure d’engager le combat.

Less than a year after the well-received release of “Quicksand”, Stand High Records presents “Midnight Rock”. A new fundamentally Roots 7” single, the result of a second collaboration between Joe Yorke, Eeyun Purkins and Stand High Patrol.
This brand new single was mixed the old school way at the Kerwax studio. In a true traditional roots reggae manner, the A side offers Joe Yorke’s vocal version while Pupajim’s “Deejay Style” reply sits on the flip. These two tunes address social divisions in our modern society, which is in contrast with the unity felt and temporarily expressed within the dancehalls. Grooving all together to the rhythm, fuelled and constrained by our individual social condition, as soon as the music ends we remain alone.
On the two sides, the words “Midnight Rock” resonate on a riddim built for soundsystem sessions. “Midnight Rock”, an invitation for all skankers to enjoy the moment and make it last after the lights come on, a call to fight together against what divides us. “Midnight Rock”, time to join the dance. “Midnight Rock”, time to engage in combat.

Lyrics “Midnight Rock“ (By Eeyun Purkins) :
I am a lover not a fighter,
And Midnight is a lovers time,
Hold your partner close and ready,
It’s ,
And once the moonlight has been and gone,
We have to move in a new direction,
Because we can’t move together with so much separation,
Midnight Rock ... Midnight Rock ...
I’m a fighter and a lover,
Now the morning time has come,
we’re One stones throw from a riot,
If I throw the rock will it be done?
But for now we rock and groove,
Midnight is here,
So lovers find each other sip your stout or drink your beer,
Midnight Rock ... Midnight Rock ...
I am a lover not a fighter,
And Midnight is a lovers time,
Hold your partner close and ready,
It’s ,
And once the moonlight has been and gone,
We have to move in a new direction,
Because we can’t move together with so much separation,
Midnight Rock ... Midnight Rock ...
