Chronixx and The Zincfence Redemption in 2014 at Reggae Jam, these young artists have come a long way in a short space of time. Reviving Reggae has been at the top of their agenda list and believe me they seem to be getting the job done.
For the past 2 years, ever since my first encounter with Chronixx and The Zincfence Redemption in a mangy little club somewhere in Vienna, there has been so much transformation in everything this group does. A true revolution has taken place and their metamorphosis has transformed internationally.
I can, but only say to myself at this point that I saw this coming. Proudly standing at the front of the stage a took a few deep breathes not even able to sing along, reminiscing on our first encounter and where and how their music has brought my understanding of the reggae culture even higher level. Emotions evoked from the lyrics from the songs "Warrior", "Spirulina" and "Here comes Trouble" and even more I felt how contagious it just naturally came with every single person who stood there watching them perform.
They have not only broken through what the rest of media calls a glass ceiling but have given the words Reggae Revival its true definition.
Thank you to Reggae Jam and Chronixx and The Zincfence Redemption for the phenomenal work and passion they put into what they do!
