    Trinidad-born, Bristol-based vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Corysan releases his first new single in five years on the newly launched Nine Channel Records.

    He met producer/label boss Grant Dell in 2016, the pair hitting it off and collaborating on 2018’s ‘Hijacked’ single for the latter’s Legsman reggae imprint. Described as “proper righteous business” by Andrew Weatherall before spinning the single on his Music’s Not For Everyone NTL online radio show, Coreysan deeply intones his lyrics over Dell’s supremely deep heavyweight roots maneuvers. When Dell asked Weatherall’s long-time studio partner Nina Walsh to pick one of the three artists on his planned new label to remix shortly after his untimely passing in 2020, she selected Coreysan’s ‘Heavy Load’ not knowing Andrew had been such a major fan but, at that difficult time, related to the song’s positive punchline, “The burden that I carry here, can only make me stronger now.” Nina’s modern dub masterpiece graces the flip of Dell’s two mixes, her seismic bassline and other-wordly music perfectly complimenting Coreysan’s message represented in spatially planted extracts, along with new spirit-flying midsection. Now it’s time to let ‘Heavy Load’ into the world as a roots milestone from this unique artist, with enough extra weight to anchor it anywhere from sound systems and clubs to front room dancehalls. Those few years since its creation have given its timeless message of hope and defiance a deeper relevance in turbulent modern times - SOUNDS OF THE UNIVERSE EXCLUSIVE.
