Lining up for their first LP since they emerged in 2005, Florences Numa Crew is the latest lethal addition to Liondub Internationals growing roster and the first artist album from the label since Marcus Visionarys Humble. As pioneers of the scene in Italy, they are a landmark in independent music there with a broad-based sound that explores all aspects of global bass music including reggae, dubstep, jungle, and hip hop. Their first releases emerged in 2007 on the Elastica label in Italy, with side projects from the crews producers appearing under the names Voodoo Rebel and Digital Smokers, and by 2009 they moved on to form their own Erba label as well as releasing on EMI Italy, Moonshine Records, NoMad Records, Irish Moss Records, Police in Helicopter, and Convoy Unltd. New Underground Massive Alliance bursts out of the gates as a take-no-prisoners affair, rolling rugged Coki-style bass grunge, burning dancehall, proper jungle, and a slew of vocal guests including Mellow Mood, MC Kwality, Kg Man and more into a high-potency herbal cocktail for the global bass music massive. Reggae cuts like Warmonger (ft. Echo Ranks) and Sweet Aroma (ft. Kg Man) showcase the crew at their most mellow and sensitive, while B.M.X and Crusade are features for the producers in the crew to forward their dirtiest sounds. Dancehall legend Mr. Lexx, also known as Lexxus, comes dangerous with his star vocal appearance on the high-powered Kill the Whole a Dem. With its high-energy take on a diverse palette of sounds drawn from the cutting edge of global bass culture, Numa Crew come strong with their debut LP for Liondub International to bring ruckus worldwide in 2014.
