Album Review: Get Funk A Dat Mi Seh by Tenza
Tenza’s Get Funk A Dat Mi Seh, released in 2011 under TMD Records, is a vibrant fusion of reggae, dance, and electronic vibes with a distinctive UK Garage twist. This album feels like a sonic journey through the streets of the UK and Europe, blending rhythmic beats with infectious energy. It’s not just music—it’s an experience that grabs your attention and refuses to let go.
One standout track is "Loco". From the first beat, it pulls you in with its pulsating rhythm and raw garage edge. The bassline hits hard, while the vocals add a playful yet gritty vibe. It’s one of those tracks you can’t help but move to—even if dancing isn’t really your thing. What sticks with me most about "Loco" is how effortlessly it balances chaos and control; it’s wild enough to get your heart racing but smooth enough to keep you hooked. You’ll find yourself hitting repeat more times than you’d care to admit.
Another gem on this album is "Dancing Mood". If there’s one song that screams “dancefloor anthem,” this is it. The synths shimmer like sunlight on water, and the groove is so hypnotic it practically forces your feet to shuffle. Listening to it feels like stepping into a neon-lit club where everyone’s vibing together. The way Tenza layers the melodies creates this dreamy atmosphere, making it impossible not to lose yourself in the moment. Honestly, it’s tracks like these that remind me why UK Garage has such a loyal following—it’s pure magic bottled up in soundwaves.
The other tracks—"Boom Shi" and "Murder"—also bring their own flavor to the mix. They’re darker, heavier, and pack a punch that shows off Tenza’s versatility. But truthfully, they don’t stick in my mind quite as vividly as "Loco" or "Dancing Mood." Maybe it’s because those two tracks feel like they were tailor-made for unforgettable nights out—or maybe I’m just biased toward anything that makes me want to dance till dawn.
Reflecting on Get Funk A Dat Mi Seh, what strikes me most is how Tenza manages to capture the essence of UK Garage without overcomplicating things. It’s bold, unapologetic, and refreshingly authentic. And here’s the unexpected part: listening to this album almost feels like eavesdropping on a conversation between genres. Reggae meets electronic, dance flirts with garage—and somehow, it all works beautifully.
So yeah, give this one a spin if you’re looking for something that’ll lift your spirits and make you move. Just don’t blame me if you end up breaking a sweat in your living room.
