DJ Pamplona turns roots reggae into a cross-continental call to action with “Emergency”

Pamplona Beats is starting a new chapter with its first 7" vinyl release. "Emergency" comes with meaning, weight, and soul. DJ Pamplona, who is Brazilian-American, made the song. The track has roots in classic reggae but a clear message for today. This is music that wants to be felt and moves on.

"Emergency" pairs DJ Pamplona's steady, experience-based production with Eesah's voice. Eesah is a rising Jamaican reggae and dancehall artist who is known for being modern and thoughtful. Eesah's delivery has a sense of urgency without rushing and a sense of conviction without being pushy. His voice naturally rides the groove, taking the listener through ideas that are deep, grounded, and aware, which fits perfectly with the song's title and emotional direction.

The instrumental base is big and goes all over the world. Khemis Vybnation arranged the song in Jamaica, and DJ Pamplona made it. There are many experienced musicians in the band, which makes the song strong. Franklyn Bubbler's keyboards give the music warmth and movement, and Almando Mundo's guitar playing gives it depth and a calm drive. The deep, steady bassline from Delroy Wormbass keeps the song in the roots reggae style and keeps the beat going. Geovane, David, and Heverson, a Brazilian horn trio, play trombone, sax, and trumpet lines that give the song a strong, living breath.

It seems like "Emergency" was put together with care, but not too much. The mix is respectful of the genre's past while still sounding new. It gives the message room to get across, and especially right as a vinyl release because it adds to the song's natural energy and timeless meaning. DJ Pamplona introduces a sound that is based on culture, working together, and being aware. This makes "Emergency" a powerful and important first statement for Pamplona Beats.
