Top names from the world of beats and bass music have donated an exclusive track to the double CD compilation album Push Play in support of the leukaemia charity the African Caribbean Leukaemia Trust.
The compilation has been inspired by the untimely passing of Sonia Akow, a DJ, label A&R and PR associate, who was immersed in the scene until she died a year ago. Sonia was diagnosed with leukaemia in November 2012, and a plea was put out for a bone marrow donor. The beats and bass scene united to stage a benefit gig in March 2013, raising nearly £15,000 for various leukaemia charities, but sadly Sonia lost her fight for life on July 3 last year.
Released on August 25, the 25-track collection includes: the Ragga Twins with Aquasky, Deekline, the Freestylers, Atomic Hooligan, T-Power, Pyramid, Jay Cunning, Ben and Lex, the Moody Boyz, Rennie Pilgrem and Lawgiverz.
