DASECA productions goes conscious in it's latest release, 'Exodus', which was released on iTunes on Tuesday. Their first rhythm release since 'Genesis', which was released earlier this year, Exodus strived for a completely different vibe. DASECA producer Craig Harrisingh told THE WEEKEND STAR recently, "This is completely different from Genesis, it's not dancehall like that. Also, we worked with a different set of artistes on this one like Ifrica, Wayne Wonder and Tony Rebel." This is the first time the producing trio have worked with Ifrica and Wayne Wonder on their label. With 11 artistes on the rhythm, 'Exodus' has a socially conscious feel in terms of the subject matter discussed by the artistes. In It Mek Yuh Richer, DASECA's Bugle talks about the social inequity in society and the way in which poor people are treated as he sings, "always put we down, cause your car crisser, look like when yuh do dat it mek yuh get richer." In I Forgive You, Serani steps away from his club and relationship songs and talks aboutforgiving his hater, but sings, "never forget what you put me through." Queen Ifrica represents as the sole female on the rhythm with Hold the Faith, as she encourages persons to not let the "system" get them down. According to Harrisingh, it was a good vibe working with Ifrica as well as I Octane, who was the first to voice on Exodus. In Everytime You Touch Me, I Octane changes gears with a song about love and relationships. Assassin's Pay Attention talks about education and the struggles parents go through to educate their children, as he urges the youth, "my mother have to work too hard to send me go a school... this year mi nah gaze becaw mommy neva tek mi school money fi go buy false hair." Also on the rhythm are Voicemail, Tony Rebel, Kibaki, and Dexter Daps. Harrisingh said, "Exodus was released two weeks ago to the disc jocks and, so far, everybody love it, so is just to mek the right promotion now." Also coming out from the production house is a number of singles from the likes of Assassin among others, as well as a new rhythm 'Dancehall Again', which Harrisingh described as being "hard core, authentic dancehall".
