Manasseh has produced, mixed, written, and remixed music for many other artists and labels, including Reggae Roast records, Foundation records, Digi Signal records, Dubkasm, Soothsayers, Emiliana Torrini, Pama International, Resonators, The Drop, J Star, The Trojans and Rootikal records amongst many others.

Brother Culture shows no signs of slowing down, continuing to inspire new generations of listeners and artists alike.
EARL16
