Marlon Asher x Lion Twin, Home Grown Mixtape: This one is a Trinidadian reggae affair straight. Another big combination from reggae staples Lion Twin at the boards this time alongside the original T&T ganja farmer Marlon Asher. Recorded soundsystem style, this one captures the energy of a live dance with Lion Twin selecting tunes with Marlon up front.
