WWW,
August 2012 -With an opening track like
Fullness' "The King Shall Return",
a massive DUB Version of his "Arise"
Riddim, the tone is set for the third
chapter in the Revolutionary Dub Vibrations
series. Don Fe and El Bib once more compiled
some very appreciloved DUB productions, and
not just their own!
Names like
Earlyw~rm, Fullness, Digikal Roots,
GadManDubs, Steve Steppa and Muflon DUB:
they will most certainly ring more than a
bell to those who have followed the Online
DUB Artist Community throughout the times of
the Internet. They're all present on this
22-track compilation. A wide variety of DUB
Styles, very well produced and in High
Quality. This album has music which will
certainly please the lovers of the better
DUB.
Just take
two tracks.
First,
already mentioned, the opening track. A true
opening track, a solid Steppers also present
on his album "Arise",
which features excellent singer Izyah Davis.
Full filtering and echoings galore! Then:
Prince Jamo's "Lioness Protects Her
Cub" is an analogue, old skool mix done
in a style that recalls the vibes of
Scientist and -indeed- Prince Jammy. It
takes a loooooooong time before the Drums
finally enters, while the bass is EQ'd to
the max. Too technical? Just listen!
It's really
nice to get acquainted with the wide variety
of styles there really is when it comes to
contemporary DUB producers. DUB has long
passed the time of being an obscure remix of
Reggae into the Culture that it has become
today, as this compilation
"simply" shows!
