May 2007 - It's not just, that part 2 of the
Echo chamber's excursion into DUB Poetry
enlarges our knowledge on this underrated
form of Reggae. But that truly is a reason
to download another three-hour show full of
great drum and bass driven music!
BROADCASTER
COMMENTS: Week 2 of the KFAI Spring
Pledge Drive and the doctors of dub put
together a heavy, heavy show!
First
off, we did part 2 of "Word Beat I Powa",
our annual dub poetry/poetry/spoken word
special. From our pal Planet Jackson (from
On the Wire , BBC Lancashire) we had 2 cool
poems from dub poet Benjamin Zephaniah
(including the hilarious "Talking
Turkeys").
From
the Jamaican dub poets Royal African
Soldiers we received a history lesson
through Ginsu's telling of the
"Glorious Past." One of LKJ's
dreadest tracks ever, "Five Nights of
Bleeding" kept the dub poetry thing
going.
Then
we returned to beat poet Jack Kerouac for a
few excerpts (with Paul Haig's "Cinematique"
providing some jazzy background). DJ Swiss
added the trippy poetry of Tarwater (with
the track "Lower Manhattan Pantoum").
One
poem we repeated from last week was
"Never Here", by e.g. bailey.
Rounding out the "Word Beat" was
one great Jamaican "toaster" that
we missed last week, the incomparable Big
Youth (backed by some heavy Twilight
Circus).
On
top of this we had a bunch of new music from
Up, Bustle, & Out, Finn the Giant,
Doctor Echo/Who Knows, Messian Dread, Maimon,
The Storytellers, Cherine Anderson, Natural
Black (w/ Twilight Circus), Luciano, Library
Science, and more. Finally, we got a taste
of the Mad Professor live show (at Martyrs'
in Chicago), as recorded by the
TurnTableTerrorist of Echo Beach (WLUW-FM).
Dread....beat...and
Dub!
