Born in small recording studios in Kingston, Jamaica, reggae

dub or `version' was the offspring of a few electronic wizard reggae

producers. Dub is what would have happened when these producers took

pre-existing reggae tracks, edit out the vocals as well as most

accompanying instruments (except the rhythm section) and drop them in and

out of the mix. Echoes and reverbs and rebounds and swells and stretches

were added - generally creating a fully mind-and-body bending, primitive

yet sophisticated, techno-atavistic, root futurist kind of minimal

hypno-trance music. By pulling the instrument and vocal tracks in and out,

the producers formed an exciting rhythmic tease, a sort of musical fan

dance in which one part of the piece was revealed, then covered, only to

showcase yet another element. From the moment this new sound was unveiled

in the dance halls, dub fever raged throughout Jamaica. Traveling sound

systems provided the vibe - created by two turntables, a few huge

amplifiers, and a bunch of outrageous characters - the DJ's or toasters.

good work shen!! cheers!!

 

sounds ok doesnt it really?

 

bet the place is full of sketchy rastas though!!

Who is it you're going to see?

 

Jah Shaka and Aba Shanti are 2 of the best on the scene - these 2 know about bass, and are well worth seeing.

Saying that, it's not really advisable if you get sick easily - have heard of people puking cos the bass was so heavy ... it's even been known to rattle the fillings out of peoples teeth

Whoever it is you're seeing, i'm sure you'll have a great time and meet some top people there

dunno whos on to be honest! mate just sent me a txt askin if i fancied - thought mays well do i aint got [censored] all else to do tonight! i like bass so sounds good to me!
