Dub Your Brains Out

Editorial Reviews
Album Description
Dub originates from the practice of dubbing instrumental, rhythm based versions of reggae songs onto the B-sides of 45’s. This reggae sub-genre became a legitimate and accepted style of its own as re-recordings from known engineers became popular. These "sound collages" were used to create dynamic musical interaction. DJs found that dancehall crowds and partygoers loved being given the opportunity to sing the lyrics themselves. This was seen by many reggae fans as stripping the music down to its purest essence. By 1976 the popularity of dub in Jamaica was second only to Rastafarian roots reggae. Island Records established the sound and found acceptance in the U.K. where roots reggae artists like Black Uhuru became just as popular for their wanderings into dub. Dub reverberates inside the mind providing sweet release from the stress of this Babylonian world.
