This is perhaps the most enlightening article I’ve ever read relating to reggae which doesn’t immediately start with Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry or Bob Marley, both of whom did wonders introducing both reggae and dub to the broader world. Chinese immigrants played a massive role in recording, promoting and playing reggae of an exceptional quality, and all respect is due to Jared Proudfoot of Bandcamp for his engaging history lesson, complete with music samples.
Read the article here. It’s worth your time.
I only expect the best from Habibi Funk, and I am not disappointed. Ahmed Ben Ali is a Libyan musician who combines North African music with dub and reggae sensibilities. Four tracks of bumping groove.
Powerful, punchy dub for the master of the genre, Lee “Scratch” Perry, courtesy of the legendary On-U Sound record label. Amazing to hear this in such a heavy, clear recording. My poor neighbors…
Ronnie Davis once led legendary reggae act The Tennors, but he also cut a few sweet-sounding singles, like this one where he partnered with bandmate George ‘Clive’ Murphy. Mellow, relaxing reggae for a calm, grey Sunday morning.
The dubby sounds of King Tubby are blasting away tonight, either terrorizing my poor roommates or making converts out of them. I’ll find out tomorrow.
Rather decent dub from one of the best in the genre, King Tubby.
