DON CARLOS - PROPHECY |
|
WWW,
June 2009 - In the year 1987, Rub a Dub
Music was still very much the style of the
time, even though we already had the Sleng
Teng revolution.
Six outstanding discomixes, sung by one
of the most heartical Reggae singers of all
time. Another Don Carlos showcase
album you simply can't refuse even though
the album seems to be out of print.

DON CARLOS AND GOLD - PLANTATION |
|
WWW,
June 2009 - Originally, the vinyl album had
6 extended tunes, but the CD version goes to
no less than ten long, great Rub a Dub
discomixes from the 1980's.
Sure, it's a rare album and that means it
cost a thing on the second hand
market.
Not for nothing, though.

MIGHTY THREE'S - AFRICA SHALL
STRETCH FORTH HER HANDS |
|
WWW, June 2009 - This album contains eight
more than superb titles from this relatively
unknown Jamaican vocal harmony group.
And that's not all: they all come with a
more than outstanding DUB counterpart, in an
all-killer-no-filler kind of quality.
"Africa Shall Stretch Forth Her
Hands": Highly Recommended!

MAD PROFESSOR MEETS SCIENTIST AT
THE DUB TABLE |
|
WWW, June 2009 - Even
Lee Perry's voice drops in, when the two
engineers meet at the Dub Table in Ariwa
Studio's. The riddims are varied, some are
mixed crucially where others might very well
be filed into the "Reggae
Instrumental" category. Allbeit, that
not all tracks are Reggae...
Indeed: It's time for a meet-up of
Scientist and the Mad Professor and that
means nothing is the way it seems.

MAD PROFESSOR - LOST SCROLLS OF
MOSES |
|
WWW, June 2009 - This 11 track album from
the year 1993 has it all: Bible Readings,
Middle Eastern melodies, and of course the
massive drum and basslines we're used to
hear from Ariwa Studio's.

MAD PROFESSOR - DUB YOU CRAZY
WITH LOVE |
|
WWW, June 2009 - It's not just, that he is
known for his original and creative DUB
mixes. A thing, for which he stands at a
lonely height when it comes to the Art of
DUB.
His originality includes original
concepts, too. What about this 16 track
collection of superb Dubs from original
Lover's Rock tunes produced by Neil Fraser,
aka Mad Professor, in his Ariwa Sound
Studio's?

MAD PROFESSOR - SCIENCE AND THE
WITCH DOCTOR (DUB ME CRAZY CHAPTER NINE) |
|
The year is 1989. Nuff and nuff things are
going on in the world as communism seemed to
collapse and the last decade of the 20th
century is dawning at the horizon.
Mad Professor is working on yet another
superb album in his DUB ME CRAZY series.
He's been doing it for the last seven years
and he's not about to stop either.

MAD PROFESSOR - EXPERIMENTS OF THE
AURAL KIND (DUB ME CRAZY CHAPTER EIGHT) |
|
After the introduction by Macka B, the 8th
chapter in the DUB ME CRAZY series opens up
with a very hard hitting steppers riddim.
The tone is set for yet another
collection of DUB tracks by one of the
masters in the discipline and his mysterious
set of effect devices.

MAD PROFESSOR - ADVENTURES OF A
DUB SAMPLER (DUB ME CRAZY CHAPTER SEVEN) |
|
Throughout the 1980's, Mad Professor set the
High Standards for DUB with his DUB ME CRAZY
series which started in 1982.
In times when the Jamaican studio's lost
their interest and turned to Dancehall,
Ariwa Sound kept on releasing one massive
document of DUB after the other. This is the
7th chapter, catching up with the Mad
Professor in 1987.

MAD PROFESSOR - DUB ME CRAZY
(CHAPTER ONE) |
|
Mad Professor's more than excellent DUB
series which started in the 1980's
definitely opened up the Art of DUB to a
wider audience while also putting himself
among the small group of top DUB engineers.
This is the original album that started
it all: Dub Me Crazy Part One. Plus two
bonus tracks, that is.
