STEPPIN' DUBS

MESSIAN DREAD - STEPPIN' DUBS
DUBROOM MP3 RELEASE



TRACK DESCRIPTIONS

In the "Sugar and Spice" tradition, this release contains two steppers tunes, each one with their own specific vibe. From an upfull Dub of Ireness, we go over to a much more militant and solid tune in almost eight minutes of Dub Niceness.

1. LOVER DUB
Lover Dub starts off rather joyful, only to get into some serious Dub mixing after just a few seconds. As the drum and bass play an upfull line, taking a break every now and then, all kinds of instruments and effects are taken to their limit. Upfull, but not lightweight!

2. WARRIOR DUB
As the introduction roll is soaked in echo's, only the first few tones of the horn section are heard before they fade in even more delay. It's the start of a serious steppers tune, warrior style.

DUB IN 4D

MESSIAN DREAD - DUB IN 4D
DUBROOM MP3 RELEASE



TRACK DESCRIPTION

This hard steppers track breaks through the 4th dimension with excessive use of the echo device. As the drum and bass play a more-than-solid line, the tempo of the delay keeps changing.

DUB In 4D plays as much with time (the fourth dimension) as it plays with the music. It's best enjoyed when played at maximum volume!

A WHO TRAIN THE BASE?

MESSIAN DREAD - A WHO TRAIN THE BASE?
DUBROOM MP3 RELEASE



TRACK DESCRIPTION

Some build on the Rock, and some build on the sand. It's all about foundation, or: The Base. To be more specific: about a group who call themselves "The Base". We know them better under their Arabic name Al Qaida.

This group is said to be led by a guy called Osama Bin Laden and is generally considered to be responsible for the terrible events at September 11, 2001 as well as a lot of other terrorist activities.

Al Qaida, however, is nothing more than a CIA project which can be verified by diving into history. September 11 was nothing less than an Inside Job which can be verified by diving into the enormous wealth of information that has been uncovered by many researchers.

When the official investigation into September 11 was held, almost everyone did their best to keep the truth from surfacing. Some tried to speak the truth, but they were removed from the room by police.

This solid One Drop track is based on an audio clip taken at the official 9/11 hearings. A man is removed from the room, but as the police grabs him, he managed to shout: "Remember This: Your Government Funded And Trained Al Qaida".

A CULTURAL DUB

MESSIAN DREAD - A CULTURAL DUB
DUBROOM MP3 RELEASE



TRACK DESCRIPTION

This four-minute track combines a relaxed atmosphere with some rather intense DUB mixing as all kinds of effects are applied over an Ire riddim.

The tune is a celebration to the fact that DUB Music started in Jamaica and has become the source of inspiration for just about every self-respecting producer of contemporary electronic music.

CONSIDER I

MESSIAN DREAD TRACK "CONSIDER I" AVAILABLE FOR FREE DOWNLOAD



This is the 5th track of the album "Showcase".

"Consider I" is a heartical prayer to Jah. A prayer that naturally follows the lyrics of "Yesus Messiah".

Starting of with a few lines of Dub, in which it becomes clear that this one is faster and more danceable than the previous one (of the album). At a certain moment, the horns starts playing a theme and the singing begins.

During the vocal part, there's some Dub style mixing going on as well, but not too much. The more heavy mixing comes as soon as the last line is sung and soaked into a reverse effect that takes you straight into some heavy, heavy Dub.

FLYING SERPENTS / THE HEALER (DUBWISE)

ME ZION DREAD



FLYING SERPENTS / THE HEALER (DUBWISE)


Two DUB tunes: a militant Hardcore DUB and an Ire tune. They symbolically represent two different spiritual situations as we move forward to Mount Zion.



FLYING SERPENTS DUBWISE

A Hardcore DUB, also known as Last Iwa Steppers. Spiritual warfare galore in this one, as we trod upon the flying serpents in the Holy and All-Powerful Name of the Divine Saviour Yesus Kristos!

THE HEALER DUBWISE

After a storm, there must be a calm. Walking with JAH will often bring you to green pastures, where you can eat and rest. This DUB is an audio-picture of such a green pasture. Everything cool, you know. Don't worry, for the Good Shepherd protect His sheep of His pasture, and others too.

MESSIAN DREAD - ENTER THE DUB ZONE (NET SINGLE)

MESSIAN DREAD - ENTER THE DUB ZONE (NET SINGLE)



Creating a new set of music in the Dubroom Studio involves a lot of work and a lot of time. Months will pass, before some substantial material is produced.

Here's how it works.

A basic riddim is constructed and a basic Dub is mixed to see if there's some vibe in the tune. This is done about 50 times before they're voiced and worked on to a deeper level. So yes, that takes a year.

This track is such a riddim. Basic, the result of about 5 hours work.

Niceness still, you know...

It has a little bit of experimentation with a voice machine and some serious abuse of the flanger, a cool One Drop rhythm and a relaxed bass line.

May it brighten up you day, as it's mixed with love for DUB and intended to be a little blessing for whoever might hear it.
