ZIGGY MARLEY - JAMMING IN THE RAIN

ZIGGY MARLEY - JAMMING IN THE RAINDUBROOM MP3 REVIEWMore from/about This Artist
WWW, July 2011 - It wasn't directly the intention, not even on the playlist: there was some spontanious impulse within Ziggy Marley which made him say "Jammin, Jammin" to the band as they played live in Sao Paulo (Brasil). The result is a spontanious, but tight performance of the well known track by Ziggy Marley's father.
The track clearly shows how Ziggy Marley has made his own particular way and style of doing the musical works. It's clear he know the track inside-out, how could it be any different, but he and the band definitely build on top of it. Nice Dubby parts, nuff improvisations as well ("Jammin in the Rain"), while they thought that "Jamming was a thing of the past" it's still going strong in this 21st Century Time and Iwa!

VIBRONICS - SAFE IN THE DUB/STRIVE

VIBRONICS - SAFE IN THE DUB/STRIVE VERSION
DUBROOM MP3 REVIEW
More from/about This Artist

WWW, July 2011 (From the Archives) - The specific sound of Vibronics lands very well into the ears of the lover of the better UK DUB. This will not be different with the two free tracks reviewed on this page. "Safe in The Dub" and "Strive Version" are truly some gems for the heart and soul.

"Safe In The Dub" is an up-tempo steppers rhythm with a monotonous bassline, sweeping synthesizers, flanged skanks and a couple of melodic lines here and there. Instruments are very well dropped in and out during the mix, the drum and bass keep everything flowing: this is the works of a Heavyweight DUB Champion and so it is.


"Strive Version" opens up with some crucial singing in sound and lyrical content, then everything turns into a huge echo, the bass and the drum drop in and we know we're into yet another riddim by the mighty Vibronics who seem to can do no wrong when it comes to musical productions. Skillfulness galore!

YUANAN - RETORNO AL ORIGENDUBROOM MP3 ALBUM REVIEWNet Label Website

WWW, July 2010 - Even though you have to be able to understand the Spanish language in order to overstand the lyrics, it's clear that Spanish based Roots singer Yuanan delivered a more than fine Net Album in this July 2011 release by the Neblina Sound Net Label.

Yuanan knows how to ride a Roots Reggae riddim, that one is for sure. Roots Reggae, played by players of instruments who know what they do. Just like releases from Spanish Reggae bands such as Hot Drop and the Emeterians, Retorno al Origen contains 12 extremely tight Roots Reggae riddims which just cannot be denied their quality. The album closes of with an acoustic Spanish re-make of one of the riddims.

Twelve Roots Reggae riddims, crucially voiced by Yuanan, whose style of singing has a lot of Middle-East vibes. Because he sings in the Spanish language, those who are not able to understand the words have to go with the vibrations delivered by the talented vocalist. This is completely achieved in the Dubroom's view, one reason to add the album to the Dubroom's CreativeCommons download catalogue.

Another aspect of the CC copyright is, that no money should be made and therefor this album is offered to you free of charge. For more specific information, look to the information in the archive.

It's not just the concept of a "Dub to Dub Showcase" which should be recognized as Iriginal, Hatman's music is kind of Iriginal as well. It is clear that he knows his instruments and has some pretty in-depth ideas about production and engineering as well. From the crucial French Dub Released (FDR) Net Label: the first installment of Hatman's contribution to the Online Dub Massive. Nuff Thanks!
