DUB MACHINIST AND I-PLANT - NO SMOKING AREA
DUBROOM MP3 ALBUM REVIEW

WWW, June 2010 - No Smoking Area is a Riddim EP in the DUB sense of the word. I-Plant, Hatman and Gary Dub are just three names who have showcased their work on the riddim and these names should ring a bell to those who know their EURODUB and their NET LABEL DUB.

More than niceness, this is definitely not the kind of music which would make a No Smoking Area occupied with slaveish followers of the next anti-smoking law in some or another country.This is the kind of music that makes the heart and soul of every lover of DUB rise up in joy.

Can't refuse!

HOT DROP - IT'S A REMIX THING

HOT DROP - IT'S A REMIX THINGDUBROOM MP3 ALBUM REVIEW

WWW, June 2010 - Get six different Dub engineers from all over the world to each do a track created by the Spanish based Roots Rock Reggae band Hot Drop and you get some very surprising material. After all, It's A Remix Thing.
The surprising element is of course the fact that the Spanish band has made a name with some more than crucial Roots Reggae releases in true Old Skool style from instruments to recording to mixing. That is something which you should not expect on this one, at least not from the top to the very last drop.
The Remix thing basically shows what can be done with old skool material when it is processed using contemporary techniques and styles. Styles such as Dubstep and Hip Hop. There's definitely material there for the Dub purists but It's A Remix Thing predominantly features Dub Fruits rather than Roots. Which isn't bad: It's A Remix Thing, after all...

HOT DROP - THE SECRET DUBS

HOT DROP - THE SECRET DUBSDUBROOM MP3 ALBUM REVIEW

WWW, June 2010 - Hot Drop is one of the hottest Reggae Bands in Europe, especially when it comes to Net Label releases. In "The Secret Dubs", we're remembered on the fact once again.


Unfortunately, there are only six titles in this release from the "A Quiet Bump" Net Label. Six very impressive tracks, that is. The mini album closes of with a digital remix by Jambassa, but that's only after we've experienced five crucially mixed and played DUB tracks in true Old Skool style.


After the tracks were recorded, they have gone all over the world from Brazil to Italy where they were mixed into the crucial tracks that we can hear after downloading the album for free. This is stuff you can't refuse and still maintain you love DUB Reggae.

RAS AMERLOCK - 2010 A BASS ODDITY

RAS AMERLOCK - 2010 A BASS ODDITY
DUBROOM MP3 ALBUM REVIEW

WWW, June 2010 - "Songs from the first decade of the 21st Century", Ras Amerlock writes about this 2010 release which signifies itself through it's old-skool approach of the Art of Dub.

In fact, the album basically contains a number of previously unreleased material by the American multi-instrumentalist and Dub engineer who has been working in the field of Reggae for quite a while now. Let's just mention the fact that he was a part of what was one of the first DUB oriented Net Labels: Jahtari.

Eleven titles, all of which get the very same dubwise approach. An approach we could easily recognize as old-skool even though there is some recognizable digital technology involved as well. Who cares: the result is what matters.

Eleven titles, all which give a good overview in the musical progress of Michael McCutcheon. A musical progression which is confirming his past productions and creating positive expectations for the many more releases which are hopefully to come from Ras Amerlock.

DUB TERMINATOR - DEMOS & REMIXES IN DUB
DUBROOM MP3 ALBUM REVIEW

WWW, June 2010 - DUB Terminator hails from the deep, deep south: New Zealand, to be exactly. In Demo's and Remixes in Dub (featured in Radio Dubroom 2010 #5), he presents 15 tracks of Dubs and Discomixes in a very special style that mixes Dancehall, Reggae and more R&B related vibes.

According to his biography at MYSPACE.com, the musical philosophy of the Dub Terminator was significantly formed when he was living as a youth in Jah Creation, far away from the so-called "civilized" world. All he was doing was developing his musical talents which led him to become member of many bands before he found himself as the Dub Terminator, terminating all the bad vibes and provide the online massive with some very inspirational sounds.
