June 2011 - The long wait is over:
widely anticipated throughout the online Dub
community, here is the third chapter of the
phenomenal Italian Dub Community Showcase
serial. Fifteen titles, thirty tracks, and
once again the selection is stronger than
strong. Consciousness and Dubwise galore,
this is definitely a very precious gift from
the Italian DUB Community to the World Wide
DUB Massive. Respect is more than due!
A precious
gift it is, indeed. There is no reason for
anyone to consider the fact that this free
Net Album was released under Creative
Commons Copyright to be a sign of a low
quality contents. This is a sign of life
from a very vibefull Italian DUB Community
which cannot be refused or even denied.
The fifteen
different names range from the more well
known names in Dub land like the Alambic
Conspiracy, Dub Engine and Wicked Dub
Division to artists like Cultural Sound
System of whom not so much material is
released via the Net Label channels. A
Serious selection fe true, we're speaking
about stricktly High Quality Low Bass Roots
Reggae, showcase style.
Even though
this is extremely difficult to choose,
nevertheless, two highlights.
Voiced by
Idren Natural, "No More War" by
Cultural Sound System is a hard hitting
Steppers track. The vocal part is actually a
discomix and the Dub is superb. This is the
kind of tune you want to listen to again and
again, both for the message and the music
Another
hard hitting Steppers which stands out is
"Hunger/Hunger Dub" by Dub Shiloh.
The track starts of with sounds, after which
the up-tempo drum and bass line pop in the
mix. The first mix might be kind of crucial,
the second mix (officially entitled Hunger
Dub) really is. This one will keep you
jumping all the while, especially with some
better speakers.
All in all,
Italian DUB Community Showcase 3 was more
than worth the wait, the anticipations were
not in vain. There's unity and cooperation
in this community, no partiality and no
competition.
This is a
serious selection of some heavy-duty,
heavyweight Euro Dub and Roots you just
cannot refuse!
