VARIOUS
ARTISTS - FIRE DUB REVOLUTION
DUBROOM
MP3 ALBUM REVIEW |
| WWW,
August 2010 - With 500 hard copies pressed,
this free and legal online release by the
crucial FRENCH
DUB RELEASED NET LABEL even
has some bonus tracks attached. Yes, here is
another compilation of Dub tracks in several
Dub styles, all of them more than
recommended and beyond!
"Fire
Dub Revolution" is definitely one of
the most interesting releases by the FDR,
which says something given the constant
quality of the music the Net Label has
blessed the Online Dub Reggae Community with
already. It took the label one year more
than they expected, but it definitely paid
off musically. Hopefully, it will also pay
off financially for the label even though
French Dub Released has a non-profit nature:
They did press 500 hard copies of the album
which -at the time this is written- is about
to be available for purchase.

VARIOUS
ARTISTS - DUB ACT
DUBROOM
MP3 ALBUM REVIEW |
| WWW,
July 2010 - the French based
"Paris Dub Activitys" Net Label
was founded back in 2005 already. Their
first compilation "Dub Act"
contains eight excellent digital pieces of
Dub Masterworks from the French Capital.
Improvisation,
even to a Jazzy level. Minimalistic
electronica, even to a Techno level. Between
these two extremes can only be one thing:
DUB. Exactly this, just what Dub can do, can
be heard in "Dub Act". Everything
is there, there are even tracks you would
definitely like to space out to on your
I-pod or Hi-Fi.

DIGIKAL
ROOTS - LET THERE BE VERSION
DUBROOM
MP3 ALBUM REVIEW |
| WWW,
July 2010 - Based in Huddersfield (UK),
Digikal Roots is an active member of the
DUBARK.com community as well as other DUB
scenes. His productions are perfectly is the
style you would expect from the brethren:
hard, digital roots music that just screams
to be played at sounds and shows
specializing in the genre.
In
"Let There Be Version", already
his second Net Album, we're being treated
with no less than fifteen usually
outstanding tracks, full of vibes and full
of positive energy. Catchy riddims, nice
production, not a thing to ignore. There's a
lot of versatily in the riddims, they each
seem to come with their own kind of merging
of styles even though everything becomes one
again in the album.

MP3 ALBUM REVIEW |
WWW,
July 2010 - With a track featured in Radio
Dubroom 2010 Episode 10,
this compilation of French DUB artists and
producers is a valuable collection, and not
just for selectors of Sounds and Shows. It's
a total Dub experience for the listener and
lovers of EURODUB and ROOTS.
Those who have been reading the
Dubroom Reviews and listening to the
reviewed material and podcasts, have already
met de crème de la crème of the French Dub
scene: Hatman, I-Plant and The Dub
Machinist, to name just three. Yes, all
three are represented with a track on this
very fine compilation by the www.reggae-bordeaux.com
website. Different styles and vibes come
perfectly together in the 12 tracks.

DUB
AKOM AND FAIANATUR EP
DUBROOM
MP3 ALBUM REVIEW |
| WWW,
July 2010 - DUB Akom is a French Based band,
specialized in backing up Dancehall
vocalists such as Jah Mason and Sizzla. With
that, they are a bit different than other
bands we know from the French scene which
seem to be more focused on Roots and Dub. In
this four-track EP with French based
vocalist Faianatur, this vibe is perfectly
captured.
Don't
expect strictly Dancehall vibes on the EP:
it opens with a contemporary Roots like we
know it from the German band Firetime and
others. The second title comes in Dancehall
style, we can hear why Jah Mason chooses to
work with Dub Akom. Track number three,
"Turban", again in Contemporary
Roots style gives Faianatur the opportunity
to introduce himself, his style and his
philosophy.
